Washington D. c., Oct Last bull
letin gave forecasts of disturbance to|
cross the continent to 5, warm wave
September 80 to October 4, cool wave
5 to 7. This will be a very radical dis
turbanee with killing frosts in northern
sections, a tropical storm on our south
ern coasts and severe storms crossing
the continent.
I expect electrical storms on several
parts of the earth between noon and y
pm. of October l. The problem of
giving exact time and location of these
electrical storms has not been fully
worked out, but | am led to believe that
this electrical storm will occur in the
great central valleys not far from the
longitude of Dayton, Ohio. This cleo
trical storm was predicted in my last
bulletin.
Those in possession of solar tele
scopes are directed to watch the sun
for a new sun spot between noon and
7 pm. October 1. That sun spot is ex-
pected to form about five degrees north
of the suns equator. At noon on Oc-
tober I as we view the center of the
sun, the location of the expected sun
spot will be about twenty degrees west
Of the suns center. Such forecasts are
very difficult and | give the above only
as probabilities
In last bulletin also gave warning
of a hurricane that will be in operation
al, some point not far from our southern
.seacoast on or about October 1. / re-
peat that warning. About the same time
[ will expect to read of severe earth
quakes in India or East India islands
The next disturbance will reach the
Pacific coast about S, cross Pacific slope
by close of 6, great central valleys 7 to
9, eastern sections 10. Warm wave will
cross Pacific slope about S, great central
valleys y, eastern sections 9. Cool wave
will cross Pacific slope about 8, great
central valleys 10, eastern sections II
Unusually warm weather will prevail
with this storm wave but otherwise not
much importance attaches to it. Spleen
did weather for late growth of cotton,
sowing winter grain and for fall plow7
ing It will also be good weather for
farmers to deliver grain, but prices will
be better if they can wait till later. I'm
less farmers and planters learn not to all
rush into the markets early in the sea-
son of delivery they can not hope to get
best prices.
These bulletins have never n1isled
farmers and planters about when to sell,
and I have been phenomenally success
full in advising dealers 'sWhat and When
to Buy and Sell" But whenever I can
/ will hurt the big SPECTATORS who
manipulate the markets. They are an
abomination because they prevent sup
ply and demand from governing trade.
By misreprese enting the facts these
manipulators up to this date (Septenl-
Der 2I) have manipulated markets
downward far below the real value of
grain
Every one should know that the oats
crop was not SO large as they represent.
They cheat by making a big crop per
centage in a small producing state over
balance small percentage crop in a
| big producing state.
The Agricultural Department is help
ing these big SPECTATORS by adopting
this false method of estimating crop
productions. A great boom crop of corn
is reported when it is well known that
in some of the largest corn producing
states one-fourth of the corn acreage
will not produce this year any corn that
can be marketed.
