WHAT OTHERS SAY

Prof. Moore. l.. S. Weather
Bureau-It is about 81 years since
the official records began to be
tsken by the Weather Bureau.
There has been close and cont:n-
uous study OF data during all that
time, and if the carelessly assumed
notifications of climate were tax
ing place it would have been dis
covered before this. The latest
encyclopedias tell us that there is
no Northumberland case Of a
change OF climate within the last
20OO years. Neither is it posi-
BILE that any change on the surface
of the earth due to man-such as
detOrestatiOn, refOreStation, ag-;-
culture, canals, railroad or tele-
graphs-can have had anything
more than the slightest local effect,
if any, on climatic phenomena
that depend upon the action OF the
whole atmosphere. SO the cal
culationS that have served Us in
the past continue TO be reasonably
dependable Seed-time and harves.
shall not fail, or at least the short
age OF one year shall be balanced
by the abundance of another.
