The lower curve repre- sents the variations in the opening and closing (scale, %4 of an inch); the others repre- sent the mean relative humidity, mean temperature and barometer in the order named. barometer curve coincides very closely with that of the frost cracks; in fact, there was such a close relationship between the temperature and barometer readings and opening and closing.
