Umbrellas and weather reform in late nineteenth century India and US notes

A rambling column contrasts India’s growing umbrella culture with northerners’ fans, recalling Bellamy’s Looking Backward. It cites Calcutta importing 270,000 umbrellas last year and wryly extols weatherproof streets, hotel umbrella anecdotes, and a Virginia court verdict about taking umbrellas. It also features Kansas crop abundance and various disparate clippings from Kansas, Virginia, and New York.
