FACTS REQUIRED
ON RAIN VOLUME
WASHINGTON (UP) Intanalty of
rainfall during a alngla storm vartaa
greatly from locality to locality
within the atorm area, It ha been
learned from an Intensive atudy of
"life histories" of ilngle ralnatorm.
O. 8. Thornthwalte, head of cli
matic reaearch actlvltl of the toll
conservation service of the depart
ment of agriculture, said the atudlea
hare developed facta which open an
entirely new approach to the prob
1 lem of upstream reduction and con
'"trol of flood watera.
Rainfall measurementa more de
tailed than ever undertaken before
are being conducbed in western
Oklahoma with the co-operation of
the weather bureau. Two hundred
farmers on relief In Blaine. King
fisher and Logan counties. OUa., re
ceived elementary training aa weath
er observers. Living three mllea Apart,
these farmers were supplied with rain
gauges and other weather instru
ments to be lead almultaneoualy on
the hour and every 18 minutes dur
ing rains.
These measurementa revealed the
spottiness of rainfall and the chang
ing centers of greatest Intensity dur
ing a single atorm. The variation
from spot to spot Is considerably
greater than had heretofore been
known.
. 'Thla meana that previous rainfall
records baaed on less frequent obser
vations of widely spaced gauges. pro
Tide an Inaccurate record of the
actual amount of water felling on
the land," Dr. Thornthwalte explain
ed. "It therefore ha been impossible
. to gauge possible flood peaks with
V"any degree of accuracy."
The recordings also have disclosed
that wind velocities are extremely
variable from place to place within
the area atudled, he added. Varia
tions take the form of channel of
force which parallel the wind direction.

Youthful appstites will accapt almost any kind of cook
ery buf older tastet ar more discriminating. And ,
when is any housewife more anxious to have her cooking
appear at its best than on Thanksgiving and Christmas
festival days! So that's the very time to forestall all
doubts, hesitations, expensive experiments and cooking
failures, and discouragements by installing a can't-fail
stove. And that means an electric stove, a modern elec
tric stove, which has taken all the hazard out of cooking,
and puts the youngest bride on the same plane with the
gray-haired cooked-for-a-lifetime mother-in-law. Also
these new electric stoves are amazingly economical to
operate, and keep the kitchen comfortable in all seasons.
