This disturbance will come between
two periods of very low temperatures.
and while for a day or two the tempera-
lures Of the disturbance will go to high
degrees the average of few days of
the highest temperatures will be only
moderate. Before ana after thi, lis
turbance passes the temperatures will be
unusually low.
Muc radical weather may be expected
during the fall and winter months and
this disturbance will be Of more than
usual force i'll all its features Rainfall
will increase over the two weeks pre-
ceding.

Temperatures OF this disturbance will
average much lower than those of the
preceding and the cool wave will be a
cold wave causing fall of twenty de-
greeS or more and carrying freezing
temperatures and frosts further south
than is usual for this season of the year.
The storms OF the preceding disturb
ance will continue to develop more than
usual intensities and those of this dis
turbance will be Of the radical class.
During last days Of September and first
days of October large high will de-
velop on the continent causing a great
fall in temperatures. This high with its
frosts is expected to nip the top growth
of cotton in northern sections Of the
safton bsl.
About and immediately following Sep
tember 81 great high will bring very
cool weather to most Of the continent
and carry killing frosts far southwark.
All the features that go to make up what
is commonly called weather will be radi-
cal about that time. but the frosts will be
the feature Of s6catest interest. partlcu-

preparing to publish my charts III the
newspapers Heretofore | have pub
lished one general chart each month for
the continent. but | will soon be pre-
pared to publish monthly weather
chart for each Of the FIVE sections, in
cluding Canada. the United States and
Northern Mexico These monthly charts
supplemented by my weekly bulletins
will be i'll reach Of one good newspaper
in each city, and will be my ideal of
practical long range weather forecasts.
A long range weather bureau. with
headquarters at Washington. will be or
ganized will have ample means to sup
port it. and there is no reason why it
may not eventually reach every section
of the world where good weather re-
cords OF forty years or more are OBJ
tainable. These weather forecasts will
be more practical and useful than the
best friends of my work have hoped
These friends are now furnishing me
$500 a montl,-besides a large income
from lewSpapers-preparato TO the eN-
tension OF these long range weather
forecasts
