LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.

UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE,
WEATHER BUREAU, OFFICE OF THE CHIEF,
Washington, D. C., August 1, 1911.

Hon. JAMES WILSON,

Secretary of Agriculture.

SIR: I have the honor to transmit herewith a paper entitled "A Course in Meteorology and Physical Geography," which has been prepared by Prof. W. N. Allen, of the Tacoma High School, Tacoma, Wash.

Most of this course treats of meteorology, to which the other portions are cognate and introductory. If published, it would be of value to the Weather Bureau, both indirectly by increasing the attention given to meteorology in our high schools and also directly by guiding the younger men of the service in their elementary studies. I therefore recommend its publication as Weather Bureau Bulletin No. 39.

Very respectfully,

Approved.

JAMES WILSON,

WILLIS L. MOORE, Chief U. S. Weather Bureau.

Secretary.
