l?y Frederic J. Hasktu. which Is now I

NO other country has such an
extensive system of weather In-j
vestigation and forecast as thej
I'nited fltates. Spending morej
titan a million and a half dol-j
lnrs a year to be weatherwlse, Uncle Sam,
is learning many seo-eis of the atmos-!
phere titat have never been know n before. |
The Mount Weather station of the weather
bureau, situated in the Blue Rid.tr
mountains of Virginia, lias been equiyped j
with every sort of instrument human in- j
genuity can devise to pull down the se-j j
crets of the upper air.
The weather bureau gets report j from
more than :i,500 land stations, U.otkt ocean |
vessels and some 30 foreign stations, j
The information which comes to the
weather bureau from all these places
enables the forecaster to venture a pre
diction about what the weather will be
for the next thirty-six to forty-eight
; hours, and in a general way for a week
t in advance.
ft is said that more than so per cent of
the winds, rains and storms follow beaten
paths, behaving upon established prtnei[
pies, and doing just as the weather man
i expects them to do. Sometimes, however,
1 a storm will refuse to follow the lieaten
; paths and it is then that the weather man
fails. The average man remembers the
. one. failure, which is a miss, rather than
\ the five In which the weather man correctly
predicts the weather. The weather
, forecasts are based upon simultaneous
observations of local weather conditions
taken dally at 8 o'clock In the morning
a ?a o -? 1- *? * ? -
aim ai 9 u ciuck in me evening, eastern i
time, at about 200 regular observing sta- ; '
tions throughout the United States and I?
the. West Indies, and from the reports I
received daily from various other places' 11
in the western hemisphere. The results i ?
of these observations are telegraphed to)
the weather bureau at Washington, where
they are charted for study and interprc- .
tatlon by experts. j1'
A complete telegraphic report iricludes 1,1
j data describing t he temperature, atmospiieric.
pressure, precipitatiori, direction
of the wind, state of the weather, wind
velocity, the kind and amount of clouds J"1"
I and the direction of their movements. "V
Prom these data the forecaster, by com-1
parison with preceding reports, is able *
to trace the path of the storm area from ;
the time of their appearance to the mo- j
ment of observation, and approximately! T
to determine and forecast their sutose-i
quent courses and the occurrence of o'iierj
weather conditions. Forecast centers are . *
also established at Chicago, New Orleans, ' (
Denver, San Francisco and Portland. Ore. SJ
Within two hours after the morning ^
observations' have been taken the fore-!
casts are telegraphed from the forecast!
stations to more than 2.300 principal dis-jr)
tributing points where they are further'
disseminated by mail, telegraph and tele-] 'C(
phone. The forecasts are mailed to' 6<
135,000 addresses a day and delivered to u,
nearly 4,000,000 telephone suscribers with- jj,
in an hour from the time the prediction 5
is made. r<
In addition to this service there is w
what is kntwn as the cllmatological 5,
service, which collects data with refer- e(
ence to temperature and rainfall and ic
crop season conditions. During the 01
winter months a publication known as w
the Snow and Ice Bulletin is issued, ti
showing the area covered toy the snow, u
the ?e.pth of the snow, the thickness of V
ice in rivers and other matters reported ti
upon from every section of the country, p
This putollcation is of speaial interest to fi
1 ihmo interested in the winter wheat n
crop, to ice dealers, to the manufacturers! U
of rubber goods and other articles the' w
sale of which is largely aflfecteu by the h
presence or absence of snow and ice. it
The extent to which the work of the a
weather bureau afreets the daily life of
the people is very great, and is said to w
be increasing yearly. Perhaps the most w
directly valuable service rendered is that di
of the warnings of storms and hurricanes hi
i issued for the benefit of marine interests, a:
These warnings are displayed at nearly a<
300 points along the Atlantic. Pacific M
and gulf coasts and the shores of the tl
great lakes, including every port and a
harbor of any considerable importance. V\

