Washington, Oct. 22.-Last bulletin
gave forecast of disturbance to cross the
continent "a to a9, warm wave 70 to AZ,
cool wave 70 to 30. This disturbance
will bring a great change in weather.
conditions. Temperatures will pass
| from summer to winter conditions with
out hating at the usual fall or Indian
summer weather. A cold wave will be
due in the valleys of Red River of the
North, upper Mississippi and Missouri
valleys not far from October ~ and will
gradually spread over eastern and south
western sections That cold wave will
give foretaste of coming winter After
moderate warm wave more severe
cold wave will reach meridian 90 about
October 30. Bad weather October 20
to end of month.
The next disturbance will reach the
| Pacific coast about 60 cross the Pacific
| slope by close of ~, great central val
leys 20 to 80, eastern sections 81. Warm
wave will cross Pacific slope about 10,
great central valleys 28, eastern sections
so. Cool wave will cross Pacific slope
about 80, great central valleys about
November I, eastern sections s.
Unusual, remarkable, radical condi-
tions of weather will prevail from Oe-
tober 20 to November 8. The forces
/ will be so complicated and SO radical,
some Of them pulling one way and
some the opposite, that can not now
determine the results. | advise all to
lprepare for very bad November weather
during those two weeks, weather in
which winter storms will prevail
One of these storms waves will reach
1.-THE Pacific slope about November j.
cross Pacific slope by close of 2, great
central valleys s TO s, eastern sections
I6 Warm wave will cross Pacific slope
about November |, great central valleys
s. eastern sections S. Cool wave will
cross Pacific slope about 4, great central
valleys 6, eastern sections g.
Radical from start to finish is the
best description can give of this
storm wave. The next following storm
wave will be on the Pacific slope about
November 4 and will be of the radical
type mentioned in reference to all the
storm waves from October 26 to No
venber s.
The results of ali this stormy weather
will be had on all crops that are ex-
posed Cotton and corn will probably
suffer most Much top cotton will be
killed by ffosts and that which is still
in the fields will be damaged BY storms
| and rains. Bad on corn because not
much of it will have been gathered
Government report on corn crop for
ten principal corn producing states
makes almost exactly the ten year aver
age, and same as the amount produced
il 1900. The bumper crop is manufac-
tuted by making SO per cent in North
Carolina ovefba1anee 6a per cent in
! Kansas, and 81 per cent in Louisiana
offset " in Wisconsin. That looks very
much Hike juggling with figures. The
seven big corn producing states show
for this year very little above the
ten year average.
But as the weather, supply and de-
Inland, are not now controlling prices,
fsdecline TO give further advice. Il is
suggested that certain great interests
that have controlled financial affairs for
forty years have determined to lower
prices Of agricultural products rather
than raise the wages Of labor These
bulletins can not deal with that subject
The farmers and corporations must
fight If out. stand by the assertion
| that 1910 crops are not larger than 1900
