WEATHER FORECAST

Copyrighted. 1914. by w. T. Foster)
Washington. Feb. 14.-Last bulletin
gave forecasts of disturbance to cross
continent February 20 to "a, warm
wave 10 to 20, cool wave 20 to rs.
Unusually cold weather is expected
east Of the Rockies from February IA
to "a, and more than usual rain or
snow from February IA to 20. The
precipitation, however. will not be
great, particularly in the central Mid
die West. A, cold wave is expected
not far from February IA.
March temperatures will run very
much like those of February, warm
first and last part Of the month and
a cold spell in the middle Of the
month. The precipitation, however,
will not be similar. Planetary posi-
tions, particularly those of the moon,
will have changed materially. the rain
fall OF March will widely differ from
that of the preceding five months and
the amount Of moisture on this CONT
nent will be very considerably less.
This condition OF moisture will not
be detrimental to crops. unless 1t
should be followed in April and May
by dry weather. Early crops In
Southern States will have from fair
to good crop weather. In Northern
sections the temperatures will run to
extremes, causing some freezing and
thawing that will not be good for win
ter grain, and some Southern sections
may get frosts not far from March II.
Severe storms are expected In
March, and We advise to be on the
outlook about March /. Z, "a and 20.
We give particular warning for within
few days OF March "a; our danger
signals hang out for that period.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about February %, cross Pacific
slope by close Of "a, great central val
legs rs to q, Eastern sections %
Warm wave will cross Pacific slope
about February 20. great central val
leys 25. Eastern sections "a. Coo
