Figures That Cau Not he Questioned.
Alliance (Ne.br.) I'ulse.
Many jieople m the east believe west
ern Nebraska to be a dry country, he
cause the annual rainfall is less than
thirty inches. They do not consider
tliat nearly one-hall of the recorded
"lainfall" of the northern states east of
the Mississippi is snow, and the rain
there falls after the growing season is
over. The precipitation of the Pan
Handle is nearly all rain, and the greater
part of it occurs during the growing
season.
Many eastern people will be slow to
believe that during the months of April.
May and June (the principal growin
months) there is as much rainfall in
western Nebraska as in many of the
states east of the Missouri river. The
government (signal service reports furn
ish some conclusive evidence on that
point.
We give below a table compiled from
the monthly weather reviews of the
general weather service of the United
States for the months of April, May and
June, IBM. The table shows the rain
fall, In inches and hundredths, at Alli
ance, and at stations selected at random
from the leading agricultural states east
of the Missouri and north of the Ohio
rivers. The figures can be easily verified
by comparson with the original govern
merit reports.

Talk about crop failures, there has
never been a crop failure oft the table
lands of Sioux county. Whenever a
piece of ground of a size worthy of the
name of field has been properly put in
and cared for it has yielded a crop, ex
cept in a few instances where hail struck
it, and a locality which'' will yield a crop
in such years as 1890 is about as sure a
crop country as one can find.
a MBit Tuesday afternoon Christ
Christensen, who is section foreman near
Orin Junction, Wyo., started out to
work. He hud his hand-car loaded with
ties and as he warf goifrg through a cut

while coming from his farm to

It will be seen from the table that
out of the thirteen stations in nine of the
leading states of the Mississippi valley
only two got more rain during the grow
ing months than did Alliance. Many
got much less and one point, Fond du
Lac, received less than one-half as mm I)
rainfall as did Box Butte county. These
statistics from a source that cannot be
questioned should convince the most
skeptical that Box Butte county is any
tiling but a dry country.
