Most Notable and Beneficial Weather
Feature During Last Ten Days Of
May Will Be Warm and Stimulating
to Crops with Sufficient Moisture

Washington, May 21.--Last bulletin
gave forecasts of disturbance to cross
the continent 22 to 81, warm wave 2I to
Is, cool wave "a to 28. This was ex-
pected to bring period of dangerous
storms, but of course these storms will
reach only few localities and where
they will be most severe is not known.
The disturbance will be preceded by
very cool weather, while in front of its
temperatures will range high. Rains
are probable as the cool wave passes
away and also as the following cool
wave comes in. The high and the low
will be quite EXTENSIVE, the two cover
ing a very large part of the continent.
Therefore while thes disturbances will
reach nearly all localities the severe
parts of them will reach only a few
places.
The last disturbance Of May will reach
the Pacific coast about ~, cross north
Pacific slope by close Of %. great cen
trail valleys 20 to 81, eastern sections

slope about p, great central valleys 20,
eastern sections 81 Cool wave will
cross Pacific slope about 80, great cen
trail valleys June I, eastern sections
June 8.
This disturbance will cause consid
cradle fall in temperatures from the
highest point reached in the previous
disturbance to the lowest reached in
this, but no very low temperatures are
expected The weather features will
continue to be more than usually in
tense, but not much rain may be ex-
pected about the lakes and on the At
lantic coast Not much rain in the vi
cinity of Washington.
The most notable and beneficial
weather feature during the last ten days
of May will be the warm weather, fav-
orable to growing crops where sufficient
rains have fallen.
Bulletin of May 28 will give general
forecasts of crop weather for June. The
temperatures of that month will average
higher than usual but it is essential to
know in what parts of the country most
rain wall fall in June and in what parts
of the month the principal rains will
come. | could not get all these details
ready for this bulletin and concluded to
postpone the announcements for next
bulletin. June, July and August crop
weather is all important to the 1910
crops
THE COMET.
The human race has inherited fear
of comets because, in some remote age
of our ancestors these wandering stars
probably did great damage, The comet
scare is now past and if there ever was
any danger it is yet to come. I have all
the time held that poisonous gases might
flow into the earths orbit and finally
reach the earth along that orbit. It
will be of interest to watch for strange
diseases among animals and merNbers of

The District Board of the Stem

William Elliott, of Henderson,
general manager, was elected
chairman; James n. Banks,
Henderson. secretary.
The chairman stated the OBJ
iect of the meeting was to con-
slider the manner and method of
pooling the 1910 crop of tobac-
co. He said the District Com
mittee had. two weeks ago, rec
commended that hereafter pool
ling should be taken or five
years. but since that time certain
happenings in various counties
Of the district prompted the
committee to meet and again
consider the matter. The chair
then called on the several men,
bers of the committee present
to express their views.
After full, a free and frank
Repression from the four COM
mitteemen present it was evil
dent that each one. as person
al preference, favored the five
year plan pooling, but it was
equally obvious that all four
doubted-in the light of events
of the past two weeks, the wis
dom and good policy of pressing
the five-year plan during this
current, year of 1910.
Mr.. Baker, of Webster coun-
ty. said a big majority Of his
constituents wanted the five
year rlan, and yet he now be-
heved more members there could
be signed up on the one-year
plan. He. however, recognized
the fact that a uniform rule for
the pooling must apply to all
the counties and he would there
fore offer no factions opposition
TO the wishes of majority of
the committee. And then on
motion made, seconded and car
ried. the following resolutions
were adopted.
Resolved, That whereas tins
committee some two weeks since

but now the committee, in light
of subsequent events. are con-
WINGED that an attempt to pool
