ical Society of Lima. Peru. He main
tains that German influence Is not Ger

ence in Latin America.

END OF THE RAINY SPELL
Forecaster Beals Predicts Fair
Weather for Today.
After being compelled to wear rubbers,
rainy-day skirts and extra flannels during
the past week on account of the wet spell,
the citizens of Portland are to be given a
different brand commencing today, ac
cording to District Forecaster Beala, who
announces that there will be a change in
climatic conditions in Portland and vicin
ity today and that the people may expect
some real nice, made-to-order weather for
a day or two.
Yesterday the barometer indicated a
change, and before nightfall it became ap
parent that the rain would cease for a
while and the forecaster eald that today
will be clear and fine, and also that the
aame conditions are likely to prevail Sun
day. This will be welcome news to the hop
growera, for unless their crops have been
damaged already the coming of warm and
sunshiny weather will cause the mold
now making its appearance to vanish,
which will prove welcome to both grower
and picker alike.
The rainfall in Portland since Septem
ber 1 has been 1.81 inches, of which 1.36
Inches has fallen in the last three days.
From E P. M. Thursday to the same hour
yesterday 0.72 Inches of rain f?ll in this
city.
