FORECASTS ARE

Illinois Farmers Highly Pleased
With Aid Bulletins Had Been
Y at Planting Time.
ENABLED TO FIGURE AHEAD
With Prediction Of Rain Everybody
Got Busy With Planters and Crop
Put in Ground Ready to Be

That the farmers Of the country find
the weekly weather forecasts Of i'm
mense value, especially during the
growing season, is evidenced by a let
ter of appreciation recently received
by the weather bureau Of the United
States department of agriculture from
an Illinois farmer. He was highly
pleased with the aid the forecasts had
been to him and his neighbors in plant
ing their corn. In part he wrote:
Of Untold Benefit.
"These forecasts have been Of un.
told benefit to us this, an unusual
backward spring. and we feel greatly
indebted to you. With this very reli-
able advanced information you are
furnishing us we r able to figure
ahead and keep planting right up. For
instance, this section began blowing
for corn last week. When we re-
ceived your bulletin predicting rain
for. Tuesday or Wednesday of this
week, we got busy with our corn
planters, some v e turning the face
Of their calendars to the wall and
letting one Sunday get away from
them. To make a long story short,
when your predicted rain struck us
Tuesday oon and is still coming down
this, Wednesday, morning, 1t found
V e one-third Of the Illinois corr crop
in the ground ready to be soaked and
terminated. Fad we not been put
wise by your Office am confident that
not one-sixth would have been planted.
While your daily weather reports,
made up by your local observer, help
out some, they cannot be compared
with your weekly forecast sent out
from Washington. I have watched it
quite close since you began this part
Of the service five or six years ago,
and have found It most reliable and
dependable" .@
Weekly Forecast.
In addition to the daily weather fore
casts published in practically all news
papers, the weather bureau issues on
Saturday of each week a forecast for
the six days beginning. the following
Monday. These forecasts are made
for nine separate districts covering
practically tie entire United States,

Rat Day For SOmerville Suggested

Several suggestions have recently
been made that Somerville set apart q
day or two days for q concerted effort
to destroy the rats that are infesting
this city by scores.
Complaints Of citizens from every
part of town are made that.rats are de-
strOyinR grain. gardens. chickens. etc {,
in ever increasing amounts and that
the efforts Of the few who are making
q fight on the rodunts hardly tell In
the supply of the pests. 1t was sug
gested that other towns and cities have
found a concerted effort ION the same
day thruout the area resulted 10 the
destruction of hundreds of the pests
and the reduction in their numbers that
gave much relief from the loss they
bring to the community in grain, fowls,
etc, which they destroy.
The Falcon gives the suggestion here
and believes that good could come from
carrying the suggestion into execution,
The rats are here in large numbers,
we all know, and all citizens working
together for a day to kill them by
poisons and otherwise could but result
in. the killing of alsrse number OF ih'
rodunts.

The new City Marshall elected last
Thursday night, w. S. Latta, asks The
Falcon to call attention this week Of all
automobile drivers to the following..or
dinances: One ordinance fixes speed
limits at 10 miles per hour on the.squsre
and streets one block from the square,
Is miles per hour on all other streets.
Another ordinance forbids the run
ming of cars or parking them on the
streets without front and rear lights
burning from thirty minutes after sun
down to thirty minutes before sunrise.
Another ordinance forbids the use of
cut-outs within the city limits.
The marshall advises that he will en-
force these ordinances to the letter in
ell parts of the town to which they sp-
pig and he asks auto drivers to assist
bin in this enforcement
Most of these ordinances have beer
on the books of the city for years but
they have been only spssmodieslly en-.
forced from time to time. little atten-
ton being paid to them the most Of the
time.
