WATER
PAIL EMPTIED
Beginning With May 9Th and Ending
June 9Th, Rainfall TotaIIed 11.06
Inches at Denison.
MANY WATCH 1.-THE ECLIPSE
Clear Skies and Atmosphere Were a
Great Aid in Getting Good View
Of Moon Passing the Sun

The following interesting report was
furnished by Prof G. w. Stump, of
the commercial department of the Den
ison high school, who has charge of
the local government weather bureau:
total of 11O6 inches of rain fell.
Earlier in the spring it was remark
ed with reference to the weather that
we had experienced an unusually
pleasant March. Then April was out
of the ordinary because of so many
clear days and the almost entire lack
of rain during that month. Now May
has passed and we need not look far
off to find the outstanding weather
feature of that month.
There were thirteen stormy days in
May and aside from a day of distinct
tornadoes and other dayH Of high
winds there was total rainfall Of
S.23 inches. There was no rain i'll
that month until the 9Th, when just a
trace fell and from then on it be-
came increasingly stormy until dur
ing the last fifteen days of the month
only four were without rainfall in
some degree.
The storms ceased on the 5th of
June, making just thirty days of bad
weather. Nature, however, apparently
desired to make the most of the thirty
days and on the 5th emptied the
heavenly water pail and poured upon
us 2.14 inches OF rain within few
hours. Beginning with the 9th Of May
and ending with the same day in June
a total of HOG inches of rail fell.
The eclipse OF the sun was interest
ing and no doubt was watched by sew
eral hundred Crawford county people.
Clear skies and a clear atmosphere
were a great aid in getting good
view of the passing of the moon across
the face of the sun. The peculiar dusk
was noticeable, and the crescent shap-
ed shadows cast by the leaves of the
ing, but those people who noticed their
thermometers were able to see just
what a direct effect the sun has upon
the temperature of the air.
At the time the eclipse began the
thermometer stood at about so de-
grees and while the sun darkened the
mercury dropped in direct proportion
as the suns rays were cut Off. When
the eclipse was greatest the tempera-
ture had dropped nearly twenty de-
grees, or a degree every two minutes.
Then as the sun became brighter it
rose again to within two degrees OF
where it had stood before the eclipse
began, the other two degrees being
accounted for by the approaching eve
ming and the cooling of the atmosphere
by the shadow which lasted about
eighty minutes altogether. s.

I am frequently asked why we do
not ship other grain to Europe as well
as wheat, and | thought that perhaps

the question and be of interest. Dur

251 ,114 pounds of corn meal.
