WATER DRAWN UP BY THE SUN Weather superstitions usually have a basis of fact. They frequently come true, but not for the reason that folks who repeat the superstition think. Take the case of the superstition of "the sun drawing up water.” When long rays of light and shadow shoot down from the clouds, superstition has it that the sun is drawing up water into the clouds, and that' soon after there will be rain. Such an appearance of sunshine is sometimes seen on warm cloudy days and it rains often enough afterwards to give the superstition a semblance of variety. What are the facts? Where the Rain Comes From The sun evaporates water all the time. Water is constantly being evaporated from every brook, spring, and even from drops of dew, but all the water of the land put together would not make more ■ than a fairly respectable sized! storm. The great sweeping clouds which we see come from the ocean. The moisture of the air is ■ taken from the water of the sea, 1 and evaporation from the land plays only a small part in rain making. Three quarters of the surface of the earth is covered by oceans. Fully half of these waters . lie within the torrid zone, where, the sun is always bright and hot. The sun draws moisture up into the clouds, it is true, but the rain which we see falling in America was taken up into the clouds along the coast of Venezuela, Brazil, Mexico and over the Atlantis) Ocean. It is. perhaps, the only good thing that gets into this country tax free. When we see rays of light and shadow streaming away from the sun we are looking at an atmosphere already charged with water vapor and about ready to condense rain. These light and dark streamers are the shadows of the clouds When the sun shines on clouds floating in wet air the clouds cast long shadows of darkness down into the deeper mists below. These mists will condense and make rain at the slightest chilling. A Scene of Beauty The appearance of the sun drawing up water is a favorite one with artists, and it is indeed a

It is interesting to note that if the streamers are all carried backward they will meet at a spot that ta the exact center of the sun. The effect of radiation from the dark cloud is entirely one of perspective, just like the rails of the railroad track seem to meet at a distance. WEATHER QUESTIONS Q— Kindly tell me what significance fogs hold for the various seasons of the year. What kind of weather is apt to follow a fog, and j when? —V. O. A.—A morning fog which lifts with the sun denotes a clear sky, but a mist that grows denser as the day advances foretells a rain from the west or couth. A worn out hurricane storm is a great fog producer in autumn and early winter. A spring fog drives away frost. Q. —You often speak of the Gulf | Stream of the Air, but can you tell us how the Gulf Stream flowing FLOWER GARDEN DESIGT4 AND TEMPERATURES FORECAST FOR FLOWER GARDENS Now is the season to plant a i beautiful flower garden. Nearly ■ everyone likes flowers and they are especially attractive if laid out in a pretty design. A great many ; people enjoyed our flower design for 1937, so Prof. Selby Maxwell has had his staff design a new one for 1938. He will be glad to send you this design, together with his i forecast of temperature conditions for flower gardens for the balance i of May and for June, free, with the compliments of this newspaper, i Address him in care of this newspaper, enclosing a 3c stamped selfaddressed envelope for your reply and a 3c stamp to cover the actual cost of production of the temperature forecast and flower ■ garden design.

A.—The Gulf Stream of the Air and its current In the water below lea tidal effect on the air. It has been flowing for many geological ages, much as it does now. As long as the gravity of the Sun and Moon pull on the Earth's fluid envelopes of air and water, this stream will flow. Q.— Will there be sufficient rain-1 fall in southwestern Minnesota to . produce a good corn crop this year? Will the temperature be above normal or below normal? — V. H.
