"Saruh received me in her rooms
and I told her I thought it was as
little as she could do to send me to
flohool for a year or two. I was in
the show then. I told her I had not
had a chance and that I nt least
wanted a business course. The way
Sarah snapped me off niado me mad
and I told her in words, perhaps too
harsh, that I hoped I would never
lay eyes upon her again. We part
ed in anger and have never hnd a
conversation since that day. I have
seen her several times since, but we
were both too stubborn to give in
and we have been strangers since
that tlmo. Another thing that turn
ed me against Sarah I asked her
about father and she seemed afraid
that I was going to hunt him up and
report how she had treated me. She
refused to give any information
about the family. A. few years ago
Sarah sent one of her company here
to mako overtures, but I told him
that if anything was done, Sarah
would have to make her own over
tures." .

.There is much concern among the
agriculturalists of the valley and
county, whose lands are unirrigated
about the dearth of rain so far in this
section, especially during March and
February, which is far below nor-,
mal. Only 10.99 Inches of rain has
fallen so far Btnce last September,
and it is feit by many that unless
there is quite a rain fail during the
remainder of this month and in April,
May and June the crops on the unir
rigated lands will bo poor.
But while there Is apprehension
there is some precedent that there
may be such a rainfall, as since 1SSS,
when the official taking of records
was begun by the weather bureau
here, these records show that there
has been a copious rainfall during
April, May and June once every eight
or nine years, and this record Is
about due to be repeated.
In the rainy year of 1912-1913
there occurred the last heavy fall dur
ing these three months. In May of
1891 a lot of rain fell.
The total rainfall for the past five
complete 5'ears is as follows:
1922, 17.01; 1921, 16.21; 1920,
16.33; 1919, 14.33, 1918, 15.68.
As compared with light moisture
so far this year of only 10.99 inches
here and 11 inches at the Southern
Oregon Experiment station at Tal
ent, the following March rain fail
during the past five years Is interest
ing: 1922, 1.84 Inches, 1921, 1.06
inches, 1920, 1.44 inches; 1919, 1.78 j
inches; 1918, 1.69 Inches.
The February rainfall for the past
five years is as follows: 1922, 2.33;
1921, 3:31; 1920, .22 of an inch;
1918. 3:49; 1918,2.64.
The monthly rainfall so far this
rain weather year ts shown, by the
records to be as follows;
September, .50 of an inch; Octo
ber, 1.48; November, 1.35; Decem
ber, 5,36; January, 1.61; February,
