Fostcr.l St. Joseph, bio, Jan. 20. My last bulletin gave forecasts of the storm wavrK to nross tho continent from Jan. 25th to 29th and 31st, to February 4th. Tho next will rcnoh tho Pacific coast about February 5th, cross tho western mountains by close of tho (itli, tho great central valleys from 7th toOth, and the eastern statcn about tho 10th. This will be an ujtly storm, at its greatest force in the central valleys and for the timo of year, will bo fol lowed by an unusually sovcro cold wavo which will devolop into a bli zanl in 6omo purls ol' tho country. The first ten days of February will avenge unusually cold, Tho warm wave will cioss the west cm mountains about tho full, tho great control valleys ubout the 7th, und tho eastern btatcs about tho ikh. Tho cool wavo will cross tho west ern mountains about the 8th, tho great central valleys about the 10th, and the eastern slates about tho l-'h, WNDB, HAIlOMKTEIIiJ AM) TKJII'EHA TURKH When no storms ure on tho conti nent the wind blow gently irom tho west. This is not the only timo the wind comes Irotn tho west, and tho weather student must learn to know tho dilFcrotico betweon a wost wind on the south side of a low barometer, and a normal west wind. Tho first indications of an approach ing low barometer with its vutiieroua storm centers and tho storm wavo is usually a south wind. .Very lit, I at first but finnke, after rising high, sw.4t1 .l..sr..

Sometimes tho wind blows two or throo days in that direction, tho wcathor growing warmer. When tlm low barometer is out on tho Pacific it begins to nlTdot tho at mosphere a thousand mi I oh catt und south; when it reaches Montana or Utah it niToctB the atmniphero in the great central valleys and when the low is in tho latter the eastern states be gin to sec its effects. These high and low barometers cov er a circular area and this area, for practical purposes, is divided into four equal parts Two lines are drawn through tho center of this circular area, ono from tho north to tho south, and the other from tho cast to tho west Kuoli of thcho divisions is called n quadrant. Tornados usuaP.y ocour in the south-cast quadrant of tho low or between that quadrant and tho north- est quadrant of tho high. Tho south east quadrant of the low is tho warm est, and tho north-cast quidrant of tho high is tho coldest parts of theso two storm wavo seotions. When your barometer, thcrmomster and tho wind indioato a low in tho north west and the wind begins to ohango from south to cast, that is tho first indication that cold weather will follow the storm. Tho reason of this is: When tho low passes south of a locality cold weather will follow, and when low passes north of a locality warm weather will follow. As tho wind always blows toward tho low before it arrives and in nearly it circlo around tho low center, a ohango of wind from south by way of oast to north, when tho low is west, tells plainly that tho storm confer is f)00 to 1000 miles west of you and moving southward. Tho high Daromctcr cool or cold wavo, will reach about as far south as its mate, tho low, and therefore you may be as wise as the hog, and while it is yet warm and probably a very clear deep blue sky is misleading less observant beings jou and some of tho lower animals will prepare for a cold wave. The above supposes tha. tho low does not touch your locality. But if it it dogs, as will bo shown by your barometer, and tho wind remains sometime steady from the south-west you are then on the south-east quad rant of tho low, the summer rainbelt tho tornado field, tho storm wae. If the center of tho low is moving over you the wind will presently ccaso to blow, tho ky become murky, clouds scattering and temperature hot aud debilitating. Theso aro tho indica tions when you aro in tha center of the low, and ai it passes on cast or south eastward, the wind will sudden ly spring up from the south-west, cooler nnd invigorating, Just thou 30U will probably get ruin or snow us tho hiuh comes iu. These high and low barometers follow each other closely, aro tied together like u long train of cars, and so far as is known there is no end to the train, It either extends all around tho cart h or what is ncurly tho ttnu thiuir, thoro aro two endless chains of these higl s and lows, ono cuciruling the magnctio nortn polo north-west of Hudson's bay nnd the other oiiouoling tho Aintio magnetic north polo near the Lena Hiver in Siberia, Keep in mind that on this continent this chain uinvotf eastward.

In tho land where thcro is continual sunshino nnd flowers, whoro tho grapo and pumpkin vino twincth, where tho orange blossom and tho rose scuds forth their fragrant perfume, whero fly und the ilea play hido-and-scck and leap frog. A certain Nobrankan who had tho California fovcr went out thcro lo make a stake. Ho lauded t Santa Ana, ono of tho great cities of Califor nia with its ono horse utrcot car line and ono row of clcolrio lights. Tho rcalcstatc men would tako turns in following him liko hounds after a fox. Thoy would drivo to his door and ask him to yo with them to soo a Ono ranch, which thoy would sell very cheap, and ho would certainly realize a furtuno by buying it. On tho way to these ranches they would como to land that would make a chicken soratoh to pick a living, then tho agont would odor him a cigar, if ho smoked, and touch tho horses with tho whip and try to kcop his attention until they como to a (ino ranch, then tho agent would talk and try to mako him be lieve that thcro was not another ranch liko it. This Ncbroskan informed them that his fret were lender, but ho always kept his boots on. Thoy soon found that he was not the man they were looking for and let him roft while they wuited for another one. This mau from Nc'traska noticed that on streets running north and 'Bouth nearly nil tho best residences aro built on tho west side of the stcct, and tho east eido is fruit trees, barloy of pumpkins. On inquiry of tho cause ho was informed that in tho dry season during tho summer teams go ing through the strcots caused .noro or less dust to raise, and tho ocean brcezo carries it to tho cast side. Kvery fow weeks or so a hard wind, called Santa Ana wind will blow from the northeast , and causes the dirt to fly as thick as it does iu Nebraska. Tho pcoplo of California dislike. tB have those storms. I believe that thoy are a benefit to the country for thoy blow away tho gonna of different diseases brought there by poople who come thcro for their health, Also the impurities caused by the decaying of vegetation and leaves of fruit trees, etc, which fall on tho damp ground eaussd by irrigating and causes the moss to grow on the buildings, fruit trees, fences and on tho top of tele graph poles, A great in my people go lo California thinking they will add inoro to their wealth, aud a great many invest their moncv, then become dis satisfied and sell at a great discount, A person may invest as heavily as ho wishes, but if wanting to sell, ho can sell by sacrificing or wait until ho could sell to some eastern person, and that is not very often. Tho California papers report that there aro thousand! of men out of emplojmtnt. While living nt Santa Ana ablo bodied men would oomo to tho door and beg mo t Civo thorn work so that ., , k; 1. . m, .. thoy could got food to eat. The writ- er behoves and would advise any eat cm poison who is making a comfort- living not to go to California, unless ho goes thero for a visit, or has friends to belt, h at to secure work, or has vis- , .
