As Taylor graphically shows (1918: Solar control model), the pre- vailing line of the center of high pressures in mid-winter coincides nearly with the northern boundary of South Australia, but in midsum- mer it is far south of the state. The prevailing winds in summer, therefore, are from the east, or southeast, and are drying winds. But at this time occasional lows from the northern part of the continent may extend far to the south, reaching the northern part of South Australia, bringing rain. In winter, however, the center of liighs, as before remarked, crosses the extreme north of the state, the belt of westerlies touches the extreme south, and a belt of variabes lies be- tween. The dry easterlies are now far to the north, and rain occurs in.
