Frosts and Agriculture in the United States

Abstract

THE United States Department of Agriculture has recently issued a publication on “Frost and the Growing Season.” This consists of a series of maps in colours and some diagrams from which the probable date of the last frost in spring and the earliest in autumn may be seen at a glance. An article on a paper by Mr. W. G. Reed on this subject appeared in the issue of NATURE for May 23, 1918, and the present publication is also by the same author.
