St. Joseph, Mo., June 29.—My
last bulletin gave forecasts of the
storm wave to cross the continent
from June 30 to July 4 and the
next will reach the Pacific coast
about July 5tb. cross the west of
Rockies country by close of tith,
great central valleys July 7 to 9
and the eastern states 10th.
Accompanying this disturbance
a very considerable amount of
rain will fall from Kansas
and Nebraska along and near the
40th parellel to New York and the
New England states and follow-
ing this disturbance the weather
will be cool for this time of the
year.
In connection with this storm
wave the warm wave will cross the
west of the Rockies country about
July 5th, the great central valleys
7 and eastern states Oth. Cool
wave will cross the west of Rock-
ies country about 8th, great cen-
tral valleys 10th, and eastern
states lltli.
The third disturbance of July
will reach the Pacific coast about
July 11th, cross the west of Rock-
ies countries by close of 12th, the
great central valleys 13th to 15th
and eastern states 16th.
Rains from this disturbance
will be about the same and in the
same parts of the United States as
mentioned for the storm wave of
•ith to 10th and following the
storm the temperature will be
lower than usual.
The warm wave connected with
this last disturbance will cross the
west of Rockies country about the
llth, great central valleys 13th
and eastern states lath. The coc 1
wave will cross the west of Rock-
ies country about llth, great
central valleys 10th and eastern
states 18th.
july temperature and rain.
As no writer has ever lived
whose predictions have been un-
destood alike by all who have
read them fiequeut explanations
are necessary in order that a fair
proportion of my readers may give
a right construction to my weath-
er forecasts.
There is a broken chord some-
where, that by sympathetic vibra-
tions or otherwise, incapacitates
the English— I would rather sayr
United States—language for being
understood even when written in
the plainest newspaper or maga-
zene sentences.
In my long range forcasts of
temperature and rain or drouth it
is not possible to be exact in all
particulars but I try to make the
forcecasts practical. My weather
tables unmistakably indicate the
general characteristics of the crop
aud the winter seasons, but it is
very difficult to determine exactly
when the change from a drouth to
excessive rains or from a long
heated term to a long heated term
to a long low temperature will
occur.
But I can, as my readers well
know, give fair warning of drouth,
as I did in reference to the April
and may drouth of this year and
of the breaking up of the drouth
as I did in reference to June for
west of the Mississippi and a con-
tinuance of the drouth well along
into June for east of the Missis-
sippi.
If readers will note carefully all
these forecasts they will find them
practically correct, although a
drouth predicted for one month
may run over a little into the fol-
lowing month, and the same may
occur as to temperatures
There is no means of knowing
the future of the weather except
by the records of past weather and
as these records are often very de
ticient our weather rules can not
always be perfect.
I have just completed my thiri
calculation for July and the fol
lowing are the results:
East of the Alleghanies and
north of Washington city the tem-
perature will l>e about aud the rain-
fall above normal.
The Ohio valley, Tennessee aud
the lower lakes will average much
cooler than usual and the rainfall
will be above the average.
The southeastern states will have
average temperature and a drouth.
The southwest, including Texas,
Western Louisiana and Oklahoma,
will have average temperature and
and rain.
The upper Mississippi valley
and upper lakes, including the
country north, northeast and
northwest of St. Louis, will aver-
age cooler thau usual and therein
a deficiency of rain wiil occur.
In the Missouri and Red rivers
of the north valleys temperature
will average below and rainfall
about normal.
On the north Pacific slope the
temperature will be about and
rainfall below normal.
On south Pacific slope temper-
ature will be al>ove and rain below
normal.
In the west of Rockies country
temperature and rainfall will be
about normal.
Within the districts mentioned
above the rainfall will vary in
tier districts and I have only
to giv$ Uft geaqrfat#^-*^

Jtathe foli<#wing forecast* oKthe
ter the oeldesl and
are not
half of a month may be moderate
ly warm and the other half
extremely cold in which case the
month would be set down as cold
because its average would be be-
low the normal.
