MAY WEATHER

HINDER OUTDOOR WORK BUT
CONDITIONS AS WHOLE
WE'RE VERY GOOD.

The condensed climatological sum-
mary for May is as follows:
While frequent rains somewhat
hindered outdoor work, more partic.
ularly in the southeastern counties,
the weather was on the whole favor
able for nearly all interests, in that
the rains furnished moisture which
was needed over most of the state
The rains as a rule fell gently, and
we're absorbed by the soil, the run-ofi
being comparatively light, and were
highly beneficiary to Vegetation and
in supplying irrigation reservoirs anG
the small streams and water-holes
with water. No severe storms were
reported, and no damage resulted
from frost. There was some local hail
Thunderstorms were not as frequent
as usual in May. The weather was
quite warm near the close of the
month, when temperatures of 90 de-
grees or higher occurred at a num-
Der of stations. Compared with the
records of % preceding years, there
have been II years with a higher
mean temperature, 1 with a higher
maximum and 9 with a lower mini
mum temperature. and 8 in which
the average precipitation for the
state was greater in May.
Temperature: The mean tempera-
ture for the state was 54.4 degrees,
or about / degree below the normal

lures recorder rengad from 1O2 de-
grees at Winner to SO degrees at
Davidson. The lowest temperatures
recorded ranged from 10 degrees at
Pollock and Stephen, to SO degrees
at Yankton.
Precipitation: The average preci-
pitation for the state was 3.4S inch.
es, or about O.94 inch above the nor
NAL for the month. The local month
ly amounts ranged from 6.51 inches
at Tyndall, Bonhomme county, to
1876 inches at Orman, Butte county.
There vas a little snowfall in the
Black Hills district.
Sunshine: There was considerably
less than the normal sunshine, with
an average of 9 clear, 10 partly
cloudy and ~ cloudy days, and an

WOOL SEASON OPENS
WITH PRICES w

Belle Fourche, S. D.-The wool
season is actively on again and from
present indications theres will be
more wool sheared than was at first
estimated. So far. prices have not
been high, the first clip, that OF
Potter and Wahlfeldt, which was
sold to a Rapid City man, was 10000
pounds, which brought IA cents,
while last years first price was 16
cents. 1t is thought that as this is
early in the season, the sale was
not a good indication and that the
prices will be stronger a little later.

There were those people in his dis
