MICHIGAN WEATHER SERVICE.
This service, cooperating with the U. S. Weather Bureau, was established February 3, 1887, for the purpose of collecting and publishing the meteorological features of Michigan in detail; to aid the U. S. Weather Bureau in the accurate and rapid dissemina- tion of the weather forecasts and frost and cold wave warnings, and for publishing the weather conditions for the benefit of the agricultural, commercial and scientific interests of the state. The central office is located at Grand Rapids, with voluntary observation stations in nearly all counties of the state. Observations relative to temperature, precipitation, wind and cloudiness are taken daily and a monthly report furnished to the director at Grand Rapids for compilation and publication. The state furnishes the instruments and publishes the reports; the U. S. Weather Bureau furnishes all blanks, franked envelopes and the services of the director.
The forecasts and all frost and cold wave warnings are displayed in the lobbies of nearly every postoffice in the state. Through cooperation with the principal telephone companies most of the telephone exchanges in Michigan receive and distribute the daily weather forescasts each morning. These forecasts may be had by any subscriber shortly after 10:00 a. m. by calling up "central" and asking for them. The forecast is the one issued from Chicago for lower Michigan (lower peninsula) about 9:00 a. m. and covers the probable conditions for the coming night and the next day. The following telephone companies cooperate with the Weather Bureau in disseminating forecasts:
Benzie County Telephone Co. Blissfield Telephone Co. Cass City Telephone Co. Cass County Home Telephone Co. Central Michigan Telephone Co. Citizens Telephone Co. . Hillsdale County Telephone Co. Homer Telephone Co. Leslie Telephone Exchange. Michigan State Telephone Co. Montmorency Telephone Co. Mutual Telephone Co. Northeastern Telephone and Telegraph Co.

UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SIXTH CIRCUIT.
The sixth judicial circuit of the United States comprises Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee.
One term of this court shall be held annually on the Tuesday after the first Monday of October, and adjourned sessions on the Tuesday after the first Monday of each other month in the year except August and September. At the July session no causes will be heard, except upon special order of the court.
All sessions of the court shall be held at Cincinnati unless otherwise specially ordered by the court.
Upon the expiration of the time limited for filing briefs, the case shall stand for hearing when reached.
A calendar, containing all cases docketed and not heard, shall be printed by the clerk for the October, January and April sessions. The cases on the calendar which
109

866

stand for hearing will be called for argument in their order (as far as practicable) on the calendar, except as special advancements may have been made.
By leave of court and on motion of either party cases entitled by statute to pre- cedence, criminal cases, appeals, writs of error or petitions to revise in bankruptcy matters, and cases which are for the second time in this court, may be advanced and set for a designated session. The court may also, on ts own motion or for good cause shown on motion of either party, advance any case to be heard at any session, though the time permitted under the rules for filing briefs may not have expired at the day set for hearing.
Not more than three cases will be heard on one day (counting, however, as one case, two or more which are heard together). The call for the next day shall, at the adjourn- ment of court, be exhibited in the clerk's office. Counsel choosing to rely on the judg- ment of the clerk as to the probable time of hearing any case must do so at their own risk.
When the case is called, if either party is ready, the case will be heard. If there is no appearance for either party, the case will be dismissed. If the appellant does not appear by counsel or by printed brief but the appellee does appear, the case will be dismissed. If the appellant appears and the appellee does not, the court will hear the appellant.
By agreement of counsel in open court or by stipulation filed in the clerk's office, hearing may be continued once to any later session during the term or from the last session of one term to the first session of the next term, but not to a later day during the same session. Subsequent continuances can be made only by the court and will be only for reasons satisfactory to the court; and engagement of counsel in other courts will not be considered good cause.
Two or more cases, involving the same question, may, by order of the court, be heard together, but they must be argued as one cause.
