Increase of Storms and Flocds.
The Northwestern Railroader puts
forth a novel theory to account for an
alleged increase of storms and floods
in tneee latter years. It says »that
there are more than. 30,000 locomo
tives in use ih North America, and
that the vapor from these sent out in
to the atmosphere each week will
measure more than 50,000,000,000
cubic yards, which must be returned
aa rain; or 7,000.000,000 cubic yards
a day—quite enough io produce rain
fall every twenty-four hours. Other
non-condensing steam engines add
eight times as much moje, so that the
