Washington, ID. c., Sept. 27.-Last
bulletin gave forecast of Disturbances
to cross continent September 26 to 30
and October to 6, warm waves Sep
TENDER 25 to 20 and October / to 5,
cool waves September 20 to October
and October 4 to 8. These disturb
ances, covering about ten days, will
bring higher temperatures than usual
and about normal precipitation. Storm
4 forces will be greater than usual Sep
TENDER 81 to October 5, with probable
ity of gulf storm first days of October.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about October 8, cross Pacific
slope by close of 8, great central val
leys October 10 to IL, eastern sections
10; warm wave will cross Pacific slope
about October 8, great central valleys
10. eastern sections IL. Cool wave will
cross Pacific slope about October II.
great central valleys 10, eastern sec
lions Is.
This disturbance will be a tame
stor muntil 1t reaches the eastern Sec
ton and then it will develop a radical
intensity and rough weather may be
expected. Temperatures of the five
days centering on date the warm wave
reaches your section, will average
about or little below normal and pre-
cipitation will, in general, be about
normal.
The principal rains of October are
expected to concentrate on the Pacific
slope and there are some indications
of sudden downpours that will cause
dangerous floods. We cannot definite
ly locate these heavy rains. Their TO-
cation will depend on thepaths Of tive
low or storm centers, but wherever
freshets or sudden floods sometimes
do damage on the Pacific coast and
Pacific slope, we advise to be on the
alert and be prepared for them. They
will strike the Washington or Oregon
| coasts.
Some heavy rains in October are al
so expected along the gulf coast and
generally where the recent drouth was
most severe. The points of evapora-
tion for October seem to be located in
the Caribbean sea, Gulf of Mexico and
Boring sea. The Pacific slope will get
its moisture from the latter and east
fthe Rockies from the former.
Between the Gulf of Mexico and Ber-
ing sea the evaporation will be great
and places that do not get the heavy
rains will lose what moisture they
have. In the northeastern sections not
much rain is expected in October.
The storms of 1914 will be fully as
severe and dangerous as were those
, OF 1919. One Of the greatest storm pc
RODS of recent times will include parts
of April and May. 1914. and it seems
to include the Gulf coast and great
central valleys. A great electrical
storm will appear within twenty-four
hours of May 4.
II is a matter Of regret that We can
not more definitely locate these awful
storms and give more of the details.
The only reason why we cannot do
this is the great expense and labor
necessary to work out the problems
We surely know all the causes and
when scientists more generally direct
their investigations to the planetary
causes, instead Of trying to dig into
the interior of the sun in hope of find
ing something there that will explain
1t all, then we may know in advance,
not only the time and force OF these
destructive storms, but their locations.
We have mentioned the dangerous
storms that are sure to come in April
and May in order to give them timely
warning and will give all the informa.
ton about them that is possible. We
are expanding all the money and the
results will be given to the public
through the 200 newspapers that are
publishing and aiding in this work.
We have been advising the friends
of our work that the Chicago market
values of December corn and wheat
were too close together and therefore
1t would pay to buy December wheat
and sell December corn. The newspa-
pers now say that much wheat is being
fed on account of the relative cheap
ness of wheat and the high price of
corn. We saw that point sometime
ago and those who bought wheat and
sold corn now have pond nrofitc
