f1HE much-abused weather man
talked few days ago about some
Of the things that are benefited
by cold and snow and how the wealth
er bureau tells people to prepare for
coming cold wave or great fall of
snow. He also told about some other
things.
Yes" said Prof. Frankenneld, one of
the forecasters, we have some severe
weather In these United States. The
coldest parts, leaving out Alaska, of
course. are the northern part of New
England, North Dakota and Minnesota,
where the thermometers spirits some-
times fall as low as 40 degrees below
zero. and they have gone as far as So
degrees below zero" That temperature
is too cold for comfort, although men
can live in 1t and breathe it if suf-
ficiently well bundled in warm cloth
ing. The cold and the snow are at
times inconvenient. bat they are by
no means an unmixed evil.
umbermen look anxiously for heavy
snowfalls in the winter, to be followed
by heavy rains and sudden thaws in
the spring, for the SHOWS make easy
shedding to get the logs out of the
woods during the cold weather. and
the spring rains and thaws flood the
rivers which float them to their desti-
nation.
The wheat growers want steady cold,
which does no harm to the winter
crop, but they dread the changeable
weather, with alternate thaws and
frosts, which destroys the crop. Snow
is welcome, for, like a blanket, 1t pro-
tects the entire crop against the ex-
treme cold and sudden changes
All the early fruits and vegetables
for the northern cities are taken from
the south in refrigerator cars, each of
which requires for the run about two
tons of ice to preserve Its contents; but
the colder the weather Is the less ice
will be required.
The weather man is blamed for many
things. but only comic papers and writ
ers of jokes hold him responsible for
climatic conditions, and no one seri-
ously believes that he can change the
weather to suit himself or any one
else: and If he could. most folk would
be quite as unsatisfed as they are with
the present arrangement ALL he can
do is to learn ahead of time what
changes to expect in the range Of the

In fact, this is the best way to see
the magnitude Of the industry. I took
two hours on the way. There were
vineyards on both sides of the track
as far as could see. The vines are set
out in regular order, and l could look
earth between them. Each row has its
canal, and in some places the water Is
conducted about the roots of the vines.

swamps. The spring rains flood these
places, and the cattle would be
drowned If not driven. to higher
grounds. but these swamps are SO
large that it takes time to herd the
cattle. and this notice Is required. The
efficiency of work may be estimated
from the fact that since the bureau
has been giving this notice the num-
Der of cattle raised in this section has
been more than doubled.
without cranberries and all summer
long the bureau spares no effort to
assist in preserving that delicate crop
which flourishes in the three sections

southern Wisconsin. The berries are
raised In marshes and are SO delicate

stroys them When the thermometer

berries grow. Flooding the place is
the only means of protection, and as
too many soakings kill the bushes. to
say nothing of the expense and labor
of doing this, the bureau, from April
to October, sends notices to these To-
calities whenever sudden fall of

result that 1t saves the supply of

portant problems of the day. In the dry
seasons the great danger is from fire.
During the past summer this bureau re-
ported to the forestry service forecasts
Of all probable weather changes, and par
ticularly all changes In the force and
direction Of the wind. thus enabling the
chief forecaster to place his lookouts
and fire fighters to the best advantage.
Through the naval radio service 1t sends
out every morning a bulletin to all
mariners along the coast Of the Atlantic
and the gulf, giving a forecast of the
weather and a statement of the weather
conditions along the coast, thus enabling
each skipper to know what to expect.
In return, vessels at sea, If equipped
with a sufficiently strong wireless outfit.
report to the bureau any climatic dis
turbance or other useful information
which it could not have had before the
days of photography.
In the past summer some interesting
experiments were made to obtain data on
the movements Of the upper air strata,
but with rather indeterminate results.
The bureau, however, has established a
new station near Omaha to conduct these
observations by means of kites and bal
looms, and other stations will follow II
this is successful. 1t Is hoped In this
way, by acquiring proper data, to learn
more Of the development and movements
