Abstract
THE Meteorological Council has made provisional arrangements for the sale of single copies of the Daily Weather Report at a penny each from the first of August next. The copies will be on sale from about 3 o'clock of the afternoon of the day of issue at the Meteorological Office and at the railway bookstalls of the following terminal railway stations in London: Victoria (S. E. & C. and L. B. & S. C.), Charing Cross, St. Pancras, King's Cross and Euston. Hitherto the issue of the reports has been confined to certain public offices and institutions, and to annual or quarterly subscribers. The distribution has been by hand or by book-post. The area within which delivery can be effected on the day of issue is necessarily very limited, and it is hoped that the facilities afforded by the new arrangement may bring the information which the reports contain within the reach of some of those interested in the subject who live outside the present limits of delivery on the day of issue. If the provisional arrangement should make it apparent that there is any public demand for the accommodation, efforts will be made to continue and extend it.
