WARNOT TO BLAME
Has Nothing to Do With Ex-
cessive Rainfall.
Rut Nine Drier Years in Rec
ord of %.

There is a growing belief among
many Topekans that the war IN Eur
ope is responsible for the excess OF
moisture that has sent streams ana
rivers in this state on the rampage at
times in the last two months, but &C
cording to s. D. (Sunny) Flora, the
local weather man, the war has about
as much to do with it as has the color
of the state auto tags
AS a matter of fact Flora has fig
ures to prove that since the I1rSt OF
March when the war took on new
lease of life there has been deficien-
cy in rainfall taking the country as
whole. The precipitation has been be-
low normal along the Atlantic coast,
the Gulf states, the ONO valley, the
Lake region, and the Pacific coast. In
the upper Mississippi valley the rain
fall has been practically normal, while
in the Missouri valley and the Rocky
Mountain region there has been an ex-
cess of moisture.
Even before gunpowder was in
use said Flora today, there was a
belief that the shooting, general tu-
multi, sweat and agony of battle
caused disturbances of the elements
Now as matter of fact no great
battles are fought in arid countries
A general begins his battles when pos
sible when the weather is fine. In the
territories where battles are fought
rain falls on an average of one out of
three days, so before a battle ends a
rain is usually due"
The rainfall at Topeka Wednesday
night brought the total for 1915 up
to 30.62 inches. This is go of an
inch more water than fell in the en-
tire twelve months of 1914. Nine
years out of the last twenty ght have
had less moisture. If there is just
the normal amount of rain between
now and the first of next year the
o | precipitation for 1915 will
amount to 44.92 inches, and this would
make it the second wettest year on
record. In 1909 the total rainfall was
1896 inches

January, 1.23 inches; February, PAS;
