of II. Storm forces will not be great

These weather conditions will be
of great Importance to all the people
of this continent, but some will be
disappointed 10 the forecast We are
giving the conditions that will prevail
on three-fourths Of the continent The
moisture will come from north Of
South America and southeast Of our
Atlantic coast. We cannot go into
more details in this bulletin, but the
general results are almost certain.
Winter grain in Northeastern sec
tons will be benefited by the SHOWS;
winter grain and truck gardening will
be damaged in Southern States; not
good crop weather in Northwestern
sections Immediately cas-. of Rockies,
being too dry and not sufficient snow;
no important results expected for Pa

This will bring highest tempera-
lures of first half Of January and as
the storm approaches from the Yves.
not much precipitation expected, but
after 1t has gone past your locality
heavy rains, SHOWS or drouths may
be expected as described for each sec
ton for the preceding storm. storm
forces rather quiet, cold wave no; Sc
we're.
From about January % to February
20 the Southern states will be def
Gent in precipitation and that will
give winter gardeners their oppor
tunity. Too much rain December ~
to January 20. deficient rain January
% to February 20, with floods Feb
ruary 20 to March %, gives the Gull
States a hard problem to solve and
they should arrange their winter
truck gardening to suit that uncommon
condition. Don't stop to question
these forecasts, but follow them; they
cannot be greater failure than YOU
own guessing has been,
The Gulf States will raise plenty o
grass next summer and their problem
win be to get rid of II; corn belongs
TO the grass family and the shade o
the corn is the best remedy agains
