The so-called cyclones" Of the West
are "tornadoes," which are whirlIng
storms of great violence, but contract
ed in area. Tornadoes have been
known whose greatest width did not
exceed a feT reds, and those which
exceed several miles In width are very
unusual. The ordinary storm where
the wind attains a velocity of 40 to co
miles ON hour has nothing In common
with either cyclone or tornado. It
Is straight thrush Of air and does not
