Meteorology progressed in the nineteenth century, along with other branches of the natural and physical sciences, but sciences meteorology depends on the collecting of information simultaneouslyin distant places, little Scould be done before the invention pf telegraph to develop the sciences and make it useful in daily life. In 1849 the first meteorological observation to be communicated by telegraph reached the secretary of the newly founded Smithsonian institution. Joseph henry, who had organized a network of observers. By 1854 these Smithsonian observes were at ‘work in thirty-one states. Canada 10 and Paraguay. And the outbreak of the civil war, weather observations were collected for military purposes, and when congress created a national weather service in 1870 it was placed within the signal corps for the army. Forecast were sent by telegraph to weather stations, railstations , and the syndicated newspapers, and copies 15 were made and distributed to post office, where they were received five hours after the midnight predictions. Forecast were obviously important fot the farmer. In the early 1880’s a thirty- six hour advance frost warning was sent to Madison, Wisconsin, which would have allowed some time to protect the ripened tobacco crops, but because a 20 negligent telegraph operator failed to relay the information speedily, the crops was lost. In 1891 the weather bureau was put under civilian control in the recently established department of agricultucal where it improves and expanded its services, there-days forecast came in 1901, along with improved cold-wave and frost warnings, enalrgedservice include hurricane and flood warnings, a new 25 system to inform the public of of dangers of forest fire, and warnings of severe storms to protect the operator of pleasure craft. In 1940, with the increased importance of aviation, the weather bureau was moved to department of commerce. Then on april 1, 1960, as a by-product of the space program, the tiros weather satellite was launched into orbit, and its two television camera gave meteorologists a view of large-scale weather patterns from the first time. .

Instead of an “American house” it has become more accurate to speak in the plural: “American house” the trend toward more varied forms of housing can be compared to the explorers who went into the underveloped territories of North America before the twentieth century. Just as some people confidently opened up a new geographic domain in a quest for a better life, today there are homeowners who launch into new architecutural territories, searching for housing superior to the typical dwellings of the past. A few share Lewis and Clark’s sense of adventure and explore risky and breathtaking architectural terrain, far ahead of any mass migration. A great many more, by contrast, resemble the pioneers and settler who were driven onward by necessity; like these who went West to find new opportunity, many people today are moving to innovative housing like apartment’s, town house, and condominiums simply because the old standard of a detached house has slipped out of their financial grasp or in some way does not meet their needs.

These artists were commissioned to decorate local banks, railway stations and public buildings as part of a government program to employ those who lest their jobs because of great depression of the 1930's. artists, who were living on the fringers of the economy in the best of times, were particularly hard hit. To give them relief, the Public Works of Art Project, administered by the united states Wweasury department, was set up in 1933, Abandoned in June 1934, it was replaced a year later by several programs. The most important was the works progress administrations federal art project (WPA/FAP).The project was surprised by{ merica Design, a vast record of three history of ecorative arts in America. Through the Federal Art Project, painters, sculptors, and grapic artists were employed by the government at a monthly stipend, Among the artists who worked for the WPA mural and easel painting projects were Stuart Davis, Yasuo Kunoyoshi, Marsden Hartley, Jack Levine, Hyman Bloom, Loren Maclver, and Morris Graves, Younger artist included Willem de Kooning, Arshille Gorky, Jackson Pollock, and Philip Rothko.
