Ill order that we may thoroughly realise how we stand when 

 compared with other countries, I have extracted from the " Quarterly 

 Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society" for 1899 the following 

 table, drawn up by Mr. Campbell Bayard for use in his Presidential 

 Address to that Society. Although the sum opposite the Cape Colony 

 has been altered from jQ(>oo to ;^8oo, and a few additions made, 

 the table remains the same in other respects.
