THE amazing vagaries Of the
weather during the past few

THE amazing vagarles Of the
weather during the past few
months - devastating floods
first IN the old world and then In
the new; a warm Winter in Alaska,
such as has never been known there
before, coinciding with a severe
Winter here; an unprecedently early
and abundant release Of the icebergs
from Greenland, and their dlsas-
trous invasion Of the steamer lanes;
a late Spring In the United States,
with sudden and violent changes OF
temperature; snowstorms In March;
cold and warm waves abruptly fol-
lowing each other in April and May;
thunderstorms In early May; a
series Of terrific tornadoes sweeping
whole towns to destruction In the
West and Southwest - all these
things reawaken interest in the
question Of the influence Of sunspots
upon the weather. Interest that Is
emphasized by the fact that out
bursts of such spots have lately oc-
Cured, TO which some observers at
tribute all this unwonted atmos-
pheric disturbance.
Some go as far as to aver that
they can predict great storms and
weather changes by means of the
spots on the sun. Among these is
Father Picard. of the Santa Clara
College Observatory. California, who
ascribes sunspots to the influence of
the larger planets. Inasmuch as the
positions Of these planets can be

rsakes spots burst out, the posi-
bility Of predictions like those that
Father Picard and others have made
cannot be denied, provided that we
grant their assumptions Father
Picard claims that his past p.edic-
tions have been verified Ito the very
date" and he makes another series
for May. and suggests that one can
be made for June, based on "a great
solar manifestation" which French
astronomer has foretold for that
month.
In view OF these things 1t becomes
highly important to review what the
leaders in astronomy have learned,
and believe, concerning the influence
OF sunspots on the earth.
First. what are sunspots?
Recently 1t has been discovered
that sunspots are vortexes. in which
the whirling motion carries matter
from the surface outward. They
have been likened 70 wate-spouts al
sea, the trumpet-shaped part being
at the top, and the material within
being wbirled upward.
Since there Is a great variety OF
substances In the sun, such as iron.
calcium, silicon, sodium. copper.
magnesium, and in short almost
every element known to us on the
earth, and since these substances
are brought into violent frlctional
contact by the whirling motion, 1t is
believed that powerful charges of
electricity are produced in the spots.

the temperate zones only when the
earth's magnetism is greatly and
violently disturbed. Such disturb
ances generally occur coincidently
with some sudden outburst around
a hie sunspot- In fact, 1t has
now come to be recognized that the
association of sunspots with the

aurora borealis Is of the most inti-
mate character, and that whenever.
the average number and size OF
sunspots increases, as 1t does period
ically about every eleven years,
the number and brilliance Of the
auro-al displays increase also. When
there are few sunspots there are few
aurorae.

Arkansas Valley Crop $1,000, 900.

Pucblo.-The crops in the Arkansas
valley OF Colorado are expected to
bring approximately s9.OOO.OOO this
year. The estimate Is based upon ac.
tual figures. taken from the number
Of acres planted to the various crops,
and does not include the fruit In the
Canon City district.
Without the question OF doubt this
will be the most prosperous year iu
the history of the whole valley, and
business already is brisk In antcipa-
ton Of the heavy crop returns.
The five leading crops will be
wheat. $2.975.0OO: sugar beets, $2,5S7,-
COO; alfalfa. $l.40O.000; oats, $l,2l0,-
900 and cantaloupes $4,000, making
a total OF sS.4lS.5O0. TO this will have
to be added the amounts received for
all Of the minor crops, no estimate
upon which has been furnished.
In the opinion OF well.posted men In
the valley the railroads are going to
experience difficulty In providing
enough box cars to haul the crops
away, and vigorous efforts already are
being made to see that proper provi-
sion Is made for their transportation.
