We nave often explained that an
annual crisis in magnetic and cleo
trica pe|rturbations occurs about
March The nth, embracing four or
i've DAYS before and after that cen

earth and atmosphere will show

Earth currents, a4roIall lights. eSpeci-
ally far to the northward. and vicious
electrical storms in the south are
among the things naturally to be ex-
pected. March billiards in the north
west covering the northern side OF the
country and into Canada and east
ward to the Atlantic are probable.
y regular storm period is central
on the 18TH, embracing the 18th to
the 18th. The New Moon falls on the
l4th and crosses the celestial equator
on the 10TH. These facts call for a
continuation of the disturbances
beeinning at the preceding period.
High temperature, low barometer
and general unrest of the elements of
Earth and sky will eliminate in

A reactionary storm period is CEN
trail on the Goth, Dist and 22nd.
This period is exactly on the turn of
the March equinox. 1t is within a
few days of the center of the Jupiter
period, and covered by the Mercury
disturbance, central on the 25th.
The Moon is also in apogee and at
first quarter on the Dist. The con-
junction of Saturn With the Earth
and sun j. also a factor in the gel.-
eral unrest of Earth and air at this
CINE. All these facts should lead to
watchfulness during the storm periods
in March. The Goth. 2lst and 22nd
are among the days OF great storm
possibilities.
q regular storm period extends
from the 18th to the end of March.
The central day of the period is the
9th. Within this last storm period
for March we have the Mercury
period central on the 25lh, the
"Vulcan' period central on the 9th,
the Jupiter period central on the
18th, with full Moon on the 18th and
Moon on the celestial equator on the
30tE. There is every reason to APP
prehend storms and other phenomena
out Of the ordinary at this period.
1t is n of the most critical times,
in all probability, during the whole
of the present Vernal equinox.
Hurricanes on the south coasts and
tornadoes in the interior, are possible
and probable. Late billiards out Of
the northwest are also among the
probabilities during the closing DAYS
of the month. This is a time when
general seismic unrest will prevail,
with volcanic outbursls and severe
earthquakes in many parts OF the
globe. Such phenomena will reach a
maximum, in all probability, from
March the Goth to April the End,
taking the 18th and 30th as the
central days of greatest seismic
possibility and activity.
We have several times during the
years past explained the fact that
there are times when conditions call
for great and excessive storms, but
instead of storms. phenomenal ex-
tremes of temper allure and greatly
aggravated seismic disturbances in-
terpose and mark the periods. So
we will say of the last storm period
in March, if storms and storminess
do not reach a great and general
crisis about the Goth TO the 31st, the
intense solar strain, caused by
planetary conditions, will express it.
