snowfall ot last week is still with u-
reinlorced w ith a lew inches that ha'
fallen tlii week, making altogether
tieptli of about six inchet. Tiic lowest

has not been lower than three degree
above zero, while the average has been
in the noiguborho.id of 90 abov
Kvervthinv conanlerc'l, winter grain is
doing as well as could ue expected. To
be sure, there is not tiie early rank
growth there was last wintei, nor i. it
desirable, lienerally there was go.!
germination last fall, whether ot earh
or late sown grain; nevertheless there
is not tlie difference in hcadwav that
would naturally be expected, the late
sown being nearly as tar along as tlie
early. The average grain grower seems
to lv a little puizled. taking into ac
count the warm open fall and winter
to know why wheat is not tanner
along than it' is, though it is thought
to be iust as well as it is. No doubt
all oi it lias good root and is much
better able to withstand freezing than
either in IWt) or ltKXJ.
It is said tnu I'matilJi Indians have
predicted "No winter, no summer tor

in this, the present snow, with maybe
some more added, w ill be with us two
