The above communication
needs but little explanation; it
plainly explains itself. and adj
mits the facts as charged by
The Record in it's issue of the
18th, respecting the conduct of
the committee.
Had we known that the COM
mittee should be notified of the
fact that a fair was to be held
this fall. in order to save them
from forgetting it, and that in
return for doing so we would be
rewarded by receiving all the
fair printing and all the infor-
nation respecting the meetings
of the committee and its actions,
we should have mentioned the
matter along about Christmas,
instead of waiting until only
four or five months before the
dates on which it is TO be held.
With regard to the notice and
"shrewdness" mentioned in
the reply, we suspect that the
postoffice mail sacks 1--WE have
been advised that the telephone
did a little talking, too) bad
something to do with the
"shrewdness" referred to.
AS to the Parowan represent
alive being notified of what the
committee was doing. we have
the word Of Mrs. Benson that
no information whatever was
given her with repsect to the
fair or the printing until she
asked a member of the commit
tee respecting it, and was ad-
vised that it had been given to
the other paper. We will leave
the matter of veracity between
Mrs. Benson and the ambiguous
writer of the committees reply,
to the judgment of the people
of Parowan.
AS to "due" support from
certain Sources" the writer of
the article should have been
ashamed to make such a state
ment in view of his own ad mis-
sions in the article. He admits
the committee may have been
unwise, but inferentiaIly blames
The Record for not securing the
printing, but he doesn't attempt
to excuse the committee for
failure to see that this paper
was supplied with data respect
ing the fair. Every week, and
lat times more frequently, we
receive more information from
the management of the San
Diego and San Francisco Expo
sitions, the Utah State Fair and
other attractions. than we re-
ceive white paper from the Iron
County Fair Committee.
1t is very evident that the con.
lscience of the members who are
responsible for the delinquencies
of the committee are not as
tranquil as they would have beer
had a proper and fair attitude
been maintained instead of hav
ing to resort to the embarrass
ing remedy of trying to excuse
their conduct.

WAS BAD MONTH
Weather Observer Gives Au-
gust a Black Eye.
Hottest, Driest, Sunshiniest
Month for 25 Years.

August, 1913 was by degrees the
warmest August that Kansas has ex-
perienced since statewide weather OBJ
servations were begun in 1887, and,
with the exception of July, 1901, was
warmer than any other month of any
name of which there is an authentic
record at any place in Kansas, ac-
fording to the detailed summary of the
months weather over the state which
will be issued by the local office of the
weather bureau Saturday. At many
places in the south-central portion of
the state it was even warmer than
July, 1901.
August was also the driest August
on record, taking the state as a whole,
and was the most sunshiny month that
Kansas has experienced in the past 21
years.
The average temperature for the
state was S4 degrees. which is seven
degrees above normal. Temperatures
of 100 degrees or higher occurred on
from IL to % days during the month
in all parts of the state and only a
few nights were cool enough to be COM
Portable in the eastern half of the
state. The highest temperature record
ed was 113 degrees at Clay Center and
Frankfort and the lowest was Al de-
greeS at Brakeman.
The average rainfall for the state was
o.47 of an inch. which is 2.77 inches
below normal. The average for the
eastern third of the state was O.55 inch;
the middle third 0.33 inch, and the
western third 0.54 inch. The heaviest
monthly total reported was ESQ inches
at Lawrence. Only few places any
where in the state reported more than
an inch of rain during the month and
over more than a third of the state
there was less than a quarter of an
inch.
