AS TO JUNE WEATHER
PROPHETIC MESSENGER HAS IT
AL FIGURED OUT.

The Minneapolis Prophetic Messenger
says in its weather prediction for June:
During the 18th, 18th and 18th un ettled
weather with light west winds viii be the
natural order through the central tier
of states of the great west and any one
of these dates are likely to bring destruc-
tive storms.
Following the period we begin to ap-
proach the summer so-stice, or where ur
earth reaches it's lowest point below the
suns equator, and is therefore the turn
| ing point of all life north of the equator.
Weather phenomena usually act very
strangely from the 18th to the 18th Of June
of each year, therefore it would be good
policy for the casual reader to reason
somewhat upon the conditions that sur
round the weather prophet at this time.
Approaching the 18th the tempera ture
should change to warmer and possibly be
very hot in the central portion of the
Mississippi valley, while the change far
ther nOrthward will not occur until we
up to the 18th. Thunder showers are
strongly indicated in the south and south
west, but it is hardly possible that they
will be Of any serious consequence, and
there is also a possibility of hail in the
central portion Of the country passed
through by the Missouri river accompany
ing any sudden thunder showers at about
these dates. AS we approach the Goth
slightly unsettled Wea her with bIisk west
wind will be the probable results, then
changing TO the east quite suddenly, and
bringing rain northWard and in fact over
the greater portion of our map as given
for the Mississippi valley. From he 21st
to the 25th unsettled weather as the re-
suits of the equinox, yet the rainfall viii
not be sufficient in the northern S ates
The 25th or thereabouts indicates d Op
In the temperature and cooler nights,
which will be quite notice able IN the north
and northwest by the morning of the 25th
and reaching further south in successive
days. The 2Sth is unsett' ed with pcssibe e
rains in the south and central states, to
be followed by a rising tempera ture on or
about the last day of the month.
During the past four months about 90
per cent of all weather changes predicted
date mentioned but did not reach the
south until the next day or two success
sive days. If the change does not reach
you on the day don't get the idea that 1t
is not coming. -r '' rt'--.- 'e-
During the past months we have re-
ceived many letters from people asking
why we do not predict some violent
country. TO this we reply:
In the April number we mention the
fact that there were no destructive storms
indicated during the month of April, and
had we expected any during May we
would not hesitate to speak of the fact,
but the result was that only very few,
and those not severe storms occurred dur
ing the month of May. But during the
month of June there are indications of
considerable number of quite destructive
wind Stirms. and the crank might term
them storms, tornadoes. cyclones, etc"
1t is rot our purpose to keep our readers
scared to death and having them flying to
their cellar on the slightest provocat'on.
If they will only watch our period for
storm conditions and then keep close to
the cellar they will sleep better and live
