MEASURED BY MUSIC r A AA A learned scientist has as recently shown how the velocity of the wind can be reckoned by noting the musical pitch pich of the sound given out when the wind blows across a stretched wire The principal principal principal prin prin- cipal elements on which the calculation Is based based are the diameter of the wire and the temperature of the air all Th The The- length of the wire is b immaterial so long as it Is not charged Every variation variation varia varia- tion ton in tha winds wind's velocity is faithfully represented by the rising rising- or falling of the pitch of the note sung by the wire