In speaking of a wintei as mild
or as cold four months—Decem-
ber, January, February and
March—are usually considered
and it is the last part of the winter
that most affects animal ard veg-
etable life and the general welfare
and pecuniary interests of man.
To know whether the coining
winter will be a warm or cold one
would make or save millions of
dollars to our people and while
the winter may not, in all respects
and in all places, be as I have
calculated I will say with the ut-
most confidence that to adopt the
following forecasts as correct will
result in a very large balance on
the side of profit for the people of
the United States.
The winter of 1895-6 will be a
long, cold, "hard" winter over the
whole of the United States. The
term ,lhard'' as applied to winter
seasons is probably of western
origin and has reference to fre-
quent and sudden changes that
are very severe on unsheltered
animals.
December, 1895, January,
March and part of February will
average cold and a general thaw
will occur in February.
December, 1895, will be gener-
ally and severely cold in the
United States and Canada. Janu-
ary and March will be severely
cold in the valleys of the Ohio,
Tennessee, Upper Mississippi
and Missouri and the Lake coun-
try.
From the crest of the Rockies
westward the winter will taper off
to milder in the direction of Van-
couver's island, February showing
the greatest departure on the col i
side.
Besides these general features
many extremes will occur that I
can not undertake to give in this
mlletin.
As to ttie condition of winter
grains much depends on the
amount of snow and the weather
n September, October and No-
vember of this year and I will
give in these bulletins, in time for
practical results, my calculations
as to the sowing of fall grains.
HORSES ARE HAS BEENS.
Oregon Is About to Start in
Use Them for Fertilizing
and Oil.
to
A novel enterprise is being pro-
jected near Portland, Ore., by a
number of energetic men. It is a
manufactory for utilizing the vast
number of horses of the northwest
by turning them into oil, glue and
fertilizing material, extracting the
superior tallow and preserving the
hair and skin for use in various
ways. The managers expect to
kill between fifty and sixty horses
a day.
They say that the introduction
of electricity and the bicycle
throughout the country have so
curtailed the need of horses that
large bauds in Oregon and Wash-
ington have almost no value.
The only way therefore to re-
duce the large numbers grazing on
the great ranches each eating
about as much as two head or
more valuable cattle, is to grind
them up. The company has
bought between 5000 and 6000
head at a cost of $3 each on the
ranches and they believe they can
get a great many more at about
the same price. These horses used
to readily sell at $50 each. But
prices have fallen so low lately
that one band of between 1000 and
1100 head grazing partly in Ore-
gon and partly in Idaho was sold
lately for the lump sum of £2000.
The owners have closed no con-
tracts, though they say they
would be willing to do so at a cent
a pound. They would sell to
anybody at that rate, always mak-
ing it clear, however, that it was
horse meat and on no other under-
standing. However, to furnish
meat for consumption is not their
object. A small quantity may be
sent to Europe as an experiment
as in some parts of Europe horse-
flesh is being used for food.
The projectors believe they are
doing a public good in ridding the
country of live stock that since
the introduction of the bicycle
and the electric aud cable cars lias
no value as transportation power.
No longer are car horses or livery
horses desired to the degree they
once were. In place ot keeping a
horse, a man now has a bicycle
on which he goes out for a ride.
For freighting and for all the uses
to which horses were once put
only a few are now required.—

WHAT TO PUT IN THE TRUNK.
