Weather Forecasts.

The first attempt ut scientific fore
casting of the weather was the result
of storm which during the Crimean
war, Nov. II, 1851, almost destroyed
the fleets of France and England. AS
a storm had ragged several days earlier
in France, Valiant, the French min
lister of war, directed that investiga-
tons be made to see if the two storms
were the same and if the progress Of
the disturbances could have been fore
told 1t was demonstrated that the
two were in reality one storm and that
its path could have been ascertained
and the fleet forewarned in ample time
to reach safety.
