Abstract

IN NATURE, vol. iii. p. 473, it is said, “from Asia Minor we get no scientific records of weather.” Perhaps you will pardon my informing your readers that the Turkish Government has eight telegraphic meteorological stations, besides its Central Observatory at Constantinople, under M. Aristide Coumbary, The stations are Sulina, Varna, Salonika, Fao, Bagdad, Smyrna, and Beyrout.
