SCENES IN THE LOCAL WEATHER BUREAU

NJ EARLY all readers of daily
~ paper think of the weather bu-
~ reau mainly in connection with
its daily forecasts, and an almost in
dispensable part of the preparations
for a picnic or other pleasure trip is a
set of sighting remarks about the
weather man. Yet the less important
end of the weather bureaus work is
that which appears in the daily paper
as slightly cloudy" or unsettled
weather with occasional showers" AS
with other avenues of the governments
work the results which annually save
thousands of dollars to residents of a
single section of the country do not
appear the most prominently.
At the Los Angeles office of the
weather bureau. where A. B. Wollaber
is the forecaster in charge and W. d.
Fuller is the observer, there is much
done which illustrates what the gov
ernment does to save money for its
citizens. For instance the frost warn
ings are of immense value to the
fornia. In time of emergency this
work is not confined to the ordinary
printed cards sent out when sufficient
time permits, but the telephone is used
energetically. Likewise, in the case of
Storm warnings men who have interests
at sea frequently benefit in a way that
may prevent loss of life in addition to

a highly important protection of ship
ping. Many a housewife who grum-
bles at the weather bureau has a small
conception of the great benefits it pro-
vides to the orange grower and the
steamship captain.
The work of Forecaster Wollaber
reaches out in other ways consider
ably beyond the city limits of Los An
geles. He has established a number
of stations in Pasadena, San Bernar-
dino and other nearby cities which give
their residents the advantage of the
bureaus service. A highly important
work through evaporation stations of
the Salton sea is under his direction.
and Mr.. Wollaber has been spending
considerable time in that section ar
ranging for the work of old stations
and opening new ones. Another feature,
particularly of interest to Los An
geles because it is connected indirect
ly with the progress of the Owens river
aqueduct, has to do with the register
of water resources and snowfall in the
region from which the water supply
of Los Angeles will come when the
aqueduct shall be completed. Mr.. VOL
laber has lately received authority to
take up this work, and in the coming
summer he will secure the services of
observers and establish gauges to re-
cord the snowfall. The work will ma

terially aid the determination of the
water commissioners and the records
made will be of great value as the
population of Los Angeles passes the
million mark. 1t is legitimately
feature of the weather bureaus routine,
If such a term may be APPLIED to so
unusual a sort of work which is re-
garded as a usual thing by Uncle
Sans men.
The Los Angeles office of the weather
bureau was opened July l, 1877, and it
has been literally at work every min
ute of the time since then. 1t is we'll
equipped with instruments for keep
ing the records of temperature, wind
direction and velocity, precipitation and
other data collected. The modern in
struments are arranged to catch the

out the following statement:
One problem that confronted che
committee was the question of rev

nations has been decreased for nearly
two years and thus has affected our
commerce and greatly reduced our
res<fues, SO that we have large
deficit. but the revenue under the pres
ent law are improving from month to
month as business conditions are be
coming better Last normal year OF
imports was the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1906; 1907 was unusually
prosperous year and revenues fIom
customs exceeded those of 1906 by
$32 100000. The committee has there
fore the year 1906 as basis to for IN
their estimate of the revenue prodpc.
ing qualities of the new bill. Should
the next fiscal " ir prove prosperous
and the normal conditions OF 1896 re-
turn, on acooun. oil lhe large intrea Sc
of population the revenues S for 1919
would show considerable increase over
estimates N Tie committee. With a
return to anything like normal condi
tions during the next fiscal year 1t is
safe to predict that the deficit will be
entirely wiped OUT
