The resumption of the old plan of forwarding daily weather messages, except on Sunday, to all forecast display stations receiving such information by government telegraph servioe»--bas licen decided by the agricultural tjeparfment. It is the first important sehe'iie fsP intproveing the forecast sew ice to be put Jfito operation by Chi# rhe'weather bureau. The. present system sending

these messages only when decided changes in weather conditions are expected was found objectionable as tending toward indifference and icgleet, and many urgent requests for a change were filed. The resumption of the plan approved by Acting Secretary Dabney has been .under advisement for some time, but was delayed largely owing to <>x-Chief Harrington’s opposition. The dropping of the daily servicA has resulted in several of the oldest and best' ljunlified observers and displa/'men leaving the service owing to dissatisfaction With irregular forecast reports.