Charles H. Souder, Prince

Dies From His Injuries.
t<
i f<
f Special Dispatch to The Star.
! HYATTSVIL.L.E, October 14.?Jumping bl
I over the dashboard of a motor truck in
? motion, which speeded up Just as he ^
landed aboard, Charles Henry Souder, a
sexagenarian farmer, "lost his talance,
fell under the machine, which ran over
him, causing injuries from which he
died. The strange tragedy happened in
front of the Ram's Horn Inn on the
Queen's Chapel road, about a mile west
of Hyattsville. shortly after noon today.
Three ribs were fractured and the collar
bone was broken. An internal hemorrhage,
cafised by the puncture of his
lungs by one of the broken ribs, brought .
death quickly. '
- Mr. Souder. aged sixty-four years,
was a prominent trucker, residing
near Chillum. Prince Georges county. b<
A motor truck of the Bulck Water
Company of Washington, driven by
Charles Miller, was at the roadhouse
to repair an automobile which had become
disabled the night before. Mr.
Souder was a friend of Mr. Miller.
As the truck was leaving the inn
J Mr. Souder jumped into the machine
over the dashboard with the purpose
of riding to his brother's home* near
I Chillum. As he leaped the machine
1 started up. Mr. Souder lost his ball
ance and fell out. The heavy rear
. wheels of the machine passed over
his body. e)
Dr. Guy W. Latimer of Hyattsville
| was summoned. Mr. Souder was dead
before he arrived.
C
Inquest Deemed Unnecessary.
Justice of the Peace John Gibson, act- P1
ing coroner of Hyattsville, went to the
scene and after examining several wit- m
.tesses concluded that an inquest was un- !
necessary.
Mr. Souder's body was removed to the
home of his brother. Lewis F. Souder,
near Chlilum, where the funeral will take u
place probably Monday. Interment will "
bo In Rock Creek cemetery".
Mr. Souder lived about three-quarters 81
of an hour after being run over, but did
not regain consciousness. He was well s*
known in the upper section of Prince
Georges county, being an active worker 8<
, in the democratic party. He was un- p
j married. r
j No possible blame attaches to Mr. Mil- H
ler for the unfortunate accident, in the
opinion of eye .vitnesses.

laritime interest has occurred for years Li
f which ample warning's have not been oil
isued from twelve to twenty-four hours cr
1 advance. .e?
The warnings displayed for a single .ni
urrieane are known to have detained ar
l port 011 the Atlantic coast vessels val- X;
pd. with their cargoes, at more than $5b.- ar
0,000. The warnings of sudden and m
pstructive changes in temperature are
sued from twenty-four to thirty-six eu
ours in advance, and are disseminated
iroughout tlie threatened regions by j T)
eatlier bureau flags and otherwise. The : atl
arnings issued for a single void wave ' p|.
re .said to have saved over $."1,000,000 j th
T property from injury and destruction. ! j(.
he warnings of frost and freezing j Cp
eatlier are of great interest to the
rowers of fruit, tobacco, cranberries
rid market-garden products. The value m
r the orange blooms, vegetables and jn
xawberrles orotectcd ami saved on a tQ
ngle night in a small district of Florida Kl
as estimated at more than $100,000.
The publication of river and flood fore*sts
based upon reports issued by the
0 river and rainfall stations upon one i m
pcasion resulted in the saving of live m
ock and property to the estimated val- <]
e of .$15,000,000 when the approach of a in
ood in the Mississippi was forecasted tj,
v the bureau a week in advance. Railjad
companies make continued use of w
eather forecasts in all tlieir shipping q,
usiness. Perishable products are protectJ
against extremes of temperature by la
ting or heating. Oftentimes shipments j,.
f perishable goods are hustled forward jj,
hen it is found possible to get them to tj
leir destination in advance of expected V)
nfavorable temperature conditions. "r<
i'hen this cannot be done goods in w
ranelt are run into roundhouses for
rotection. Bananas require very care- 1
j| handling- and must be kept at a tem- k
erature ranging from 58 to 65, and the J '
anana shipper keeps close watch on the
eather map. The meat man tries to ship ' jt
is products in cold weather, while the i _
lovement of live stock by freight is i
voided when a hot wave is forecasted. . *
Temperature forecasts and cold wave j ?:
arnings are closely watched by brewers, j .
inemakers and manufacturers of soft i
rinks. Wine shipments are usuail}r with- I
eld until danger from cold is passed, j .
