We apologize for an error In our
forecasts AS to precipitation for De.
oember for some sections. II was not
the fault of the system we use. but
our own individual error, II is human
to err. We will not permit II to occur
often. The cause should have been
seen. as Il was there In plain view.

10 and "a. Our readers can plan their
outdoor work. excursions visits and
trips on water between these dates,
remembering. however. that 1916 will
bring great weather extremes.
We have the United States weather
bureau records Of the average dates
OF the last killing frosts Of The spring
months and the first killing frosts OF
the fall months. In a general way
these are useful because many crops
must be made between killing frosts
Of spring and fall. OF course these
records are no good In the way OF
forecastlng frosts for 1916. but taken
with our forecasts Of frosts-lone
range or short range-they are use
full to all who use our forecasts as q
guide.
II is not practical to give these hun
dreds OF dates In these bulletins. but
we will send free to any subscriber
OF this paper who sends us a stamp
the average dates OF latest and earlies,
killing frosts for any one locality.
