Some recent investigations of the temperature of leaves made in the deserts and mountains of Arizdna and in the Santa Lucia Mountains of California have resulted in the dis- covery that leaves show a very rapid change of temperature at times. These fluctuations are almost constantly go- ing on. Chanzes of from one to three degrees Centigrade were observed in from 20 to 60 seconds, and if a mod- strong wind is blowing the change may amount to five degrees in 30 seconds.

Lucas of the Central bullding. 43 Broadway. For the past five years he has been making weath- er prognostications with signal accu- racy, as the results show. for he has kept tally betweeén his predictions and the actual weather conditions that show the two have run very close Jo- gether. - Starting as far back as the winters of 1914 and 1915 his predictions came through all right ana ever since then he has kept the figures and statistics to prové his claims to foreteliing the seasons. Some of these comparisons he gives as follows: On Dec. 11, 1816, Mr. Lucas predict- ed a cold winter with quite a lot of snow. This came true as up io March 2 there was a severe winter and quite a fall of snow on that date. On Oct. 30. 1917, he warned that we ought to prepare for a very stormv, windy. cold winter, a regular oid fash joned New England winter. On Nov. 24 he followed ihis with the word that Doys could set out their skates and sleds on Thanksgiving day. and sure enough they did. with the ice 3 1- inches thick and snow enough for slid ing on Broadway hill and other places. Right along through the win- ter the weather played into his hand On Deéc. 14th ten inches of snow fel on the 15th € ice harvest began. inches thick®and better. All the houses were filiéd by Christmas. Th are his temperature records for that winter: . Triday.' Dec. 28—Zero. turday, Deec. 29—3 below zero. Sunday . 30—17 below zero. Mondas . 31—13 belaw zero. Tuesda 1—S8 below zero. E 9 below zero. Thursday. Jan. below zero. December and January of that win- ter were the coldest in the history of the weather bureau which was estab- lished in 1871. He predicted that February wonld be the worst month of the winter. The record bears him out. The month haa oniy eight clear days to its credit. and but cight days on which there was not some rain snow. with a mean temperature of 2 degrees above zero, which is 2.8 de- grees below the average temperature for the list 40 years. There was a total precipitation of 6.31 inches which | is 2.44 inches above the normal for 40 years. - The total snowfall was 34.7 inches and altogether that month of ¥ebruary. would seem to deserve being called the werst month of ils name for many years. Weather Pre | _het Lucas predicted on April 3, 1918, ¢ the coming summer would be hot and dry. June 1 and June 2 were the hottest in 40 vears for ihose dates. 100 and 101 in the shade. Jul. and were the hottest in bureau’s history, and 8 were in the for the h but it summer just as | weather the Aug. 6 and Aug. 16 shade. So much was also a very dry Mr. lucas predicted. Verw many of the predictions by this Norwich weather prophet have {been published in TFhe Bulletin. On| Oct. 21, 1218, he predicted-that the fali would be late and that winter would be late in setting in and would is ice.
