Slight Precipitation
Occured Last Night
Although. Ithere was a slight precip
itation tost evening in Sa!m, there
was hardly enough moisture to make
what officially ig known as a rain
fall. Since tho present drought began
there hasi been several traces of rain
fcut not enough to officially break the
record, according To the usa'S of the
weather office hoTe.
The last r,eal rain .in Salem was May
19, when there was a precipitation of
only .05 of an inch after a rather dry
epring. And whilo the word now
stands for a drought of 60 days, the
year 1014 experienced a genuine
drought of 72 days when there was no
-ainifaH in Salem between June 27
und September 7.
Not until ithis your has there been a
month of June entirely rainless. June
f 1909 was armcMt a rainiest month as
there was a precipitation of only .IS
of an inch. June of 1911 was also a
record mouth, for light precipitation,
s -there was only .85 of an inch of
ain that month.
It is no uncommon thing in this part
of Oregon for the month of July or
'August to pass without rainfall. July
of 1S99 w entirely rainless and for
July of 1!05 there was Only .05 of an
inch of Taan. August of 1905 was also
dry month with its .03 of an inch of
Tain.
There was no rainfall at all during
tho .months of July and August of 1900
This happened again in July and Au
gust of 1910 and again in the same
nonths of 1914. July of 1H)3 was one
Of the record1 dry months with a pre
cipitation of only .02 of an ineh. An-
Igust of 1909 was a record breaker with
ita rainfall of onlv .02 of an inch.
The wettest month knoura in fcalera
once the official records have tioen
ltopt was 7Vemr?r of 1917. It rained
very day in the month ercepting
four ond the total rainfall for thejjj.
Imonth was -14.03 inches. The rainiest
day Salem has seen for many a yea $
was on December 19 of last year when
the rainfall was 4.05 inches within 24 )jc
lours. Tho guago of the river on De-
cemiber 20, 1917, following the heavy
Tains was 24 feet above th low water 4c
mark.

The effects of tliStncrcased pro
luction campgi in Western Cana
da are already noticeable. All over
the country iarnHri are enlarging
and improving tmS lierds, while
raising, but the possibilities of quick
returns with the former have blind
ed many to thi advantages of the
latter.
The movement of pure bred stock
nr . r- .1 . ' J
many others, desiring to emulate to Western Canada is going on con-
their success, af entering mixed
Farming in earneai. Besides feeling
It a patriotic duty to produce as much
food as possble, more and more
farmers are finding that mixed farm
ing pays. Of course, this is not a
new realization. The most success
ful fanners of the West are those
who have divided their attentions be
tween grain trrowintr and live stock
tinually from dav to dav. from
week to week. Today it is Aberdeen-Angus
ar.d Shorthorns, yester
day it was Jerseys and Herefords;
last week all these and other breeds
as well. One day dairy cattle pre
dominate, another day beef cattle,
and another dual purpose animals.
They are brought from Eastern Can
ada, from all Darts of the States,
from England and Scotland and even
from other parts of Europe. Al
ready possessing some of the larg
est ana most valuable herds of par
ticular breeds of cattle, the Western
Provinces of Canada bid fair to be
come one of tLe greatest cattle coun
tries in the world. They have every
advantage for the raising of cattle
economically healthy climate, low
priced lands on which grow nourish
ing foods, an abundance of .clear
water, convenient markets, etc. And,'
what is more important, these ad
vantages are beginning to be fully
reconi:'.3d by the settler.
