JULY FORECASTS.

Word and Works: Pleasant summer days,
for the most part, will prevail at the opening

Mercury equinox falling together on Tune
10Th, may prolong cloudiness with storms in
extreme east into July, but westerly and
central regions willhare q change to fair and
cooler, with rising barometer. BY the 4th a
warm wave will be well defined on the west
ern side of the Countrywide barometer Will
be falling in the same region and storms
will start toward the exst. From he 4th to
7th, all the phenomena of o regular storm
period may be exy ected a. all points, as they
march in regular order from west to east.
Fair weather to the east, growing warmer
with winds from east to south, during the
early part of the storm periods, are a. much
parts Of the phenomena of a period as actual
storms of rain, wind and thunder. The
change to cooler, westerly winds, with bar
ometer rising, in regions west of storm areas
are also physical necessities, falling in and
bringing up the rear the moment the storm
area passes east of any given point. II these
changes to cooler. westerly winds, With bar
ometer beginning to rise. do not follow
storms; If warm south winds hold, and bar
ometer stands or falls lower, another ''sec-
tion"o of the storm train is sure to follow
within a few hours. The 10th and 18th are
r~eactionary days, at which time IL will grow
verp warm, and If active storms do not APP:

effects toward the storm period of 18th to
18th, storms will appear early in the period,
checking the growing heat, and bringing
temporarily more pleasant weather.
If the new moon on the 18th end her in

on 10th and 11th, q crisis OF heat and storm
will befreached about those days, If she
reachesforward to storm period OF 18th to
18th, heat and storms will come to a crisis
early In that period. We expect the latter.
About the 22nd. growing warmth, with all
the changes that precsde and attend q return
to storminess, win appear. These disturb

ter. with threatening clouds n local rains,
may be expected at this and all fully periods
but we think there will be a general lack OF
rain. The last period for July rum from 26th
to 3Oth, the crisis falling co-incident withthe
full moon OF the 28Ch. AT this time we will
nave entered into the Venus period, which
Is central on August9, and If we are to have
general rains from the Venus disturbance
in August, they are apt to begin in earnest
at this last July period. We look for much
violent disturbance at this time, and hope
for s~easonable rains, but shall not DO sur
prised If there are more severe bluster, cleo
trical displays M rapid transitions from
heat to cool than rain. At all syents we ma;
reasonably expect a respite from summer
heat at the close of the last July storms.
