THE RMN DOCTORS,
The (uestion of whether rain
ran be produced by artificial means
is one of the problems of nature
that is still in doubt. It has been
the day dream of enthusiasts for
years, and has attracted so much
attention that actual experiments
have been made, at no Email cost
to the government, and probably
with a very small amount of satis
faction so far at least. Prof. New
comb in the North American
Review says I am not going to
maintain that we can never make
it rain. But I lo maintain two
propositions. If we are ever going
to make it rain, or produce any
other result hitherto unattainable,
we must employ adequate means.
And if any proposed means or
agency is alieady familiar to
lf.mh.n.lhthpritia..lp.,ii.i..
Let us grant that out of a thou
sand seemingly visionary proj'Ctj
one if really sound. Must we try
the entire thousand to lind the
one? By no means. The chances
are that nine hundred of them
will involve no agency that is not
already fully understood, and may,
therefore, be set aside without
even being tried. To this class
belongs the project of producing
rain by sound. As I write, the
daily journals are announcing the
brilliant success of experiments in
this direction ; yet I unhesitating
ly maintain that sound cannot
make rain, and propose to adduce
all necessary proof of my thesis.
The nature of sound is fully under
stood, and so are the conditions
under which the aqueous vapor
in the atmosphere may be con
densed. Let us see how the
case !
stands. A room ot average size,
at ordinary temperature and under
usual condition, contains about a
luart of water in the form of in
visible vapor. The whole atmos
phere is impregnated with vapor
in about the same proportion. We
must, however, distinguish be
tween this invisible vapor and the
clouds or other visible ma3ees to
which the same term is often ap
plied. Clouds are not formed of
true vapor, but consist of impal
pable particles of liquid water
lioating or suspended in the air.
But we all know that clouds da not
always fall as rain. In order that
rain may fall the impalpable
particles of water which form the
cloud must collect into sensible
drops large enough to fall to the
earth. Two steps are necessary to
the formation of rain ; the trans
parent aqueous vapor in tne air
must be condensed into clouds,
and the material of the clouds must
agglomerate into raindrops. No
physical fact is better established
than that, under the conditions
which pie vail in the atmosphere,
the atpieoui vapor of the air cannot
be condensed into clouds
except by cooling: It is true that
in our laboratories it can lie con
densed by compression. But, for
reasons which 1 need not explain,
condensation by compression can
not take place in the air. The
oolinr which results in tlie forma
tion of clouds and rain my come in
two ways. Rains which last for
several hours or days are general
ly produced by' the intermixture of
currents of air of different temper
atnres. A current ol cold air
meeting a current of warm, moist
air in its course may condense a
considerable portion of the
moisture into clouds and rain, and
this condensation win go on as
long as the currents continue to
meet. In a hot spring day a mass
of air which has been warmed by
the sun, and moistened by evapor
ation near the surface of the
earth, may rise up and cool by ex
pansion to near the freezing-point.
The resulting condensation of the
moisture may then produce a
shower or thunder-squall.
That sound as a physical factor
is quite insignificant would be
evident were it not lor oor laiia
ciou way of measuring it. The
human ear is an instrument of
wonderful delicacy, and when its
tympanum is agitated by a sound
we call it a "concussion," wber,
in fact, all that Lakes place is a
sudden motion back and forth of a
tenth, a hundredth, or a thou
sandth of an inch, accompanied
by a slight momentary condensa
tion. After these motions are
completed the air is exactly in the
same condition as it was before ; it
is neither Hotter nor colder; to
current has been produced, no
moisture added. It must, how
ever, be adued tbat tne laws under
which the impalpable particles of
water in clouds agglomerate into
drops of rain are not yet understood,
and tbat opinions differ on this
subject. Experiments to decide
the question are needed, and it is
to be Loped that the weather
bureau will undertake them. For
anything we know to the contrary,
the agglomeration may be facili
tated by smoke in the air. If it
be really true that rains have been
produced by great battles, we may
say with confidence that the? were
produced by the smoke from the
burning powder rising into the
clouds and forming nuclei for the
agglomeratio n into drops, and not
ly the mere explosion.
The spread of the loathsome
disease of leprosy has been noted
quite often by the newspapers, and
preventative measures suggested.
One of the English newspapers in
Yokohama calls attention to the
spread of leprosy in Japan, and
points out that this Oriental
country, winch lias adopted so
many western reforms, will suffer
the fate of Norway if it neglects
much longer to segregate its
Iepe:s. It seems that the custom
in Japan ia to permit lepers in all
stages of the loathsome disease to
cit alms by the roadside.
No
urmiBiou una yet uecu uiauiur
placing the alllicted in an asylum
or for checking the spread of the
disease. Norway permitted
leprosy to go unchecked till 1853,
but since then out of a revenue of
oily $5,000,000 she has spent
yearly $100,000 in fighting the dis
ease. In Japan the penalty of
neg'ect will be heavier, as the
customs of the country favor the
spread of the disease, and the
habits of the people are opposed to
anything like the segregation of
the afflicted.
The opening of the Leland
Stai.fordjrUnivereity at Palo Alto,
California, has been accomplished
with great success, and the school
will be one of the foremost educa
tional institutions of the world.
It makes an epoch in the endow-
ment of schools by single individ
uals, as this one is accomplished
during the life time of the donor.
It will be the only enduring monu
ment to the Stanford name.
