Nebraska Has the Dryest
Year But One In 45 Years
If Nebraska goet "dry" - this year
it will be in keeping with the weather.
For this year bids fair to be the
dryest, with one exception, ever re
corded by the weather bureau.
ye have had only 15.34 inches of
rain since March 1, which is 11.87
inches lest than the average for that
period.
The dryest year recorded here
since the well-known weather bu
reau was established in 1871 was 1910,
V when we had but 15.49 inches in the
whole twelve months.
Another dry one was 1894, the year
of hot winds, when .the' rainfall was
only 17.82 inches. In 1911 is was only
18.46 and in 1887 we had only 19.92
inches of rain.
; The average annual rainfall dur
ing the forty-five years, during which
records have been kept here, was
29.72 inches.
The wettest year in that time was
1883, when we had a rainfall of 46.92
inches, or more than three times as
much as we had during the dryest
year of 1910. . .
i The next wettest year was 1884,
with 47.68 inches of rain. In 1881 we
had 45.74 inches and in 1875 the rain
fall was 42.89 inches. .
- October this year, in temperature,
has been about normal, being just 11
degrees less than the average, or
about one-third of a degree a day.
A Splendid Cough Medicine.
"I have used Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy a number of times during the
past two or three years for colds,
coughs and hoarseness, and am
pleased to say it has always given me
prompt relief. I consider Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy a splendid medi
cine and have recommended it to
many of my friends, who have used
it and likewise praise it highly," writes
Mrs. W. F. Frantz, Colden. NVY.
