Qovornrpont Report Shows How Much Rain wo Hava and How Cold it is. Last September Highest Rain fall Ever Recorded Here. Strangeis have sometimes doubted the word of» Thomaavillhui when he told of how 11 inches of rain fell here last September in 86 hours. ‘ The latest issue of the Georgia climate report off ers at least an aid to faith. In tho report, for tho past three issues has bot-n running an excellent, resume of the climate and natural advantages of TliomusviUc. A statistical table appear* giving both the maximum, mini mum an i avera; s uinfall for each month for the past 57 years.

The next highest record to this was September 1903, when only 9. 53inoheH wpro recorded. The impmtnncG of this variation from the not mal can be bettor appreciated when one considers that iu these 3tf hours Imir, full wo received almost ouo fourth of the entire average annual rain fall.

The wettest part of tho year is from June to August,ami the dryest is during tho autumn. Both the wiutor*aud spring seasons afford but little more rain than tho fall. Under normal conditions, July furn ishes the greatest monthly rainfall, averaging 0.83 inches. The dryoat mouth is Novoluber, which has, as a rule, less than three inches of raiu. Tho smallest monthly fail on record however, was in Docombnr 1889, when not a sufficient amount of rain foil during tho entire 31 day a for it to be measured. The uverugo number of rainy days per year is 103, distributed through the several seasons as follows: Winter, 33; spring 21; summer 41; autumn 20. “Tho record shows that Thomas coun ty snffeis little from sevoro and prolong- drought," says Mr. Marbary. Private observation will bear out tho state meat too. Wldle the present drought scorns hard to boar, it is nothing compared with what otjier sections of the state undergo every summer Taking up the matter of temperature the ropo.-t gives tho following tempera ture averages for the <yftoivut mouths. Nature's Gift from the Sunny South No matter how faithful and hon est your cook may be, she is behind tho times if she uses lard or cooking butter for frying and shortening. The great medical and cooking authorities of tho country say so; they endorse Cottolene as the most palatable, healthful and economical cook ing fat on the market. Tho following names of Cottolene endorsers are household words: Mrs. Sarah Tyson Rorer, Mrs. Emma P. Ewing, Marion Harland, Mrs. Eliza R. Parker, Lida Ames Willis, Mrs. Janet M. Hill, Dr. Mary E.
