SOME WEATHER
RECORDS MADE
This January Has Least Precfpita-
ton Of Any for Which Data
Arc Available.

January has a weather record
that is unique in several respects.
The outstanding feature. of course,
is the spring-hke conditions that
have prevailed for the last three
weeks. bringing the first robin.
sprouting buds, roller skates and
marbles.
From a statistical standpoint the
low precipitation is the most i'm
portant item. On only two days has
there been any at ALL on the first
and the 22d, there being only q
trace on the latter date. Snow fell
heavily on the last day Of the old
year and OF inches of water in the
form of snow descended after mid
night. and that is the total for this
month. according to the records in
the office Of J. NJ. Sherier, local
meterologist. No other January
has shown so little precipitation
that of 1914, with Is. being the
nearest approach.
The first nine days of the month
were below normal in temperature,
bringing the average for the period
down to 2S3, which is about seven
degrees above normal In 1914 the
average was 306, but in that year
the coolest January day saw a min
imum Of , above. while this year
the thermometer went to 10 below
That was on the 4th. The Sd was
the coolest day of the month and of
the winter, with a mean of 10 be
low, and a range from below to
3 below.
Temperature variation has been
remarkably small since the 9th.
Only one day since has it been as
low as Is above and the minimum
daily has ranged from that up to
above the freezing point. with a
maximum running as high as sc,

COUNTY NURSE
BILL BEFORE THE LEGISLATURE
BY THE RED CROSS.

The state chairman of the Red
Cross, Mrs. e. p. Wanzer, of Ar
mour, has prepared a bill looking to
the preservation CT the public health.
This bill provides for the employ
ment of a trained nurse or nurses, at
the expense of the county, whenever
the county board of health shall so
specify.
The second section of the bill pro-
vides hat 25 resident freeholders
who r electors in any county may
petition the board of county commits
sioners to secure a nurse OF nurses,
in case there is no county board of
health OF such board fails to act.
The county commissioners are en-
powered to employ such a nurse, il
the situation calls for it and n is
not demanded by either of the other
two methods.
The bill further provides that the
nurse may be required to make exam
nations Of eyes, ears and threats OF
pupils in the public schools; to look
after and report symptoms Of con-
tagious diseases and to visit sick per-
sons wherever found.
The county commissioners are en-
powered by the terms of this bill to
provided a temporary or permanent
hospital for contagious disease.
Citizens are discussing the bill in
terestedly, and it seems to be the
| opinion of many that the employ
ment OF a nurse should be compul.
sorry instead of optional. and that
more definite cooperation with the
I schools should be specified.

FIRE ALARM
A SMALL BLAZE EXTNGUISHED
IN THE MADISON HOSPITAL.

A few minutes after the city COM
mission adjourned it's meeting last
evening the fire department was call
ed to the Madison hospital to extin-
guish a small fire that had just start
ed on the south roof slope. A Chin
ney, centrally located, began burning
out, depositing enough ignited SCOT
to catch in the shingles. A few mo-
ments of quick work subdued the
flame and there was no need for us
ing hose. The patients in the hos
pital were kept composed, thus OBJ
Waiting any possible panic among
them. 1t was stated that an incipi-
emit blaze broke out in almost the
same identical spot a year ago. The
hose carts got to the scene OF the fire
in short order, but a few pitchers of
water was all that was needed TO put
it out.
