Excerpt from Teachers Geography: Man and Climate In our continent the hundredth meridian sharply separates the arid west from the rainy east, everywhere north of the 30th parallel. 'the population map shows that the rainy east has a thin or moderate population, while the arid west is mostly scantily peopled. The rainfall data of these maps are the averages of many years. Sometimes one year or several years together are unusually wet or dry. About 1890 there were several unusually rainy years in western Kansas and many people settled there, think ing they were going to have rain enough to raise crops, but the dry years came again and they had to abandon their farms. Less than twenty inches of rainfall in an aver age year appears to be insufficient for farming without irrigation. But while it seems desirable to have from 20 to 40 inches of rain a year, there is no increase of population where the rain increases to 40 or 80 inches. Alabama, Georgia, ' and Mississippi have more rainfall than Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, but fewer people.
