PREDICTS COLD WEATHER Henry Dielzel, our local .weather prognosticator, pre dicts a hard spell of cold weather for this section begin- f tjr aiiiig on February 3, and contin ,uing with more or less severity for two weeks following that .date. The new moon makes ' dts appearauce on that date, and the " cojd weather will follow nvith the increasing moon. A prophet, and especially a weather prophet, may not be iwithout honor except in his cjwn country, but Mr. Dietzol nist movement to the North west this year as a result of the reduced Kites than occurred in k!907, when in March, April, September and October 27,000 settlers came to the Pacific Northwest. This figure did not include those who came by way ot Puget Sound points, estima ted at 5000, and which won id increase the total to 32,000 new settlers. During the present year the colonist rates go into effect on March 1st, and from Omaha, Kansas Cily, St. Paul. Winnipeg and Duluth, aud all ihe territory surrounding those points, tickets can bo secured to any railroad point in Oregon for only $30. Through these special colonist rates, the rail roadsof the Northwest are do iug a great work in bringing into this state and Washington a good class of settlers. Most of those who take advantage of the rates remain, or else, after leturning to their homes and disposing of their property come back to the Northwest, bringing others with them, spreading the gospel of mild climate and many advantages awaiting the homeseeker in the Pacific Northwest: Persons desiring to send information to relatives and friends in tho East . 1 can secure sucu jniormation ns they desire from any O.
