14eteorology for the Farmers—A Sug
gestion by Lieut. Maury.
In the number for August of the Amer
ican Parmcr,we find a paper from the well
known .scientjfic gentleman, Limit. Maury,
S.-Nary, suggesting 1 - ,o the farmers
generally an plan for securing
. a more in
timate acquitintance with the influences
which surround them in the atmosphere,
from which they may derive advantages
in their profession equally as important as •
those which h tve ken secured to the mari
ner by the method of observation so ex
tensively carried out at sea under his aus
pices. Lieut. M. asks fur co-operation
his plan, which he sacs is "very sim
ple, aid calls on the fur in ers for little more
Allan god will;" and considering the
source from whence the suggestions on
the subject come, we should think they
.. would command the attention of all intcl‘
ligent men, and enlist the ready efforts of
the friends of agriculture in ell quarters—
OILS demonstrating that the farmers have
as due an appreciation of such underta
kings for their benefit and for the advanc
meut of science as the men who "go down
to the sta. in ships." Lieut M's sugges
tions are as follows :
I first want authority to take the pre
liminary .steps, and to confer with other
meteorologists and men of science at home
and abroad, with a view of establishing a
uniform system of metoroltigical observa
tions fur the land as wb have done for the
sea.
If any officer of the government were
authorized to say to the farmers, as I
have to the sailors , i here is the form of a
meterological journal; it shows you the ob
servations that. are wanted, the hours at
which they are to be made ; tells what
instruments are required, and how they
are to be used ; take it; furnish govern
ment with the observations, and in return
the government will discuss them and
give you a copy of the results when pub
lished—he would hove at once and with
out cost a volunteer corps of observers that
would furnish him with all the data requ-
isite for a complete study of both agricul
tural and sanitary meteorology.
Could not at least one farmer be found
on th average for every county in every
State that would gladly undertake the
observations? I don't think there can
be any difficulty on that score. Sailors
have been found to do as much on every
part of the sea—on an average ten obser
vers fir a State would be sufficient.
Now if we could get the English gov
er.iment, and the French government,
and the Russian government and the
other Christian States both of the Old
world and of the New to do the same by
their farmers, we shall have the whole
surface of our planet covered with meteor
ological observers acting in concert and
eliciting from nature under all
.varieties
of climate and circumstances, answers to
the same questions, and that too at no
other expense than that what each gov
ernment should choose to incur for the
discussion and publication of the observa
tions that are made by its own citizens
or subjects.
What is wanted in a system of observa
tions like this is uniformity. Hence co
operation—an agreement to observe the
same things at the same times—is essen
tial to anything like success. We. want
not only corresponding observations as to
the time, but we want 'them made with
instruments that are alike or that can be
prepared ; and then we may expect to
find out something certain and valuable
concerning the movements of this grand
and beautiful machine called the atmos
phere.
If yu ask me to state beforehand wbat
particular discoVeries or special results of
value I expect to 111111C13, I answer if
could tell, I would not ask your assistance
to make them,. The fields meterological
aro large—there,, are many of them, and
all tlttit, I- do know about them is that
there is in thc,m..otightll harvests of many
sorts. " .
rs ago' I commenced such a
system for the sea as I am now advoCating
—and 'as I Uow both see and feel the ne
cessity OfL—for the hind. After we bad
been itt *irk a little while and begun to
gatherlii 'On ivest of useful reSults , by
iscovering new truths and facts, Con
ress authorized the Secretary of the Na
y to employ' three small vessels of the
.avy to assist me in perfecting these dis.-
)veriesand pushing for ward investiga
ions.
Now you would have said, what two
'tings can be more remote than maps to
1 . how which way the winds blow, and a.
nb-marine telegraph across the Atlantic.
• LA.% it seems they are closely connected,
.or researches undertaken for the one are
found to bear directly upon the other , :—
Among the early fruits gathered by push
ing farward our system of such discov
eries, even with the slender means af
forded by Congress—for the Secretary
was authorised to let me have these three
small vessels only in case they should
cost nothing—there is promise of a sub
marine telegraph across the Atlantic.
We are told by the public prints that
a company has been formed fur the pur
pose, the money raised ; contracts made,
and the cable that is to hold the wires
and span the ocean has commenced to be
made. I have a piece of it now on the
table before me.
