How the Weather Bureau Eoreeasts

Washington, d. C.-Many people
have an idea that there is something
mysterious and occult about the work
of the Weather Bureau in forecastinG
the coming of storms, frosts and
floods Not a few must think that ths
observers must necessarily get their
data by reading the planets, the stars
and the moon. AS a matter of fact
the forecaster of the bureau foretells
the coming of disturbances in a busi-
ness-like way, very similar to that
in which a man who has ordered a
shipment of goods would estimate the
date of its arrival
Suppose a business man had ordered
a carload of pineapples from the
Hawaiian Islands. He would know
the average time it would take the
steamer to make the trip to the Paci-
tic port, the average time for unload
ing and loading into refrigerator cars.
and the average number of days to be
allowed these cars for their trip
across the continent to New York
His estimate, however, would be sub
ject to error because the steamship
might be delayed by fog, or the cars
might meet with an accident.
Storms, like pineapples, as a rule do
not originate in the United States.
They come to us, some from thePhilip-
pines, Japan, Siberia, Alaska, Canada
or the Gulf of Mexico. In fact, the
arrival of some storms can be fore
told Ten days in advance
The forecasters watch for the
region of low barometer which is the
storm center around which the winds
blow. This whirl or eddy moves
bodily forward with the general east
ward drift of about 600 miles a day
in our attitudes As the lines of equal
pressure isObarsD around the low
center crowd closer together, the
winds attending the storm increase
in force. The forecaster determines
the direction of movement of the
storm and its velocity
When weather disturbances are re-
ported, the forecasters know from ex-
perience how long it takes them to
reach the Atlantic coast For example.
If storm coming from Siberia drifts
eastward around the north pole and
roappears in Alaska, il should appear
in Washington and Oregon in abou
two days should get TO the Great
Lakes in six days and to the Atlantic
coast in seven or eight days,
Unexpected conditions may delay
storms or divert them from the
straight track just as refrigerator
car may be thrown on its schedule
or be shipped by accident on wrong
road
To keep tab on cold waves that
come into the United States from
Canada and Alaska, the weather bur-
eau studies the Canadian weather re-
ports England sends reports from
Iceland, the British Isles and Contin.
entail Europe, and daily reports come
from 81. Petersburg on the conditions
in Russia and Siberia.
The same husinesslike system used
in tracing the track Of storm is
applied in determining the arrival Of
trOsts.
This plan is followed all the way
down the river. and al each point fun
allowance is made for the effects OF
water from tributaries. and from addi-
tional and local rainfall As a result
OF these observations in the recent

drunk at the time, are sold indis-
criminately to all parties applying.
The statistics of every state show a
greater amount of crime and misery
attributable to the use of ardent
spirits obtained at these retail liquor
saloons than to any other source. "
The mem bers of the supreme court
are not narrow minded cranks and
fanatics and their deliberately eX-
pressed opinion should carry much
weight. They hold that the saloon
is a source of crime and misery or,
in other words, is an institution
which makes it easy for people to do
wrong. Any observing person knows
that this is true. The saloon makes
it easy for youth to form the drink
ing habit, which is sure to impair
his usefulness and likely to ruin his
career. The saloon makes it easy for
man to forget his obligations to his
family and to neglect and abuse
them. The saloon makes it easy for
a man to squander his wages, which
he needs for other purposes, and
thereby furnishes the incentive for
him to steal or rob. The saloon
makes it easy for a man to form evil
associations and to forget his self
respect in dissipation. The saloon
makes it easy for a man to lose con-
troll of his faculties, in which con-
dition he is ready to commit murder
or any other crime.
In order to make it as easy as pos
sible for people to do right and as
hard as possible for them to do
wrong, it is clearly incumbent upon
the government to prohibit any bust
ness which makes it easy for them
to do wrong. But in this state, and
in the United States, the people are
the government and it therefore de-
wolves on the to abolish the sa-
loon. They have the power and, in
this commonwealth, they will have
the opportunity to do it at the cleo
ton next November.

Advocates of the Seven Sisters"
al once took the matter up with State
Auditor Clausen, who referred it to
the Bureau of Inspection, which de-
MED that any such instructions had
been issued to the examiners.
This bluff on the part of Mr.. Leg
norm is on par with the reprehen-
sible methods used by the Stop
Look-Listen league to brighten vot-
ers from signing the initiative petit
tons.
The league has flooded the state
with advertisements and circulars
asserting that it will cost at least
$4,000 to initiate each measure, in
addition to the state appropriation of
100000, or in other words that the
cost of getting a measure on the bal
lot and paying for the printing of an
argument in its favor to be sent by
the state to each voter will cost $64,-
600. The absurdity of this assertion
is demonstrated by the fact that it
will not cost to exceed $500 to get
all of the Seven Sisters" measures
on the ballot and, according to re-
liable estimates, not over $1400 to
print the arguments in favor of each
Of the seven. Up to June LIST, just
$500 had been used for printing and
distributing the petitions for, and
copies of the Seven Sisters" The
total cost, outside of the state appro-
priation, of initiating these seven
measures will not exceed $4,000, or
about $400 for each one instead of
$64, 200, as claimed by the Stop
Look--Listen league.
There is a big difference between
$500 and $64, 900, but this is about
as near the truth as most of the
claims put forth by the league. 1t
harps upon the stamp bill of $40, 900
or $4,000, which the state will have
to pay to send out copies of the bills
and arguments to the people, but
fails to mention that most of this ex-
pense will be incurred, even if every
one of the proposed initiative meas
ures should fail to secure enough pc
titioners to place it on the ballot.
| This is true, because the legislature
| has referred the teachers retirement
fund and the Quincy valley irriga-
ton measures to a vote of the people
and copies of these bills with argu-
ments for and against them will have
to be mailed to each voter. This in
itial mailing cost will be increased
but slightly by the addition to the
pamphlet of a few more bills and ar
guments.
