Washington, d. c., Jluy 12.-Last
bulletin gave forecasts Of disturb
ances to cross continent July Is to 10
to 90; warm waves IA to IS and IS
to %; cool waves II to 81 and 81 to
25. Remarkable for sudden and great
changes in temperatures. These will
be OF greater than usual force and
the last one will be severe on the
north Atlantic and will inaugurate the
great storm period due for last half
of July. Our storm and danger sig
nails for all parts of the continent are
displayed for July 10 to 81,
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about July %, cross Pacific slope
by close of "a, great central valleys 20
to 27, eastern sections %. Warm wave
will cross Pacific slope about July %,
great central valleys 25, eastern Sec
tons 81. Cool wave will cross Pa
ciic slope about July 26, great CEN
trail valleys 2S, eastern sections 30
This will be severe storm all the
way across continent and in eastern
states: on north Atlantic it will be a
furious storm following July q, We
continue to advise great care and a
careful observation of the indications
that always precede severe storms.
One of the surest signs of the APP
proach of dangerous storms is a dark
blue sky. Great storms draw the
moisture from the atmosphere, leav,
ling it to appear as it does when
viewed from all Ugh mountain.
A hurricane will probably organize
east OF the Windward islands on July
l2l and by % will probably be in the
Caribbean; by 2S it will lbe in the Gull
OF Mexico These tropical storms
usually move northeastward off ouI
Atlantic coasts.
About first of September we will
inaugurate an improvement in our
forecasts, giving them more in detail
and localizing them. Our territory il
so large that we have been compelled
ito put out forecasts somewhat of
general character. We are now abl'
to announce great improvements TO-
the coming fall and winter,
We are of opinion that, in large
parts of the winter wheat sections, thu
July rains will put the soil in gooC
condition for sowing winter wheat
Probabilities are that September vii
be a very warm month, October warm
err than usual, November colder thai
usual and December warmer thai
! usual. A cold stormy November i
bad for winter wheat and 1t is adys
able to SOW early in the northern
states in order that the fall growt
NAV furnish a protection to the root
: from winds, freezing and thawing Il
s November.
I Winter wheat that gets through NJ
} vember without serious damage wi
probably be in good condition neN
s spring. A heavy fall growth of tn
: wheat in September and October
; which it will get if you SOW early
s will be a great protection in Noven
{ Der. This will apply to northwe'
! Texas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, ke
; lucky, Virginia and western Marylar
5 but not to other southern states.
{ The greatest wheat land on ear
needs the completion Of our foreca
system. We have reference to Il
s eastern slope, called the plains stat
s and provinces. When our system
! completed it will be known VIII
; years those plains sections will pr
: duce wheat and that will add il
s mensely to the production of tn
I cereal. We are pushing the work
3 ward completion as rapidly as pc
s sible.
8 Our general calculations for 10
Z crop weather will be completed by t
: first of October Our progress is slC
but sure and our forecasts are sure
improving all the time.
