 clusion that these forecasters know
 ingly perpetrate fraud and do positive
 injury to the public at large"
 The forecasts sent out each day by
 the weather bureau are based on the conditions contained in the weather map which is made from the reports of the observations at She various sta tions throughout the United States and Canada. These observations give the temperature. air pressure precipita-
 ton. state of weather, direction and velocity of the wind, kind and direc- ton SOf clouds All of this data is placed upon the map which shows the conditions of the weather in any sec ton of the United States, and as these conditions change in an easterly direc- tion, or toward she northeast, east or southeast, it is comparatively easy to predict the weather for any state or part of state on any day not more than thirty six or forty eight hours from the date of the map. These predic- iicns are accepted and acted upon as reliable throughout the length and breadth of the land, while the long range forecasts are not considered. of any worth whatever, in fact they are not limited to any definite time or To- cality which is evidently necessary to be of any use to the public.

Long Range Weather Predictions.

Prof. Willis L. Moore, chief of the weather bureau. in a recent article, says: Tt is the opinion of the lead ing meteorologfsts of the world that public interests are injured by the publication of so-called long range forecasts, especially by such predic- tions as relate to severe storms, floods and drouths These forecasts are based on the relative positions of the planets, or the changes in the phases and positions of the moon, or on the periods of increase and decrease in suuspots, or aparent variations in the solar intensity"
 How do these phenomena affect the weather on the earth? No one can tell much less to predict from them wtta any degree of certainty what the weather on the earth will be at any particular locality for any length oC time. Thinking people know that it cannot be done, and all classes of bus mess men who depend, to any degree, upon the weather in the successful transaction of their business. give no attention whatever to such forecasts; they know that they are totally unre liable.
 Prof. Moore further says; AS a re. suit of my personal verifications of the work of longe range weather fore casters. some of whom have so far
