World MAY Expect Dry

LONDON, Dec. 31,-The year
1925 will be the driest the uni
verse has experienced this CEN
tury, an official Of the British
Meteorological Department told
the Associated Press in explain
ing a new discovery which de-
partmental experts have made
and which, it is declared, enables
them to pick out the wet and dry
years to come.
The droughty year of 1921
appears to have been the turning
point, for now the department
experts have figured out that for
the next pemod of increased
solar activity the5 years will be
in cycles Of three, two wet years
and one dry one. The year 1922
is reckoned as the last year on
the late period, therefore the
years 1923 and 1924 have been
Che wet ones and 1925, if any
faith can be placed III the con-
stancy of the solar proininences
of the sun, should be il dry one
in England and d drough%y one
