Chicago, July 5. -Astronomical discoveries that scientists say may make it possible to iorecast weather conditions a- season in advance were announced today by Prof.

E. B. Frost of ierkes observatory, Williams Bay, Wis. The announcement is the result of ten years tabulation of observation of the sun. The records show that the "solar constant" does not exist, and th sun is a variable star and that solar radiation is indicated by the sun spots which wax and wane in a regular cycle of eleventh years.

The observations were made, according to Professor Frost, for the purpose of bringing the science of astronomy to the aid of agriculture in order that farmers may know in advance of planting seasons what crop prospects are. Variation in olar heat amounting to more than five per cent in a week was discovered. Radiation from the sun is high when sun spots are numerous. At present sun spots are few but in four years it may be expected that a large number will develope, according to Professor Frost. Astro observers are now devoting their chief attention to the observation of sun spotswhich expei ience has shown are the things which most affect all conditions of life onthis planet, Wecelebrated the 4th by taking a trip over to Toronto to see our mother.
