——----------------- — Coming lhis Way. • I i iwo or threi uh lies of rain sometimes falls in a day, and that in our List rainy -pe 11 nearly five inches fell in forty-eight hours; but these figures really convey very little in formation to our minds, and give us no idea at all of the prodigality of nature. An acre contains 6,272,640 square inches of surface. and an inch of rain means, therefore, the same num ber of cubic inches of water. A gallon contains 277.27 cubic inches of water, and an inch of rainfall means 22,622 gallons to the acre, and. as .1 gallon of water weighs ten pounds, the rainfall 011 an acre is 22<>,220 pounds. ('minting 2,000 pounds to the ton, an inch of rain means over 113 tons per acre. An acre is about half a St. Louis block, so that a rainfall of an inch means a downpour <»f about 226 tons of water on every city block. Multiply this by five, the number of inches of rainfall during the wet spell in the last week in May, and no one can wonder that tin- gutters were insuffi cient to carry olf the water. The occasional overflow of a sewer in the lower part of town is regarded as a very remarkable thing, but the won dcr really is that there is not an overflow every time it rains.—St. I.ottis < '.lobe-Democrat.
