WEATHER FORECAST

| copyrighted, 1914, by w. I. Foster J
Washington. March 14.-Last bulle
tin gave forecasts of disturbance to
cross continent March 10 to 90, warm
wave Is to %, cool wave II to %.
This will be a dangerous storm from
the Pacific to the Atlantic and all are
again urged to use the utmost care
and caution. Many lives will probably
| be lost in that storm and much prop
erty destroyed. We cannot now close
ly locate the path of that storm, but
the time is not far away when we can
locate such dangers.
In the bulletin of February Z we
gave warning of a dangerous storm
for about March 1. That was re;
markably good forecast. 1t is to be
regretted that people get used to dan
gerous storms and then get caught in
them. You will never regret follow
ing our forecasts of dangerous storms
from this to May o. Arrange all OF
your affirs to fit in with these fore
casts and you will later be thankful
that you did
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about March %, cross Pacific
slopep by close of 26, great central
valleys 81 to 20, eastern sections 30.
Cool wave will cross Pacific Slope
oh 10
80, eastern sections April 1.
This will be much like the previous
storm and very dangerous. You can
well afford to stand guard for two
weeks or more from March II to
April 3 The most dangerous dates
will be near March 10, "a and 20.
Watch the locations of the lows or
storm centers and particularly the
south east portions OF them; the des-
tructive storms usually occur therein,
We are OF opinion the storm paths
will lie eastward along or not far from
latitude 80 and that the greatest dang
er will be along that line in the great
central valleys. Temperatures will
range high as the storm approaches.
Precipitation WILL in a general way,
average light with this storm but
heavy downppours are expected over
a few small localities. Most gen.
eral rainfall will be about the Mexican
gulf and in the south Atlantic Sec
tons. Northern pparts of South
America will get full average rains
After the cold spell that will cross
continent March Is to % good crop
weather is expected and good time for
planting and sowing south of 49, Cul- |
tivation of the soil this coming crop |
season should be with the expectation |
of less than normal rainfall. Where |
the soil was frozen wet last December |
the crops will start under favorable |
circumstances Small grain should be |
drilled deeply and corn planted in the
bottom OF the furrow. Low ground |
will bring the best crops. or course

but they should be followed generally.
This will be a prosperous year; all
products will bring good prize s.
Whatever the planter and farmer can
produce will bring good returns. Our
national finances will encourage all
kinds of business and the best ener-
gies of every individual should be put
forward. Mexico has been stript bare
of all products and must be replenish-
ed. The chaos down there can not
continue. II general peace is restored
or If war with Mexico results, in
either case the 20000,O0O of people
down there must draw heavily on our
resources and that will strengthen de-
mand and prices for our products.
The high cost of living will not stop
till the people discontinue their ex-
In general way the
masses have double the comforts of +,
fifty years ago and the demands on
producers are double. How can prices
go down while the demands are in
creasing? The standards of prices
and OF living will not materially
change.
