Delightful Indian Summer
Adds Zest to Daily Tasks;
Origin of Name Uncertain
Br J. HUGH PRUETT
Astronomer. General Extension,
University of Oregon
"There I lingered all October
through
In that sweet atmosphere of
hazy blue."
Indian summer in alt its un
mistakable haziness and warmth
and light has already this au
tumn been scattering its benefi
cence over many sections of our
country and adding zest to the
tasks which daily await us. To
those whose cares are not too
heavy, this delightful season can
scarcely fail to inspire hope and
add to the joys of living.
Indian summer is a condition
rather than a definite period of
autumn. We usually think of this
dreamy and exhilarating weath
er as occurring in October, yet it
is often clearly recognized in
September or as late as Novem
ber. Some years there are two
or three definite spans of real
Indian summer.1-
Study of early weather rec
ords indicates clearly that the
name originated in America
about the year 1800. The first
reference to it appeared in Major
Denny s journal in 1794 when
he wrote, "Pleasant weather. In
dian summer is here."

After this, many references
are found. One writer said of it,
"The atmosphere has a haziness
which makes distant objects ap
pear indistinct At the same time
a genial warmth prevails and
there is seldom any wind. The
Indian summer is so delightful
that one would suppose the
country had been transplanted
to some celestial clime." Another
said, "This singular occurrence
seems to be to summer what the
vivid recollection of past joys is
to reality."
In 1830 De Qulncy wrote, "In
dian summer crept stealthily . . ,
a summer less gaudy than the
mighty summer of the solstice,
but sweet, golden, silent; happy
though sad . . . sweet mimickry
of summer, a spiritual on fairy
echo of a mighty music that had
departed."
Many, are the attempts to ex
plain the origint of the name,1n-
dian summer. Some suggest that
this was the fall hunting season
of the Indians. The weather was
fine and the game abundant. The
haziness of the air favored a near
approach to the game. Others
say the term was simply a slight
ly changed form for Indian har
vest, since this spell of fine
weather found the Indians busy

gathering their crops of maize,
or Indian corn.
Still others think the name
originated from the customs of
the Indians during this dry,
warm period of the autumn to
burn the grass from the open
ranges intended for pasturo the
following year, or to burn the
underbrush to drive out the
game. As a result -there was a
great deal of smoklness in the
still air.
Some try to connect the sea
son with the Indian legend of
Shawondasse, ruler of the South
Wind. When he sighed In the au
tumn, balmy southern air was
said to bring warmth and delight
over the land thus bringing In
dian summer.
Whatever the origin of the
name, Indian summer remains
a delightful autumn season.
