quence, be prolonged. On and touch
the goth, temperature will probably
make a sudden and decided rise, as
the 4Ioon passes over the equator on
that day. Rains will turn to heavy
sleet in many localities, as we pass
into December. By the end of No.
vember every careful student of
these forecasts will know what to
count on, in the way of storm and
weather, far into the month of De-
cember. The Mars influence will
have fastened upon the various ex-
tremes of this country, and of the
globe, the character of the weather
that will prevail to the end of the
Mars period. 1t will vary to ex-
tremes, but continue as it begins at
the entrance of the Mars period, so
that some extremes will have moder-
ated to mild weather, while others
may look for hard and long-contin-
ued winter storms and weather.
Mars segregates the worlds weather
into good and bad, prolonging to
each extreme the kind he begins
with.

QUAIL SEASON OPENS SOON.
Hunters May Get the Useful Bird AZ
ter November list.

With the quail season opening
within short time, it is we'll that the
hunters should find out about the
laws governing the shooting of game
birds.
The Iowa game law limits the num-
Der Of quail killed by man in one
day to fifteen and no one is allowed
to have in his possession at one time
more than twenty-five. In Missouri
the limit on quail to be killed in one
ter is allowed to have only fifteen in
solutely prohibits the shipping of
quail from the state for any purpose.
The resident hunter may obtain
a license for 81 in Iowa, while the
nonresident is obliged to pay $10.50.
In Missouri a resident license costs
SIS and a nonresident license costs
SIS.
The open season in Iowa for quail,
ruffed grouse or pheasant and wild
turkey is from November to Deem
Der Is. Squirrel, gray, timber or fox,
may be hunted from September 1 to
January 1, and prairie chicken, rail,
coon or gallinule can be shot between

There is no open season for deer, elk,
English, Monaghan, Chinese or ring

hunted after October l., 1917.
The, open season for quail in Mis-
and for squirrel, gray, black or fox,
the season is on from June 1 to Jan

18th. This warning applies with
special emphasis to the great lakes,
and north Atlantic coast regions. If
storms and weather should have TAX
en- on the form of early winter, un-
der the Mars influence, the crisis of
this period will bring severe storms,
followed by freezing.
The second reactionary storm per-
iod is central on the 18th, 18th and
18th. The Moon reaches the celes-
tial equator on the 18th, coming
northward from it's south declination
A sudden and very marked change
to warmer, with falling barometer,
clOudiness, rain, wind and thunder
storms will center about the 10th
before that date in western, and at
ter that date in eastern sections. A
change to rising and much cooler
weather will bring up the rear of
these storms from the west and
north, spreading progressively east
ward and southwark over most
parts of the country by the 10Th to
goth.
The second regular storm period
is central on the 22nd, involving the
18th to 26th.
The Moon will be in opposition to
IRENE north declination and in apo
gee on the 23rd. The Mars disturb
ance is at maximum, and Mercury
disturbance blends with the regular
Vulcan period. BY the Goth to 21st,
we'll defined storm conditions will de-
velop in western sections-the bar
ometer will be falling, with warmer,
south winds. Cloudiness will quick
ly ensue, and storms of growing ex-
tent and intensity will take up their
march from west to east. While
these things are brewing in the west,
warmer, fair weather will prevail in
central to eastern parts, but falling
barometer, cloudiness and storms of
autumnal rain and wind will adj
vance eastward, from day to day,
traversing the whole country from
about Sunday, the 21st, to Thursday,
the 25th. But before the storms of
rain and falling barometer reach the
eastern states, the barometer will be
rising in the west, rains will have
turned to sleet and snow, and some
thing approximating November
blizzard, will be following on the
western tangents of hestorm centers.
Don't forget that Mercury is the
sleet god, and look for heavy, if not
destructive sleet at this, or other per-
iods within the present Mercury per-
iOd. The final sequel to this period
will be blighting northwesterly gales
and a wide wicked cold wave for No
vember. Watch on the land, and be-
ware on the lakes, the high seas, and
the coasts.
The third reactionary storm per-
Tod is central on the 9th, 2Sth and
goth. This period is at the culmina-
ton of the Mercury disturbance, the
Moon is at last quarter on the 18th,
and on the celestial equator on the.
Goth. The Mercury influence will
continue into the opening days Of
December, and cloudy, threatening

NOVEMBER WEATHER..
Hicks Says the Month Will Come in
With Stormy Weather.

The regular storm period central
on October 3Oth, will be in progress
as we enter November. Falling bar
ometer, growing cloudiness and
storms of wind and rain will be pass
ing the central valleys about the LIST
to Bird. The high temperature, with
general rain, and possibly electrical
storms, will reach a elimination on
and next to the 3rd, the date of the
Moons passage over the celestial
equator. Meantime, change to rising
barometer, cold westerly gales, and
autumnal snow squalls will be sweep
ing eastward from the northwest.
Whatever turn Mars influence may
give to storm and weather conditions
will be Enthusiastically manifest by
this time, as the center of the Mars
period falls on the 18th. We believe
that a touch of early winter will be
felt the first week in November, and
that it will prove the wise thing to
prepare for heavy frosts and hurtful
freezing Immediately behind the
storm centers as they pass progress
lively of to the eastward.
The first reactionary storm period
is central ON and touching the 4th
and 9Th. Under the strain of the
Mars influence, SO near it's center,
and the conjunction of the Moon
with the Earth and Sun on the 7th,
there need be no little surprise if
stormy and disagreeable weather
continues over the period of the new
Moon, into the storm period immed-
lately following. In that event. low
barometer, warm weather, with No
vember rains, will fill the interim be-
tween the reactionary and regular
storm periods.
The first regular storm period is
central on the 10th, including the
9Th to the 18th.
The storm diagram shows that the
center of the Mars period falls with
in this Vulcan period, being on Fri
day, the 18th. The Moon is in peri
gee on the 8th, near its conjunction
with the Earth and Sun, and at it's
greatest declination south on the 9th.
The planet Mars is at quadrature
with Sun and Earth on the 9Th, and
the Moon is at first quarter on the
18th. Combining all these disturb
ing factors, within the compass of
this regular storm period, it is per-
fectly reasonable to anticipate some
dangerous atmospheric perturba-
lions. The faithful barometer will
be the surest monitor of violence,
should such appear at this time. It
will give general warning from one
to three days before storms and high
gales reach their elimination. The
danger centers will lie on and about
the great lakes. Note the barometric
and other Indications OF brewing
storms to the westward, at beginning
