January 13, 1912,
Editor Reporter :
I notice in the erlumne of the Re-
porter occasional reference to weather
conditions and thermometer records.
It may be of interest to have a gentle
diversion by a knowledge of the South
Dakota temperatares even If it makes
you shiver to think of them and im
azine just what they really mean. The
extreme continuous eold weather for
the last seventeen days might be call
#d a record breaker In mafy parts of
the country but especially so in the
Northwest, Here are the thermome-
ter records from New Year's day to
January 13th : 20, 20, 22 25, 28 26
81, 18, 12. 20 24 44 degrees below ze»
ro. The 12:h was the ¢oldest day I ev-
er experienced, that is, when I dared
to venture outside the house. I had
heard of 42 below zro weather and
even lower, but I now know more
ahout it than by the other fellow’s
ghivering and then telling about it
Fortunately the night was calm which
greatly reduced the suffering that oth.
erwise would have been the case
among those unprepared for such ex-
treme tests of endurance, .
I notice at Pernbina, North Dakots,
the therometer registered 54 below
yesterday morning; sccordiongly, we
here cen endeavor to imagine how ten
degrees lower than our
would sffect us. The atmosphere
here is dryer than in your and

LIFE OF THE SUN.
Old Sol's Heat Will Warm the Earth
For Millions of Years.
The reason why the sun retains its
heat in spite of the quantity that it
gives out is explained by the fact that
heat is generated by the fall of par
ticles toward its center. The diameter
of the sun diminishes nannually by 150
meters, a little more than the ten-mil
Honth part of its total,
According to estimates made, 30,006
vears will pass before the solar radius
diminishes enough tq produce an ef
fect appreciable by the most delicate
instruments, alwavs supposing that
the astronomical! instruments of the
future will be similar to instru
ments of the present. By like calenip-
tions it is estimated that the sun wil
