Meteorology
An invaluable publication for teachers and students alike. Contains
complete meteorological summaries for each month; accounts of all notable
storms, cold and hot waves, etc.; and a large number of articles on a wide
range of meteorological subjects. The charts show the tracks of areas of
high and low pressure which crossed the United States during the month,
the total precipitation, sea-level pressure, temperature and surface
winds, percentage of sunshine, etc., for the month. Other charts are also
frequently added.

College, Columbia University, New York City, Editor. Publication Office,
41 No. Queen Street, Lancaster, Pa. Ten numbers a year. $1.00 per annum.
A monthly journal devoted to the interests of the common school teacher of

climatological subjects.

Devoted to the advancement of all sciences. Contains brief _Current Notes

_Monthly Bulletins of the Climate and Crop Service of the Weather Bureau._
These _Bulletins_ are issued every month at the central office of the
Weather Bureau in each State, under the direction of the Section Director
of the Climate and Crop Service in that State. They contain meteorological
data for the month, and frequently notes of interest. The annual summaries
are especially valuable.
_E._ CHARTS.
_Daily Weather Maps._ These are published at the central office of the
Weather Bureau in Washington, and at eighty-four other stations of the
Bureau throughout the United States. It is best to have the daily maps
sent from the nearest map-publishing station, and not from Washington, as
the delay in the latter case is often so great that much of the immediate
value of the maps is lost.
_Climate and Crop Bulletin of the United States Weather Bureau._
Washington, D. C. Monthly.
Chart showing, by means of small maps, the actual precipitation,
departures from normal precipitation, departures from normal temperature,
and maximum and minimum temperatures. Also a printed summary of the
weather and of the crop conditions in the different sections of the United
States. Issued on the first of each month.
_Snow and Ice Chart of the United States Weather Bureau._ Washington, D.
C. Weekly during the winter season.
