The comparison between the average for the province and the rain fall for sections of the North Land will be especially interesting for the present year on account of the fact that it has seemed this summer as if the North had suffered from too much rain which the South has endured a regular drouth. The figures for 1929, however, are also interesting. even at this date. The average rainfall for the province for 1929 was 24.83 inches with rain on 82 days.
