SAID TO HAVE CONFESSED KILLING FARMER. BY THOMAS R. HENRY. Nineteen hundred and thirty-one was & queer weather year The meteorological statistics for the 12 months have just been assembled at the United States Weather Burcau, Here are some of the outstanding anomolies It was the hottest year on record, for the United States. Europe, to the contrary, has been cold. The same condition probably holds in Northern Asia, where recent dispatches from the Manchurian war front tell of the sufferings of the com- batants becauss of the extreme cold Previous Record Broken. Every part of the United States, ex- cept & narrow strip along the gulf coast was hotter than normal, with cumula- tive temperature excesses ranging from 50 to 2,000 degrees, according to the records compiled by J. B. Kineer. chief of the Division of Agricultural Meteor- ology Over a large part of the country east |. of the Rockies all previous records for cumulative temperatures were broken— sometimes by large margins. The City of Washington, for example, had an ex- cess of temperature over normal of 964 degrees and an excess of 100 degrees over its previous hottest year, 1921. Huron, 8. Dak., had an excess of 2.181 over normal and 900 over its previous year's record The outstanding temperature excesses came during the first and last four months of the year, the middle six months of warm weather swinging close to the normal. Thus, while individual records for the hottest Summer day were broken in many places, any single day excess was not so notable. Frost Line Held North. There was not a single killing frost south of a line extending eastward from Little Rock, Ark., through South Carolina. Ordinarily the Winter frost | linc goes much further South, into | Georgla and the Gulf States Following are some of the temperature excesses piled up for 12 months &t rep- resentative Weather Bureau stations: Atlantic Coast States—Eastport, Me., 803 degrees; Portland, Me., 1,135; Bos- | ton, 1,223; Providence, 1,051; Hartford, 1,433; New Haven, 1,197: New Yerk,‘ 1053; Philadelphia, '1,374; Atlantic | City, '1.305; Baltimore, 1 Washing- ton,” 1202: Norfolk, 716; Richmond, | §56; Asheville, 1,133; Greenville, 1,365. | East Central area—Memphis, 126 Chattanooga, 761; Lexington, 903; In dianapolis, 1,250; Cincinnati, 1.329; Day- ton, 1,174; Columbus, 1154; Pitts- burgh, 678 Great Lakes area—Syracuse, 1484 Rochester, 1,388; Buffalo, 1105; Cleve- land, 1,495, Sandusky, 1300; Toledo, | 1,357, Grand Rapids, 1499: Chicago, 1,730; Milwaukee, 2,075; Duluth, 2,345 Middle West—Minneapolis, = 2,268; Madison, 1.867; Des Moines, 1.804; Peorla, 2.024; St. Louls, 1352; Kansas | City, 1634; Wichita, 1.132; 'Lincoln, Nebr., 1766; Omaha, 1919; Sfoux City, 2,285 Pierre, 1952, Huron, §.

The soil is still unfrozen well northward in the interior of the coun- try; pastures remain green as far north as Central Ilinois, and there are reports of flowers blooming In the southern part of that State. | The relatively warmest weather in December was from Kentucky, Missouri | and Eastern Kansas northward. On the other hand, December tempera- tures were markedly low in many places west of the Rocky Mountains, with the greatest minus departures from normal centering in Utah and amounting to as much as 9 degrees in some places. Other notably warm Decembers in the Central and Eastern portions of the United States occurred in 1877, 1889 and 1923 Precipitation in December was un- usually generous, Mr. Kincer says. in most areas, though the amounts were decidedly below ~normal along the Atlantic Coast, in a small Central- Northern section and in many Rocky Mountain districts. Except locally, the monthly totals were much above nor-, mal between the Appalachian and Rocky Mountains, with many districts having from 115 to as much as 4 times the usual December amounts. It was heavy also in the more Western States especially in California, with more | than the usual amount of snow: the| depths of snow in the higher eleva-| tions of the Western Mountains at the | end - December was unusually great for 2 season of year, with some ele- | vateq districts in® the Pacific States reporting from 9 to 12 feet on the ground near the close of the month. Southeast Dry Spell Broken. ‘The small areas in the Southeast, principally in Florida, that have been persistently dry were recently favored with good rains and the outlook is very | much improved. especially for citrus fruit and_truck.

December was the fourth consecutive month with abnormally high tempera- tures, says Mr. Kincer, the average for the four-month period amounting to from 6 to 8 degrees above normal over large areas and setting & new record for warmth for such an extended period. In other words, the climate over the warmer sections during the last four months has been shifted southward some 200 to more than 400 miles. For | example, for these four months Central Indiana has enjoyed Tennessee weather, Des Moines, Jowa, was shifted south- ward to St. Louis, Mo., and 8t.
