The total amount of rain for each of the seasons for twenty 

 years — 1850-69 — is given in table III (4). Much the largest 

 amount being in the summer, as may be seen from the 

 amounts greatest, least, and means, at the bottom of the 

 table; spring and autumn having the same mean — eleven and 

 one-third inches— while summer is nearly one-third more, and 

 three times as much as during winter. 



Illustrating table III (5), we give diagram Gr, exhibiting the 

 same results in a more visible form.
