Foster's Weather Forecast,
My last bulletin gave forecasts of the
storm wave to cross the continent from
October °0 to November 3, and the
next will reach the Pacific coast about
November 4, cross the west of Rockies
country by close of 5th, great central
valleys 6th to Sth, eastern states 9th,
Warm wave will cross the west of
Rockies country about November 4th,
great central valleys 6th, eastern states
Sth. Cool wave will cross the west of
Rockies countty about November 7th,
great central valleys 9th, eastern states
11th.
Temperature of the week ending
November 13 will average below nor-
mal east of the Rockies and above
west. Precipitation will be the reverse
of this, and in the northern states east
of the Rockies much of the precipita-
tion will be snow.
The temperature from October 1 to
October 20 followed the forecast curve
almost perfectly, but was higher than
the forecast indicated.
A rising temperature may be expect-
ed near November 1, and following
that a long cold period from November
15 to November 22, which will be warm
and then severe cold for the remainder
of the mouth.

Can We Get It?
A shirt manufacturer in a town in
the eastern part of the state employing
about fifty hands with about $2,000
monthly pay roll, is looking about for
a place to locate with his factory. He
wants an $300 bonus from the town
to locate such a plant. Carcnot Centre
Hall's energetic citizens get sufficient
movement on them to have this plant
locate here? It would be the greatest
benefit to all lines of business, and
give employment to the many young
people who are compelled io seek em-
ployment outside the place. A board
of trade might succeed in securing
such enterprises. A fitting example
may be cited in across the Boyder
county line in Middleburg, a town of
litte more population than Centre
Hall, where its citizens secured a shoe
factory which went a-bidding. The
plant now employs fixty hands and is
one of the best things the town ever
had.

The “Change of Air” Care.
“There is no sense,” a New York
physician is reported as saying, “in
the hap-hazard way in which a patient
is sent away from home to exhaust his
strength and spend his money in tae
hope that a change of air will do bim
good. There is no use in sending a
person away to die. Many physicians
are not all considerate enough about
this sort of thing. There are some
cases in which the influence of climate
is a potent factor in the treatment of
certain diseases, but not half so many
of them as is generally supposed. Qui-
et and rest at home, plenty of sun-
shine, good food and pure air, are
worth far more than a change of cli-
mate, thet is so often recommended as
a cure-all.”
Brilliant Display Promised,
The atmosphere predicts that the
display of meteors on the night of the
14th of November will be remarkably
brilliant. These great showers of me-
teors occur every 33 years. Two pre
vious showers in 1883 and 1866 were of
wonderful brilliancy., Some of the
meteors that are flying through space
can be seen nightly at present.

Ou n Deer Hunt.
Yesterday moriaing, Nov, 1st, the
season for legal killing of deer opened
in this state and many parties left the
night before to be on the happy hunt-
ing grounds for a couple days sport in
the Centre county deer wilds. The
Bradford hunting party went to their
usual haunts in Stone valley. It was
composed of John Coble, Frank Brad-
ford, George Bradford, Clyde Bradford
John Kuhn, Isaac Shawver and Will
MeClenahan. This party will be gone
nearly a week.
Another party of younger sportsmen
composed of Harry Harper, the Ho-
man and Kerstetter boys and several
others went into the mountains to
stay until they had a crack ata deer.
There is no likelihood of venison
coming a drug on the market.

Additional Tax on Fadgment Notes
The Commissioner at Washington
has decided that ordinary judgment
notes will hereafter be considered as
the same as bonds, and tax: d 50 cents
each under the War Revenue law, and
if a power of attorney is embodied in
the note it must bear an added stamp
worth 26 cents, The universal prac-
tice emong business men and internal
revenue collectors has hitherto been to
consider a judgment note as an ordina-
ry promissory note, carrying as tax a
stamp worth 2 cents for every $100 of
face value. In order to secure a clear
decision in the matter, Collector Me-
Clain wrote to the department on Oc-
form of judgment note, and he has re-
ceived the following reply :
“Bir: Iam in receipt of your letter,
in which you refer to
| tion in reference to the liability of ob-|
ligations to pay money under seal, and |
you inclose such a form of obligation |
in your letter, to be formally ruled |
upon. In reply you are advised that |
this instrument is taxable at
of 50 cents, as a bond, and 25 cents for |
