ANNUAL RAIN TABLE. 



As tlie evaporation for the year exceeds the quantity of rain, it may be adrisa^ 

 ble to describe the evaporating apparatus. It conbists of a hollow cylinder, one 

 foot in diameter, elevated to the same height as the rain-guage, and sheltered by a 

 copper roof, placed some inches above tlic edge of the bason. The eves of the roof 

 project, nhich permits a free current of air, but eicludes the rain.