You are all ready to go away;
yourVlothes are finished and pack-
ed; you have selected a place
wherein to pitch your tent for the
summer, and your tickets are
bought. All your difficulties are
settled, excepting the last one o!
what shall go iu that small extra
trunk. A great deal depends of
course upon where you are going,
but here is a list of things which
will be needed wherever you are:
The thing which goes down first
is a hot-water bag. The occasions
which call for this homely comfort
are sure to be frequent. A sudden
fit of cramp, a too prolonged siege
of bathing, a chill, a turn of rheu-
matism, and you will fly for the
bag. Even if you never need it
yourself you will be glad of hav-
ing it to lend before the summer
is over. Fillei with crushed ice
a water-bag soothes a fevered or
aching head wonderfully. To go
with the bag get one of the small
50 cent gas stoves to be found at
any hardware store if gas is used
where you are going, and if not
procure a wire frame to hang upon
a lamp chimney. One of the won-
derful wire contrivances which
combine a flower holder, a lamp,
stove and almost everything else,
will do, and a small covered
saucepan, tiny skillet or kettle
will complete the outfit.
Its uses are manifold and once
tried it will never again be lett out
of the summer trunk.
While on the subject of the little
stove make a i!'./te of the varied
usps to which it may be put, and
foremost among the,:e is the get-
ting up of the luuches, which are
so a"f«>ptable after an evening ot
bathing, a long tramp or any of
the occasions which arise betwe n
| meal times when a little light food
seems to tili a very real need.
: Take a bottle of malted milk, a
can of cocoa or chocolate, a tin of
| beef extract or clam bouillon, a
liittle each of tea aud coffee and a
lireuerous allowance of crackers.
I When you feel hungry don't hesi-
tate and wonder whether you need
food or not, but put that sto\e
into operation aud supply the
needed nutriment without delay.
Much of the good effect of a vaca-
tion outiug is lost by just such
trifles, and a little nourish-
ment at the right time is better
than much medicine at any time.
A tin or two of potted meat, a
can of sardines and a package of
chocolate should go into the trunk,
too, mindful of the long excursions
you will be sure to make and the
meager, tasteless lunches srme
country landladies put up. Nuts
are always good and the obiqui-
tons peanut is a real friend at such
times. These nuts do not spoil by
keeping. They contain more nour-
isment in proportion than most ar-
ticle of diet and a bag of them is
the lightest lunch possible for the
tramper to carry. Add a couple
oranges, and a cracker or so and
your repast is perfect, to say
uothing of the convenient manner
in which it can be stored away in
the pockets of the travelers, and
the fact that nothing remains
to be tedious lugged back again.
A few pounds of dried fruits,
dates, figs and raisins, are
often worth their weight in gold
An extra blanket for each member
of the party is a necessity under
all circumstances, for the summer
resort beds are rarely covered
warmly enough for the chilly-
nights which are sure to come,
and a farm honse bed room is fre-
quently supplied with cotton bat-
ting-lined "comforts," bearable in
winter, but beyond all endurance
in summer. Many a severe "sum-
mer cold" is caught on account of
these abominations, and the blank
ets are sure to be called for at
some time during your absence
from home. A warm wrap all
arouud is another necessity usually-
left out of the going away outfit,
and this, too, should be religiously
provided. Every one's private
trunk is sure to be overfilled, and
the only place for articles of this
is in the special trunk provided
for extras and under the special
care of the feminine head of the
party.
If you have any old evening
cloaks or dressing gowns lay them
in the bottom of the trunk. Very-
few persons are provided with
bathing cloaks and the others will
serve equally well when the shore
or beach is crowded or the air
chilly. They look better than a
gossamer, are warm, and having
no value can be treated as care-
lessly as convenient.
A little simple medicine should
always be carried on a hummer
trip and this should go into the
tray of the trunk where it can be
reached at a moment's notice.
Camphor, ammonia or alcohol for
the inevitable insect aites, arnica
or witch hazel for wounds or
sprains a little licorice or a few
seidlitz powders, Jamaca ginger or
baking soda for stomach troubles
and a case of mustard or bellado-
na piasters for the unaccountable
pains which sometimes appear at
night and make ljfe a burden. A
little dry mnstard to pnt in the
foot bath in case of cold or chill
will never come amiss, and borax
with which to soften hard water
should not be forgotten.
