P
OF
M
, Yesterday was tbe coldest 22nd of
July since 1901 when vne mercury
fell to a point below the 64 degree
mark yesterday. Weather Observer
W. A.' Woratell finds that fact true
after diligent search through the
weather records kept by miaself and
furthermore bag looked up additioual
data regarding the readings made
.this forenoon.
Today Cold, Too.
This morning, or rather at nine
o'clock, the observer found tbe mer
cury down to 41, but this unusual rec
ord wns reached last July tiiivi- !.
the month. On one or two occasions
early IhM July the mercury dropped
to 36 and 37 but not in many years
bRS there been such an unusual drop
late in the month as exited yester
day and today.
Weather Clearing 1 Belief.
Farmers and onhnrdlsts are pin
ning their hope on the prediction
that the weather Is clcnrl'ig and t,at
rains will soon be displaced by warm
er weather and sunshine. Sunshine,
however. Is not the most needed fa
tur for orehnrdlsts, as the fun's rays
might crack the cherries thnt were
water soaked during the Inst raln
storrrs. On the other hand owners o
the several hundreds of acre "down"
wait a drying sun.
Vincent Axtor to Join Mother.
New Tork. July 23. Vincent Astor,
fnn of the late John Jacob Astor, was
among the r""sener on the steamer
Mauretanla which nailed from this
port today. He Is on his way to Eng
Ind, wbtrt ha will Join bis mother,
-- v Willing Astor, and her
daughter Muriel for the rest of the
nrnmer. Too whole party expects to
return to the United States early In
tbe fa"-
, Virginian creepers will be planted
about the South and North side school
buildings tomorrow night by the civic
committee of which Mrs. Fred ' G.
Sthllke is chairman, and the follow
ing are members: Sirs. H. T. Love,
Mrs. C. Polack, Mrs. Pickens, Mrs. M.
K. Hall, Mrs. A. .B. Cherry. Anyone
having good strong Virginia creeper
roots are asked to notify any of the
committee that as many as possible
may be secured for the planting hour.
This month is not a very desirable
time for roots but slips are not prac-1
tlcal at this time, hence the more sure
method.
The civics committee has noted a
big improvement In the matter of cut
ting weeds and publicity to the stat
utes makln gibe city and Individuals
liable to prosecution and flies, has
stirred property owners to action.
