Weather Forecasts - In predicting the weather there are as many as fifty variables, including temperature,; humidity, barometric pressure direction and velocity of the wind, gravity, mountain barrier, etc., which arust be considered. It is, of course, impossible for wea ther men to make the utmost use of all of these variables in the time al lotted to them to formulate and re cord forecasts. As a matter of fact, if all the weather variables were proper ly considered, a crew of Tnatheme ticians would be kept busy for many days and by the time they came to a conclusion, it would no longer be a forecast..,.-'' ' For years we have needed a ma chine that will take no longer than a quarter of an hour to form all of the calculations on which- an accurate pre diction of the weather can be based each hour.

Hot-Stuff Predictions One of the nation's better maga zines, for those interested in current events, reported in a recent issue that a truce in Korea was a faded pros pect "',""'' This fine magazine .then predicted that the war would drag on. In the very next issue of the same maga zine, Jn the same feature, the pre diction was that a truce, once again, was a reviving prospect. This item is just one of many en 1 countered when a publication' attempts to look ahead, with- printed thoughts and predictions. While this is no re flection on this outstanding magazine, necessarily, it does prove that those always seeking a positive statement or result, or .trying to forecast one, often go astray. Despite all the col umnists and magazines, and their at tempts to look into the future for the reader, the reader will be wise to ac cept only facts on what has already happened and not predictions of what is to happen. ,. It is an old custom in the United States that the experts fight out the wars before the soldiers actually come into contact. This, in itself, is a dif ficult enough task, not to mention the job of forecasting the outcome of truce negotiations before the negoti ators have completed (heir discussions. While there is nothing wrong with the latter process, a lot of time can be wasted in coming to two or three con clusions, and reversals, before the outcome of the event is actually clear.

Ov erman, county farm agent for the State College Extension Service. He potato out that tools, bags of feed, buckets, and just common debris and trash ere responsible for hospita lizing one out of every five accident victims on the farm. This was shown by a study conducted by the National Safety Council. ... , The largest single cause of injur ies, other than the personal factor of poor judgment, is disorder. To slay safe, the farmer should correct such hazards as broken, wob bly steps which might cripple someone for life; tottery old buildings that sometimes cause serious injuries; un marked bottles of poison, and poisons left within the reach of children which often cause tragedies; accumulations of trash, paper, scattered boxes and boards, rags and rubbish which are serious fire hazards and ideal breed ing places for rats. "Springtime," says the county agent, "is nature's cleanup time, , a time when the earth takes on a new, refreshed look. Let's help nature by cleaning up around the farm and in the farm home, wWch will not only give the farm a new look but will make it a safer and easier place for working and living."
