Abstract
FALLS of dust on a large scale are of rare occurrence, but one very often hears that in the south of Europe at such and such a place rain had fallen and had brought with it, and deposited on the ground, fine red or yellow dust. Thus on April 24, 1897, a south wind carried to southern Italy a great quantity of dust which was supposed to be of African origin.
