Not many people in the United
States are fully aware of how rapidly
Italy is advancing in Industrial impor'

has in the last ten years shown as
promising development in an indus
trial way as is TO be found anywhere
in Europe The never-failing water
supply of the snow-topped mountains
is being utilized by the electrical en-
sineers in a way which promises to
convert northern Italy into great in
dustrial state. Nowhere in Europe is
there a population better fitted to aid
in an industrial development. The
people are dexterous. quick to learn
and industrious, and up to the present
time the general wage scale compares
fsvorably with that of any competitors
which they have to meet. The result
of these favorable conditions has been
for instance. the development of the
silk industry at a rate which sounds
like statistics of American indus

WEATHER FORECASTS
LONG RANGE PREDICTIONS IoLa
No Legitimate Basis for Estimate;
Based on the Moons Phases or
Position Of the Planets.

The chief of the Weather Bureau
has recently placed before the public
pamphlet entitled Long Range
Weather Forecasts. by Prof. E. B. Gar.
riott. that is full of interesting things
to one who is a seeker after the truth
regarding these decisions. A great
many things in it are worthy OF fur
Their publication but We wish. at this
time, simply to give its conclusions:
l. That systems of long range
weather forecasting that depend upon
planetary meteorology; moon phases.
cycles. positions, or movements; stel-
lar Influences. or star divinatons. In
dications afforded by observations OF
animals. birds. and plants. and esti-
mates based upon days. months. sea
sons, and years have no legitimate ba-
sis.
2. That meteorologists have made
exhaustive examinations and compare
sons for the purpose of associating
the weather with the various phases
and positions of the moon in an earn
est endeavor TO make advances In the
science along the line of practical
forecasting, and have found that while
the moon, and perhaps the planets.
exert some influence upon atmos-
pheric tides, the influence is too slight
and obscure to justify a consideration
of lunar and planetary effects in the
actual work of weather forecasting.
3. That the stars have no apprecia-
BILE influence upon the weather.
A. That animals. birds, and plants
show by their condition the character
of past weather. and by their actions
the influence of present weather and
the character of weather changes that
may occur within a few hours.
8. That the weather OF days.
months. seasons, and years affords no
indications of future weather further
than showing present abnormal condl
tions that the future may adjust.
6. That six and seven-day weather
periods are too ill-defined and irregu.
ar to be applicable to the actual work
Of forecasting.
I. That advances in the period and
accuracy of weather forecasts depend
upon more exact study and under
standing of atmospheric pressure over
great areas and a determination OF the
Influences. probably solar, that are re
sponsible for normal and abnorma!
distributions of atmospheric pressure
over the earths surface.
s. That meteorologists are not an
tagonistic to honest. well directed EFF.
orts TO solve the problem of long.
range forecasting; that, on the con.
rrary. they encourage all work in this
field and condemn only those who, for
notorlety or profit or through misdi'
rected zeal and unwarranted assump-
ions. bring the science of meteorology
into disrepute.
9. That meteorologists appreciate
the Importance to the world at large
Of advances in the period of forecast.
ing and are inclined to believe that
the twentieth century will mark the
beginning of another period in meteor
illogical science.
