Hon. .1. H. Sngc , director of llio Iowa
weather bureau , contrltiutos to tlto Mlillniul
Monthly n review of "Unln-MaUliiK Down to
Date. " The great activity ot nlloncil rnln-
innUers , Etipcrliuluced by tlio July drouth
In tlio west , nlvcs n timely value to llio ob
servations of one iUAllllcd | to speak on tlie
subject. Mr. Sage writes :
Can we make It rain ? Is the modern coun
terpart ut tlio question propounded by the
writer of one offthe oldest books of Hebrew
literature "Hath tlio rain a father ? " In all
the ages there have been cl.ilmantH to | u-
lernlty of the rainfall , but dcsplto their ef
forts to prove tlio relationship there has
remained a cloud upon their title. There
are serious dllllcultles In llio way ot estab
lishing the claim , tor the rains descended
before these pluvious professors be an the
practice of their arts , which fact Rivet basis
for nl least a suspicion that Itould have
rained just the saint ) If they had never been
born.
The ancient rain-fakirs performed Incan
tations , and Impressed the credulous by
claiming to ha\o sulllclcnt Induenco with
their deities to produce shouers at will.
The latter-day pluvlocrnla profess to have
penetrated the secret of nature's proct's
of distillation , whereby they are able at will
to set In operation the forces that c.ittbe
the downpour , lly shrewdly tlmliiK their
work , giving live or six days' range to the
"at wld , " they have to some extent captl-
valed llio popular mind , but those who have
thoughtfully studied nature's methods , ami
mastered oven the rudiments ot meteorolo
gical science , are most skeptical concerning
all such claims.
NATUUB HAS NOT uKTIUni ) .
So It may bo qulto positively asserted
that doun to date there arc no visible In
dications that nature Is about to retire from
the rain-making business , or that any part
of the Job Is to be sublet by contract. Na
ture has ample forces employed In that
kind of work , and none ot them nro known
lo I'o out on a btrlke. The sun runs the
pumping machinery , working on full time ,
lifting In Its diurnal course millions of tons
of water , converting It Into vapor and send
ing It Inland upon the wings of tlio winds.
The boreal blasts , commingling with Ihb
vapor-laden winds from seaward , form Ihe
rain-clouds , those "wandering cisterns of the
air , " which are swept Into Ihe vortex of the
cyclone , carried across the continent and
made to drop their watery contents upon
the thirsty earth.
The gigantic forces of nature employed In
the production of even a moderate shower
arc Inllnltcly above the grasp and even be
yond the comprehension of man. Those
who have given life-long study to the move
ments of the elements and the laws govern
ing their action have barely learned the al
phabet of the subject , and the very terms
employed In Its discussion but serve to Il
lustrate tlio Illimitable expanse ot the un
known. They have learned enough , how
ever , to know thai those vast forces can only
be wielded by Iho power of Iho Omnipotent.
As nn Illustration of what Is termed the
thermo-dynamlcs of the atmosphere , as re
lated to the production of violent storms ,
a noted French scientist , H. Mohn , made a
careful c&tlmale ot the energy expended In
the passage of a notable West Indies cy
clone , which lasted three days and nights ,
and the conclusion reached -was that the
force developed was fully equalled to 473-
000,000 horse-power , or at least fifteen times
the power that Is produced In Iho same
space of time by all the windmills , turbines ,
steam engines , and all the men nnd animals
on the surface of the globe. "Whence comes
this colossal force ? " hs asks , and the an
swer Is : "From the latent heat of vapor
which rises In the center ot the hurricane
and Is there condensed. "
AREA OF 'AERIAL ' DISTU1U1ANCE.
Applying this method of compulation to
mid-continent cyclonic movements with
which the people of this region are famlilar ,
some most astounding results will be
reached. Suppose , for Illustration , a storm
Is developed ot sufllclent extent and force
to yield to the state of Iowa an average of
ono inch of rainfall. To produce this , the
area covered by the "low" In Its movement
across the valley must be from Ihreo lo
five times the extent of the area of pre
cipitation , for It should bo known that to
obtain oven n moderate amount of inols-
lure you must milk a wldo expanse of sky.
On Iho average the area of rainfall In thl *
portion of the continent does not exceed
onc-llfth of the terrllory covered by Ihe cy
clone. All parts of the area feel the effects
ot the passing storm , but only n. fraction
thereof receives benefit of the rainfall. Thorn
is a vast sweep In the circulation of winds
employed In the work of wringing out a
purely local shower. And the sum total of
energy employed In the production of rain
fall to the extent herein described would
bo more than equal lo the motive power
required to operate all the machinery of llio
woild for an equal length ot time. To fully
illustrate and demonstrate the dynamic
theory of storms would require much space
and some very Intricate mathematics.
It will bo seen from the foregoing that
when any man undertakes , by Ihe employ
ment of any known mechanical or chemi
cal forces , to produce rain at will , to cover
even n square mlle of surface , ho assumes
a very largo contract. And In view of the
Infinite resources of nature , and the vast
scope of operation of the forces engaged In
pumping the waters from the sea nnd pour
ing them out upon the land , the conclusion
must be reached that the man who assumes
the title of Nature's Assistant Rain-Maker
Is practicing upon the credulity ot the
public.
Rainfall Is the most variable element ot
cllmato. The variability Is not In the sum
total of precipitation the world over ; for the
sun's heat Is a constant , and the process
of evaporation Is going on continually , nnd
all the waters that rlso In vapors must pans
through the counter process of condensation.
Hut there Is great Inequality In the distri
bution of rainfall. The hyetal charts of the
world , graphically representing the annual
rainfall In shades , show very black and
very light belts and spots In nil portions of
the earth. Thcro are rainless regions In
close proximity to regions of perpetual
greenness. Some of the Islands of the ocean
present a strange contrast on ono side of n
mountain a rainless , barren desert , and on
the other side a very Eden of tropical lux
uriance , with copious nnd unfailing rains ,
This marked Inequality Is caused by the
topography of the countries where It la
observed , and no human agency can change
the course of the rain-tearing winds , or
equalize the deposit of moisture.
WHY HUMIDITY VAKICS.
In all mid-continent regions llicre Is

