JULY TEMPERATURES AND RAIN.
As no writer has ever lived whose
A.. -.
by all who have read them, frequent
explanations are necessary In order
that fair proportion OF my readers
may give a right construction to my
weather forecasts.
There is a broken chord somewhere
that by sympathetic vibrations or
otherwise incapacitates the Engllsh-I
language from being understood even
when written in the plainest news
paper or magazine sentences.
In my long range forecasts of tenn
perature and rain or drouth II Is not
possible to be exact in all particulars,
but try to make the forecasts practi-
cal. My weather tables Enthusiastically
indicate the general characteristics OF
the crop and the winter seasons. but
It IN very difficult 10 determine exactly
when the change from a drouth TO ex-
cesslve rains or from long heated
term TO a long low temperature will
occur.
But can. as my readers well know.
give fair warning OF drouth, as 1
did in reference to the April and May
drouth OF this year and OF the break
ing up OF the drouth as / did in refer
ence to June for west Of the Missis-
sippi and continuance OF the drouth
well along into June for east OF the
Mississippi.
II readers will note carefully all these
forecasts they viii find them practi-
cally correct, although drouth pre-
dloted for one month may run over a
little into the following month, and the
same may occur as TO temperatures.
There is no means OF knowing the
future of the weather except by the
records OF past weather. and as these
records are often very deficient our
weather rules cannot always be per-
feet.
/ have Just completed my third cal
eulation for July. and the following are
the results:
East Of the Alleghanles and north of
Washington City the temperature Will
be about and the rainfall ahoye nor
