Show Forecast Says Warmer By 2 Degrees For Delta and Vicinity; May Hold Back j Frost While Seed Ripens Is Hoped i A forecast of 2 degrees higher Wednesday night !. than Tuesday night was made by the U. S. Weather Bureau forecast center for Delta and . vicinity. The ' j Chronicje called Mr. Carpenter at the center Wed- : ! nesday afternoon, after learning that the official ;.j recording at Deseret Tuesday night was 34 degrees. ji: I IS HOPEFUL ji i ! Mr. Carpenter stated further that there is no evi- j j dence to indicate colder weather, in fact it should j keep slightly warmer. It gives a narrow margin to i work on but he said he thought most farmers would prefer to work within it. Although no weather man j claims to be infallible, Mr. Carpenter felt hopeful that the weather would keep on the safe side. i:; DAILY BULLETINS . :,-...y-.TrJ I He said he had had a number of inquiries lately, j some as far south as Milford, some from Uintah. Knowing that the bumper alfalfa seed crop in West Millard kept farmers watching the approach of frost fearfully, he said the forecast center would start Thursday, Sept. 9, with daily bulletins. CALL THE CHRONICLE The bulletins will be telegrams each morning to Delta, delivered to the Chronicle office, which will gladly answer all inquiries as to what the daily forecast is. Miss Bernice Western, official recorder at Deseret, and W. R. Walker, at Sutherland, will send in daily reports to the center, which will later send back their forecast, based on the local and intermountain conditions. ! i BIG STAKES ARE INVOLVED Untold thousands of dollars are at stake in this fall's second crop seed which came on late, but is hoped to ripen before the frost. The Chronicel hopes that these forecasts will be of help to the farmers, I allowing their seed all the time possible to ripen, h and to cut before the frost does any damage. j Call us any day from now on and we will give ;: you the forecast. i |
