arid mountainous country Of that re
gion, from there to what was formerly
German Southwest Africa and finally
To BaluChiStan, northwest Of India.
On the site which he selects he will

complicated and sensitive instruments
which he has been largely instrumental
in developing during his 80 years
spent in the study of the sun. 1t is eX-
pected that the station will be ready
to begin daily measurements by next

Or. Abbot and his assistants in the

entire world in the study OF the sun
They began the first intensive work
ever done on the subject, invented and
perfected instruments such as the
bolometer, which measure variations
in the suns temperature as small as
one millionth of a degree, and other
Instruments such as the extrapolator,
which permits computations which

farmer, the aviator and the navigator
TO foretell the weather-nOt days, but
weeks, months and even years ahead,
DIR. Abbot heads the solar radiation
expedition of the National Geographic
Society in cooperation with the Smith
sonian Institution. The expeditions
objective Is to choose a site in the
Eastern Hemisphere for the establish

variations in the heat of the sun.
For it is by the study of the sun that
science hopes to realize its ambitious

Present Forecast Fallible.

At present weather bureaus base
their forecasts of rain or shine, heat
or cold. on temperatures and air pres
sures existing a various places on
the earths surface. But such fore
casts are only roughly accurate. and
at best they do not look ahead more
than a few days. The school of sci
entistS of which DIR. Abbot is the ac-
knowledged leader asserts that in con-
sidering temperatures and air pres
sureS, we are dealing merely with eff
fectS, and that ii we search out the
causes instead and grow TO understand
them we can propheSY weather
changes much more accurately and
much farther ahead. The primary
cause Of earthly weather, according 10
the school Of scientists is the sun.
and they believe that changes in the
weather are primarily due TO changes
from day to day in the amount of heat
given off by the sun.
The theory that the solar constant
of radiation is not a constant but Il
variable is comparatively new, and
Vet it has received already cOnSidera-
bile verifiCation. 1t was originated at
the end of the last century by Sam
uel 2. Langley, secretary of the Smith
sonian Institution, who also fathered
American aviation. Secretary Lang

urements of solar radiation in 1902 at
Washington and on Mount Wilson
Calf. In 1918 the Smithsonian eS
tablished another station for solar
measurements in the nitrate desert
Of Chile, and in 1920 a third was set
up on Mount Harqua Hala. in Ari-
zona, which took over the work pre-
viouSly done at Mount Wilson. AS a
result of the measurements made at
these stations. it seems certain that
the quantity of heat sent out by the
sun inCrea ses or decreases as much as
per cent in 10 days, though usually
more slowly.
The records indicate that these
changes in the suns heat have q di-
rect and perceptible influence upon
the weather. The foreca sting of that
influence has been developed TO such
a point that the Weather Bureau of
the Argentine government makes
Smithsonian solar radiation station
in Chile in its forecasts.
1t is on the strength of these ac.
complishmentS that the National Geo,
graphic Society has donated $40. 600 to
permit the Smithsonian Institution ;

of the changes of the suns heat to
the Eastern Hemisphere. The money
will permit the establishment of a
station and support its operation fol
four years.

WORK ON NEW ICE
PLANT HAS STARTED
COLD STORAGE WILL BE A
FEATURE. OLD PLANT AND
MACHINERY TO BE JUNKED.

Work has already begun on the new
plant OF the Atlantic Ice and Coal
Corporation, which will be located
just east Of the old one. The building
will be a two-story brick and con-
crete structure, and the entire plant
will be new throughout, including ma
chiuery. The upper story wills be
used for the manufacture OF ice, and
the lower floor will be used for cold
storage According to Mr. Johnson,
the efficient local manager, it will be
one OF the most modern OF the COM
pany's many plants, and will serve ice
to Cuthbert, Shelman, 'Richland and
other towns in this territory.
Mr. W. B. Baker president OF the
corporation. while here on a recent
visit, stated that although the COM
pany had several plants that were
larger than the one they are erecting
in Dawson, none OF them would excel
in modern machinery and building.
The farmers OF Terrell and adjoin-
ing counties, who have heretofore sui
tered the loss OF meat for lack OF cold
storage facilities will welcome that
feature OF the enterprise as filling
long-felt need
The old building and machinery
will be junked, and the city will open
a wide street to the property, which
will materially add to the appearance
OF that part OF the city,\ and to the
convenience OF the comp2ny's custo-
mers.
