Isobars, or solid nes, connec: pagn s of equal air pressure; lso- therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. ' The word “high” means high barometric pressure a is usnally accompenied by fair weather: “lo refers to low pressure. and is usually preceded by clondy weatherand rains. usually first appesr on the Wasbington coast. When che pressure is high in_the interior and iow along the coast, and the isobars extend north and south along the cosst. rain is probabls: but when the “low" s inclosed with lsobars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is improb able. With a “high” in the vioinity of Idao, ad the pressure falling to the California coast, warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather n winter. The reverse of these conditious will produce an opposite result. WEATHER BUREAU RKEPORT.

No improvement is shown in ihe qual- {ty of offerings. Hogs continue to be heid back onaccount of the severe weather, and the weec’s recelpts will fall greatly short of the last two weeks. Since Monday but 110,700 hogs huve arrived as compared with 168,333 for the san portion of las: week, 95,170 a year ago and 152 038 two years ago.
