GAUGING DOWNFALL OF RAIN
Scientific instruments Have Made IL
a Matter of Absolute Mathe-
NAUTICAL Precision.

Few people really understand how
rain is measured. We often read IN
the newspaper that so many inches
Of rain have fallen during a certain
period, but It is difficult to realize
what an inch OF it actually means.
The British Rainfall association have
years records of rainfalfs in ALI parts
of the United Kingdom. They" have
reports from several thousand sta
lions, which are sent in by people
who work the business as kind
of hobby. There are several wooden
structures now in use for measuring
rain, and these are known as
gauges" The most shllful is a con-
triganes with a funnel at the top,
through which the waaa-- passes into
cup-receiver The weight OF the
rain automatically works pencil.
This marks on sheet Of paper wound
round a cylinder, and when 1t has
marked in this fashion two-tenths OF
an inch, the cup tits over and empties
the contents. The pencil returns TO
its former position, and the same little
device is repeated necessarily until the
rain ceases to fall, while the pencil
continues to register on the paper
attached.
