In<\/span>\u00a0conjunction with these surveys, he said, experiments were being made by\u00a0Australian<\/span>\u00a0scien-<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

tists into methods of producing local weather\u00a0changes<\/span>\u00a0by fog dispersal, frost prevention, and<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

artificial rain stimulation.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
