In order to se-cure such data our meteorological equipment was again in-creased by securing a quadruple register, tipping bucket raingauge, electric sunshine recorded, anemometer, and windvane. (Plate X.) This outfit gave almost continuous recordsas to rainfall, sunshine, wind velocity and wind direction. Thepractical data secured with the aid of these instruments dur-ing the past season is very valuable, and careful observationscontinued for the next few years should yield reliable infor-mation of very great value in connection with the study ofthis disease, and possibly of others. Our records for the grow-ing season of 1914 begin with Apri
