0.9868 and a regression coefficient of old readings to new readings of 1.21. The monthly 6-foot pan readings can be converted to estimated &foot pan values by means of the regression equation Y(4-ft. pan) = 1.2137 X -.016 where X equals the 6-foot pan ~eading. Table 1 also gives a comparison of actual 4-foot pan readings ~and the estimated readings from converted 6-foot’ pan data. The precision of the regression equation is indicated by the standard error of estimate, Sy, of predicting Y for any single observation of X. The range of the error for these data is from .66 to .60 inches. It appears that the relationship between the two pans is satisfactory at any location, but that each location will have to establish its own regression equation. WJLLIAM E.
