Cool wave will cross Pacific slope

This disturbance will continue the
high temperatures and the stormy
weather with more than usual rain.
Most of the rainfall is expected from
Cairo to st. Paul, from st. Louis to
lOmaha in the Ohio valleys and the
great lakes west of Buffalo. All the
weather features of this disturbance
will be of greater than usual inten-
sity an dthc forces will be at their
greatest from Nov. ) to 9. The cool
wave of this disturbance will end
the warm period and from Nov. to
10 fresls will probably kill consid-
cradle part of growing cotton. The
cool wave expected to be near me-
ridian 90 Nov. Is will probably put
an end to much of the remaining top
cotton growth.

We are living IN an age noted for
! fhc prOgressiyes ii is producing. In
Ial lines our race is intensively ac-
Tive: 50 much is this The ease that
history gives no account of anything
! in the past that will compare with
it, The white race has broken away
from The fetters that bound it dur
ing the dark ages and the wonder
lful advances Of the last twenty
years Indicate that we are making
lup for lost time.
The experiments with radium and
other radioactive minerals is turn
ling old theories Of the orthodox
scientists upside down and inside
out. In astronomy the great tele-
scopes are destroying old astronomi-
cal theories while the spectrum
analysis and the microscope are up
setting old beliefs about matter and
physics.
May | suggest that meteorology is
near great epoch and that its pro-
gressives may not long remain in
the rear ranks. The writer fully be-
i lieyes that our race has more of
real benefit to hope for from me-
tteorolegy than from any or all other
/ divisions of the human activities.
Meteorology is not now, in the uni
versities, classed as science. | be-
lieve that it will soon absorb astro-
physics and become the corner stone
of that structure that embraces all
the sciences.
