In a garden well exposed, clear level 

 country. 



At S.E. angle of a terrace, in a bed of 

 cut heath ; the gauge is 1 ft. 6 in. 

 above the terrace, and about 6 ft. 

 above the next lower one. 



The house 30 ft. off in S.W. is about 

 26 ft. high, all else is clear. About 

 a |- of a mile from No. 217. 



A very roughly made flat-funnelled 

 gauge, placed about 4 ft. from the 

 base of a large hot- house facing S. 

 I have no doubt in rough weather 

 both rain and snow unduly shoot 

 into the gauge. 



On lawn sloping to E., slightly but not 

 injuriously sheltered. 



In the kitchen-gardens, level, and very 221. 

 open position. 



In kitchen-gardens on .slope to S., belt 222, 

 of trees in N., but not near enough 

 to affect gauge. Rim of funnel very 

 flat. 



In garden in front of Bedford Row, 223. 

 sheltered to the W. by houses 40 ft. 

 liigh and 50 ft. distant. 



A very roughly made gauge, in an in- 224. 

 different position. 



Fair exjiosure on lawn, some elms, 225. 

 about 50 ft. high, 100 ft. distant in 

 S.W. Gauge had been indented 

 considerably at one point. The 

 mean diameter as given is believed
