that kept him out of the Minneapolis

position, was credited in the box
score with a three bagger, two

1921 A FAIRLY GOOD YEAR IS RAIN CHART FORECAST

rainfall in Montana is by cycles. He
also is not yet satisfied that further
records will not show that Montana S
weather does change in cycles.
One of the big results Of the chart
is that it shows the general tendency
of the weather conditions for the
next year, whether the precipitation
is on the ascendancy or is declining.
The chart shows the precipitation
charts in five sections of the state,
south eastern,s south central, western,
north central and north eastern.
eff such cycle could be deter1nin-
ed it would be of inestimable value,
especially to the dry land farmers
and indirectly to every other indus
try" Mr.. Ellis said, and added:

Helena, April 12.-After months
of effort, George Henry Ellis, state
photographer, has completed in his
spare time, compilation of chart
showing the rainfall in each section
of Montana since weather records
were first taken. The object of the
work was to show if possible that
Montana's years of light and heavy
precipitation came and went in cycles
of a certain number of years.
Mr. Ellis said that although the
chart shows rainfall by months since
1866 he cannot prove as yet that

Gas finally plated on the chart,
the curves show that 1919 was very
dry year in all sections of Montana.
Going back from there the curves
slope upward more or less regularly
to the wet years of 1913 to 1916.
From the peak years the curves
slope downward to minimum in
1910. AS to the immediate future the
tendency is upward from the dry
year of 1919, to the big wet year
which should be due about 1922 or
1923. If the cycle holds good, 1921
should be fairly good year"

PRESIDENT READS
HIS FIRST MESSAGE
FOLLOWS PREDECESSORS PRE-
CEDENT-SPECIAL SES-
SION OPENS

Washington, April president
Harding's declaration in his first mes
sage to congress Tuesday that the
United States would have no part in
the present League of Nations was
received with great demonstration.
Republican members of the senate
and house who, with members of the
cabinet crowded the house chamber
to hear the president deliver his mes
sage in person applauded vigorously.
The demonstration quickly grew into
cheering, the Republican members
standing. The galleries joined in the
demonstration and it was some min
utes before quiet was restored.
The Democratic members, many
with stolid faces and folded arms did
not join in the demonstration. Sena-
tor Hitchcock of Nebraska, who led
the long fight in the senate in favor
of the league smiled broadly how
ever.
Contains $500 Words
The presidents address contained
about $500 words and 55 minutes
were required for its reading. His
concluding statement regarding peace
and the league was delivered slowly
with solemn emphasis. The audience
rose and cheered as the president fin
ished.
The president began his address
promptly at 1 o'clock. The distin-
guished company gathered in the
chamber, rose and applauded when he
entered the chamber to follow a GUS
tom inaugurated by Washington, abb
andoned by Jefferson and revived by
Wilson. The executive shook hands
with the vice president and speaker,
bowed and smiled to his audience,
and Immediately launched into the
reading of his message.
Taxation Policy Applauded
First applause was given his state
ments regarding taxation and there
after the reading was puncuated by
frequent outbursts.
Mrs Harding, Mrs. Coolidge and
other members of the families of the
president and vice president occupied
the executive galleries. As she took
her seat, Mrs. Harding was recog-
nized and applauded. She responded
by rising and bowling.
Soon after President Harding re-
turned to the White House Jules J.
] Jesserand, French ambassador called
Dt the executive Office in person and
aShed for a copy of thu presidents
address, which was supplied to him.
President Harding's principal rec
to congress in his first
address delivered Tuesday included
the following:
Principal Recommendations
