SUNSHINE RECORD. 
On June 4th, paper of suitable quality for records having been 
obtained, the Negretti & Zambra sunshine recorder was returned 
to the old position which it had occupied previous to September 
8, 1887. 
A full record of all sunshine was secured up to October Ist, 
when a Station observer was cut off from access to the place, and 
the record was again discontinued. Below is a comparison of sun- 
shine record for 1888, with the corresponding periods of previous 
years. |