I One of the results in getting the wires
across will be to place the 'farmers with
their provision mar kets end produce ex
actly half the distance in time—and time
n , iw seems to be only the true measure of
rlistanee—from Europe that they now are.
Let us illustrate the value in one respect
only of this telegraph to the Farmers :
a demand springs up in England
for breadstufls for instance. 'The 'news
must now wait for the steamer to sail be
fore it is ready to come, and by the, time
she reaches our shores, and the produce
can be sent firrward, the chief granaries
of Europe have been ransacked, and the
American dealer finds himself too late in
the market.
But when the telegraphic plateau,
which we have discovered in the Atlantic,
shall be threaded with the magnetic cable,
the intelligence will be known in New
York, Cincinnati, St. Louis and New Or
leans as soon as it is in Liverpool.—
Straightway the produce is put in motion,
and instead of coining in "the day after.
the fair," as is now too often the ease, it
will arrive with the young of the flood
that comes rolling in from the East to
meet the demand. By this achievement,
or by the achievements which these in
vestigations at sea have already accom
plished in the shoOiening of the voyages
uid saving of time, who have been the
treater gainers, the farmers or the tiler
:hams ?
Storms on land have a beginning and
sn end ; that is they commence at one
place, and frequently after several days
travel end at some other; at least so it is
held. What would it be worth .to the
farmer or the merchant, or to any body,
if he could know with something like
certainty the kind of weather we might
always expect one, two, three or more
days ahead ?
I think it not at all unlikely that such
to some extent at least, would be among
the first fruits of this system of observa
tions that I am proposing.
Certain of the observers scattered over
part 3 of the country, would probably
be required to make daily reports to the
central office in Washington as to the
weather, each for his own station—say at
9A. 'M This would soon enable us to de
termine the laws of progress ,as well as
the march of the various states of weather
such as gales, rains, snow-storms and the
like ; so that by knowing in what part of
the country a storm had arisen we should
—learning through the telegraph We direc
tion it might take—be enabled to calculate
its rate of travel, and to predict within a
few hours the time it would arive at differ
ent places on the line of march; • and know
ing these, the telegraphic agency Which
the newspaper press of the country has es
tablished here, wuu'd without more ado or
further cost, make the announcement the
next morning in all the papers of the
land.
I allude this as an exemplification only
Gf sonic of the first fruits of the plan. 1
do . not suppose we should be able to tele
graph in advance of every shower of rain
but without doubt the march of the rains
that are general, can be determined in
tine to give the people in some portions
of the country at least,:warning of their
approach.
Stich an office ns will be required here
in Washington, to carry out the details
of this plan is already in existence. It
was established by Mr. Calhoun when he
was Secretary of War, and it is under the
control of the Surgeon General of the
Army. There the meterological obse,rva
tions that are made at our military posts
are discussed and published; and ono of
the most valuable and interesting reports
concerning the reetorology climates of the
country that has over appeared, is now
in course of nublieatiou there. Or Huai
an office might be made a; branch of the
"Agricultural divis on of the Patent of.
fic0."!..,1n either case the nuoleus for it
is already in existence; and the only ex
penso necessary would be on necount,of
galvitioAr? Qs)n.soo
the addit6 to the force of the.office that
would b required to disOuss the'obserya
tions after they are made.
I make the appeal to the farmin g inter-,
ests especially, because that is the great
scheme ; and if the farmers do not really
care enough about it to use their influence
with their representatives in Congress to
procure the very trifling . appropriation
that, is required to.get it under way, I do
notsee why I should give myself any fur
ther trouble in the matter.
•
Will you not bring the subject tb
some tangible shape before the agricultu
ral societies of the country ? A' simple
memorial from thesm to congress would
not fail to procure all the legislative aid
necessary.
Some of the leading scientific men of
Europe are ready to join us in such a
plan : and with authority to confer with
them qficially, as to details, I have no
doubt that most of of the governments of
the world would undertake, each for it
self and within its own territories, a cor
responding series of observations, so that
we should then be able to study the move
ments of this great atmospherical ma
chinery of our planet as n whole, and not
as hitherto in isolated detached parts.
