usual warm weather are accountable
for the extraordinary conditions. Sep
TENDER goes on record as having the
least rainfall for several years. The
most recent measurement at Moose
head lake showed that the water
gauge registered two feet with eight
gates open and with the water from
one to one and a half feet below the
dam at Watervillle, while at the same
time In 1913 the gauge registered 2h
feet with no gates open, and two feet
The total rainfall for the month of
September was .95 inches. In the same
month last year there were 3.74. and
the average for the past seven years
has been $50 inches, placing this year
far below normal. Previous to Satur-
day the amount or rainfall for the
present month has been .21 inches,
which shows up poorly when compar-
ed with 2.55 inches for the same period
last year. The rain of the last two
days has greatly helped matters and
improved the conditions tina were al
most getting alarming.
