No Added Rain Seen
From Cloud Seeding
By OSC Scientists
Science Is still hopeful that it
can put reality into man's long
nurtured dream to do something
about the weather. But Oregon
State college metorologists say
much research is needed before
such efforts as cloud seeding will
give controlled weatner cnanges.
The OSC researchers have just
completed a four-year study of
commercial cloud seeding in Ore
gon's dryland wheat area of Sher
man, Gilliam, and Morrow coun
ties. Their conclusion: no defi
nite increases in rainfall due to
seeding.

team of researchers armed them
selves with 20-year weather re
cords lor the area prior to ihw
before starting their intensive
four-year observation.
Average rainfall from 1930 to
1950 had been 10.5 inches during
the 10 months, September through
June, when cloud seeding is prac
ticed in the Tn-county area.
Yearly variations were wide, how
ever, during the 10-month periods:
5.8 inches in 1938 compared to
16.6 inches in 1947.
Reports from regional weather
stations, along with actual rain
fall measurements in nearby un
seeded areas, gave a computed
average natural raintaii or siignt
ly under 11 inches for the lour
test years.
The scientists measured 11
items used to compute naturaj
rainfall, allowed statistical mar
gin of error, and figured 12.60
inches of rain must fall before it
could be credited to anything but
chance. Actually, only 11.58
inches fell during the seeding
season one inch under the total
needed to credit it to anything
but nature.
It is auite probable, meteoro
logists say, that .weather condi
tions are rare when man can
make clouds release rain or with
hold hail. But thev believe the
Tri-county study has provided a
good tool for measuring present
cloud seeding methods.

THERE'S SOMETHINGS SPECIAL
ABOUT THIS
QUESTION: Some friends
who live just outside the
limits of a small city in an
other state had a fire and
called the city fire depart
ment. The fire was put out
but they got a good sized
bill from the fire depart
ment and their insurance
company wouldn't pay it
though they paid for the
fire damage. Is this custo
mary? ANSWER: Yes, it is usual
for a city fire department to
charge for trips outside
their city area and payment
for that charge is not pro
vided in the standard Fire
Insurance policy. However
for a very small additional
premium, payment of those
charges can be added to the
fire coverage.
If you'll address youi own
Insurance questions to this
office, we'll try to give you
the correct answers and
there will be n0 charge or
obligation of any kind.
