The end of the index farthest from the bulb shows the lowest temperature reached. These Thermometers are of the greatest value to planters, farmers and any one wishing to know '*how cold it got" during the night. It would be impossible with the ordinary thermometer to exercise scfficient watch- fulness to obtain accurate results.

They should not be exposed to the sun and rain. It is as much of importance tor any one to have a reliable thermometer as it is to have a reliable watch or clock.
