cross the continent Nov. 4 to 8,
warm wave 3 to 7, cool wave + to 10.
The features of this storm wave
that will attract attention and be OF
interest will be the continued high
temperatures, the frequent showers
and threatening rain accompanied
by stormy winds and severe wealth
er. You must not expect these radi-
cal weather events to occur at all
places. These bulletins are read on
all parts of this continent, and to

pairing the soil for next years crops
