During the next few months great
many bottles will be cast upon the shore
Of Lake Michigan. They are TO be thrown
into the wa.or for experimental purposes
by lake captains. VINO will undertake the
service at the request of the United States
government. The experiments are TO be
conducted for the purpose OF determining
the set aud drift Of lake currents. and will
be under the direction Of the weather
bureau. The bottles are to be given ont
to vessel captains, who will agree to throw
them overheard and enter attain date on
the blanks furnished for that purpose. In
order to do this work systematically the
great lakes have been mapped out 10 NUM-
bered sections. commencing at Duluth
and umbering eastward.
There are 40 sections in all, each one
contsining about 1870 square miles. When
the captain throws one Of these bottles in
the water he will place 10 it before 80 dos
ing q slip Of paper, upon which the data
and the position OF the vessel is entered.
On each slip is the request that the finder
send it 10 the chief Of the weather buresu
st Washington or band IL to the nearest
government observer, lighthouse keeper,
or possi master TO be fer ssrded. BY not
ing where the bottles go ashore, data will
be obtained from which the movement OF
the lake currents can be calculated.
