and another in November. At the St. Bernard the maximum 
number occurs in August, and a single minimum in 
November. 
The mean daily amount for the year at Geneva is 0.1069 
inches ; annual amount, 39.0719 inches: at the St. Bernard — 
daily amount, 0.0865 inches ; annual amount, 31.5941 inches. 
The total annual number of oscillations is, at Geneva, 
171.3; St. Bernard, 157.2.

Six winter months 84.4 76.2 
Six summer months 86.9 81.0 
1848 was the year of maximum oscillation, and 1857 of 
minimum oscillation. 
A number of oscillations above the average at Geneva is 
accompanied by a less amount of oscillation than a number of 
oscillations below the average. At the St. Bernard the exact 
converse of this holds good. 
In January, February, and December, a temperature above 
the average, at Geneva, is accompanied by a greater amount 
of oscillation than when the temperature is below the average. 
During the remaining months of the year the converse of this 
exists. For the year, a temperature below the average is 
accompanied by a larger amount of oscillation at Geneva than 
when the temperature is below the average. 
At the St. Bernard, a temperature above the average, in 
the months of August and September, gives a larger amount 
of oscillation than a temperature below the average ; during 
the other months of the year the converse of this holds good. 
For the year, a temperature below the average gives the 
largest amount of oscillation, as at Geneva.
