THE BISM ARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, APRIL 8, 1936 Tornado Season Is Here! March and April Are Character- istic for High Winds—Nature Association Lists Destructive Spring Storms Washington, April 3—This is the tornado season, for there are seasons for storms just as there are for roses and sweet corn. The dust storm that came down out of the Gobi desert 1500 miles away and smothered Shanghai a few days ago is but an example of what wind can do, says the American Nature association. Sand storms from the Sahara have traveled far over the Atlantic ocean. There are always reports of high winds around springtime. The fa- mous blizzard of 1888 was from March 11 to 14. This swept the northern half of the United States. The Samoa hurricane of March 16, 1889, wrecked American and German| . warships in the harbor of Apia, with heavy loss of life, The St. Louis tornado of May 27, 1896, was the most destructive of the three tornadoes that have occurred in large American cities, the others be- ing the Louisville tornado of 1890 and the Omaha tornado of 1913, Violent Rotary Winds Records storms occur.in spring and fall. A tornado is a cloud—an upright, revolving, roaring, devastating cloud But it is not a typhoon, a monsoon or a hurricane, Above all it is not a “cyclone.” Typhoons and monsoons are storms covering large areas, hun- dreds of miles in diameter, and they show that devastating | Here is pictured a tornado in action in Nebraska.

Statistics show that nearly 80 per cent take form in the first three months of spring. Their Playground Tornadoes seldom occur outside the United States. The Mississippi val- | ley reserves them mainly for itself. Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Mis- souri run neck and neck for funnel- cloud honors. Nebraska easily takes second place. Then comes Missis- sippi, Alabama, Iowa, Illinois, the Dakotas and Minnesota. Outside this region the whirling cloud seldom strikes, It is unknown in California. New England is never visited. The Portland storm of November 26 and 27, 1898, is an example of the danger of ignoring storm » The steamer Portland, which furnished the object lesson in this case, was one of more than 140 vessels wrecked by the storm on the New England coast. 100,000 Drowned In the Backerunge cyclone, October, 1876, more than 100,000 people were drowned by the storm waves over the ‘Ganges delta. In the Tay bride dis- aster of December 28, 1879, the bridge over the Firth of Tay, in Scotland, was blown down while a passenger train was passing over it. ‘ Closely connected with the devel- opment of weather forecasting is the “Crimean storm” of November, 1854. This tempest raged over the Black sea and played havoc with the fleets and camps of the allied forces-en- gaged in the Crimean war. ‘The French astronomer Le Verrier, | director of the Observatory of Paris, | collected information concerning the Progress of the storm over Europe which convinced him that if tele- graphic reports from the western part of its coufse had been available its disastrous effects might have been averted, As a result of this inquiry, he drew up plans for an international tele- graphic storm-warning service, which was established by the French gov- ernment, and the co-operation of other European countries in 1855, Within the next two decades nearly all the civilized countries of the world Ride Ends In Death Ruth Shaw (above), unemployed bookkeeper, was found dead beside @ canyon ,road the morning after she left a dance hall at Salt Lake City with a casual acquaintance for an automobile ride.

(Associated Press Photo) organized similar services of their own, and the scope of these under- takings was enlarged to include a general system of weather forecast- ing from charts based on telegraphic reports. The native name for the Hawallan trigger fish, “Humuhumu-nuku-nuku- @ puaa,” is really a prayer. This is one of the many sacred fishes of the natives. DATED COFFEE Chase & San- born, 2 Ibs. ....