floods , and the eastern Mates were
drenched , while Ihe tttatps on n line from

There have been abundant > rrn mid portents
of rain nil throtiRh the KHM.Mbut the old
weather proverb that all slKi" of rain fall In
n dry time has be > n fully verified.
Some of the old bible writers were ahrcwil
observers of the weather. In KcclexlaRtln
II. 3 , \\c read : "If Ihu clouds bo full of
rain ihry empty themselves upon the e.uth "
And Job said : "They ( the clouds ) pour
down rnln according to the vapour thereof "
That's good sense nnd sound meteorological
science. When the clouds nro full of rnln
they empty themselves of moisture when
brought under the right conditions an to tem
perature ; that Is , when subjected to dynamic :
cooling. Hut nficr ihr-y have been wrung
dry they vanish Into thin air nnd dlrappenr.
When the watery vapor Is not In Ihe air no
process of pounding or squeezing will bring
down rain.
It Is not a matter of hypothesis but n
demonstrnt.iblc fact Hint In this droulhy
period Hi" percentage of relative humidity
of the air has been unusually low The
records of the United States weather bureau
station In I-s .Molncs prove Indubitably that
the drouth was In the nlr. the relative nnd
absolute humidity being so low nt nil hours
of the day and night that no moisture could

Duo credit must be given to nature , however ,
for making heroic efforts to that end. Them
wcro the usual reactionary periods , and the
elements passed through all the ihroes and
changes Incident to the month of our heaviest
rainfall , but the rains came not because the
atmouphere did not contain the vapor. Aa
Job says : "Tim clouds pour down rain ac
cording to the vapour thereof. " They did
that Ihls season , but they wcro rather shorten
on vapor.
The monopolists of Kansas , Colorado and
the easlern states robbed Iowa of Its Just
quota of moisture. Wo must make our ap
peal to congress. That would be ns cITectunl
a remedy ns the attempt to euro Iho defect
by dosing thu skies with chemical ga es
through a steve pipe hole In the top of a
freight car !
The arid atmosphere does not thirst for
gas , but cries continually. "Water , water ! "
Olve It an abundance of vapor , apply the
dynamic cooling process and It will water
the earth copiously. So , to create a fresh
supply of vapor , it would bo more rational
to atari Iho lea hollies boiling over a million
fires than lo administer a dose of gas.
Meantime , until man has attained sufllclont
power to grasp and wield the rnllnlto forces
of naturo. whereby ho can , at will , change
the mighty currents of ocean and atmos
phere , and thereby make a more equal ills-
Irllmllon of moisture , wo had better rever

The action of the I'ollco Relief association
