These warnings were continued during the
past season with entire success, and with
great benefit to the sugar interests. 1t is be-
ieved that similar warnings would be of ad-
vantage to the tobacco growers of your State.
Warnings could be sent about two days in
advance of killing frosts and if promptly
circulated would prevent loss to planters by
enabling them to secure at least a portion of
the crop.
You are respectfully requested to consider
this subject and to inform me if such action
on the part of this service would be bene-
fetal to the tobacco interests of your section,
and the length of time which should be COW
cred each year by such forecasts.
I have fully recognized the practical i'm
portance of this and similar work for the ben
eft of the agricultural interests of the coun-
try, but I have not been provided with suf-
ficient force to carry out my views. I an
ticipate favorable action by Congress during
the present session to increase the efficiency
of the signal corps, and much greater ex
tension of the usefulness of this service to all
interests affected by the weather conditions
of the country may be expected.
