Variations in Prospect.
But he followed it up with a well
considered warning that regardles
of whether Spring has or has not ar
rived, Washingtonians need not take
it for granted that the present spell
ot Spring weather means that no
more cold weather is in prospect. AS
a matter of fact. the forecaster would
not be a bit surprised if all sorts

Worst Believed Past.
Speaking broadly, Mr.. Weightman
expressed the opinion that the worst
of the Winter is over If such is the
case, he added, we have just passed
through a season that was unusually
short and well behaved. In this con-
nection the Weather Bureau issued
an official statement calling attention
to the long, hard Winter" forecast
by some socalled 'long-range"
weather prophets employed by a
number of farm journals and al
manacS.
The comparatively mild season of
the past few weeks proves that long
range weather forecasting is not yet
reliable" Prof Marvin. chief of the
Weather Bureau, declared today
The bureaus statement pointed out
that snowfall for the country was
below normal, except for the region
from the upper Ohio Valley to New
England, where the fall was slightly
greater than normal.
The grand upset of the forecast
came, however, in February, for
which weekly cold waves were pre-
dicted." the statement continued "As
a matter of fact. not a single wide
spread cold wave occurred during
February and there was a remarkably
small number of purely local cold
waves. AS a result of the mild tenn
perature during the month fruit buds
III Southern States advanced prema :

fruit began to bloom al far North as
