Extreme Heat in the West

The hot wave has not been wholly confined to the East. The upper part of Sacramento Valley suffered extreme heat during July 14 and 15. Temperatures were recorded as follows: Red Bluff 115, Redding 114, Dunsmuir 108, Anderson 117; taken from thermometers on the sides of buildings. But there have been no prostrations from heat. The atmosphere is dry and the nights are comparatively cool. The temperature in Portland, Oregon, rose to 98 degrees, which is very warm for that city.
