Washington, D. c., Jan. 17.-Last
bulletin gave forecast OF disturbance
to cross continent Jan. 10 to %, warm
wave Jan. IL to %, cool wave Jan. 81
to 25. This will bring an unusual
variety of weather, great extremes
Of temperatures, severe storms, rains
and SHOWS north, warm and cold
wave south, thaws followed by
freezes.
Venus, Mars and Neptune will be in
combination against the earth. Mars,
the ancient God of war, was the prin-
cipal cause of the destructive storms
in eastern sections first few days of
January. Neptune will be the prin-
cipal of the storms from Jan. II
to "a. All orthodox scientists admit
that Neptune, the most distant planet
of the solar system, pulls the other
planets out Of their orbits, but they
deny that any planet can materially
affect the earth's atmosphere. The
orthodox scientists of Gallileo's time
declared that the earth was the GEN.
ter of the universe and that it does
not move. Watch the effects of Nep-
tune on our weather, Jan. II to a.,
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about Jan. "a, cross Pacific slope
by close of Jan. IS, gveat central val
leys Jan. 20 to Is, eastern sections
Jan. 20. Warm wav will cross Pacific
slope about Jan. "a, great central val
leys Jan. 20, eastern sections Jan. %.
Cool wave will cross Pacific slope
about Jan. 81, great central valleys
Jan. 20, eastern sections Jan. 81.
Cold weather will precede this dis
turbance but the cool wave following

lures. Force of the storms will be a

little above the normal and the gen.
eral trend of temperatures will be up
ward until we have gone into Febru-
airy.
The seasonal rains of South Ameri-
ca have been in accord with the. fore
casts of these bulletins. For February
we are expecting the rains to be less
in Brazil and other sections south of
the Amazon and greater in all the
sections in Vicinities of the Gulf Of
Mexico.
Our general forecasts for December
rains for our hemisphere were cor
rect except for our northwestern coasts
where the rains concentrated in north
ern California instead of extending
north into British Columbia. A re-
markable success was the forecast of
heavy rains in our southwestern
states. Our November dry weather
for vicinity of Omaha was a good fore
cast.
We are expecting above normal
rainfalls in our southwestern states
during February. This is an unusual
forecast because of the great floods in
that section last December.
America Is in splendid condition for
a revival Of business and better times
but the unsettled conditions in Euro
pean finances may retard our pro-
gross. There is no good cause for a
general depression in this country and
he great financial m~anipulators must
be responsible for any bad results in
American financial affairs.
There Is no such thing as natural
fluctuations in business affairs; these
are all the results of manipulations.
IL prices Of grain and cotton go lower
spectators must bear the blame.

Farmers got alarmed in December and
showed an unusual amount of corn in
to the markets but they were shrewd
enough to hold their best corn and get
rid of a lot of very bad corn that will
be doctored in the elevators. The price
of sulphur should go up a s. much Of
that mineral is used in smoking bad
corn and making it marketable. Some
elevators buy bad corn and sell good
corn later. They doctor it. .

Now That It's Over

Now that the elections over and the country is
once more safely saved, perhaps just one backward
glance will be permissible
1t campaign with very little heat, very little
passion, and it left few bruised toes. One man DOM
mated it; and he, not because he partisan but
because, in great office, at trying time, he put
his ideals HIGH attended calmly to duty and refused
to swashbuckle.
You may say this was exceptional that the nation
was war-sobered; that otherwise there would have
been regular, old-fashioned monkey and parrot
kind of time with partsans yelling each other black
In the face.
Perhaps. Even probably-for, beneath the We
neer there's lot of the Tartar in most of u.s.
Still it is something to have had the benefit of one
good example. The standard will help here
after to steady u.s.
After all, parties are means to ends; honesty, fl
deity, efficiency in office important to the
average citizen than party labels; and we're mighty
lucky to have the Wilson kind Of government,
whether voted his ticket or not.
Now to business; and may she hum!
