Show AX OLD INHABITANT STORY Every one ha some hot weather recollections re-collections days like these said E L l ron of Omaha I am not good at remembering dates but when I was a boy about 45 years ago there was a summer sum-mer that started in very late there was a killing frost during the latter part of June I became hot the 1st day of July and for three months there was not a day that the thermometers did not register a high a 100 degrees some time during the day I did not rain for three months July August and September passed without any relief whatever I Streams and springs died up and in the part of Ohio I lived in Harrison county there was > a water famine Animals died In great numbers from effects of the heat This summer is hot enough but when I contrast it with that one about 1850 or 1S31 I find good reason for being thankful thank-ful Star that it is no worse Washington |
