Hicks is inclined to believe tha snow and cold will prevail, and adds - "We believe that tee Mars influence will set a Winter pace that will mark the weather far into April." March gist will be the earth's vernal equinox. A phenometrally low barometer, great humidity and high temperature will be a warning of violent storms, anywhere from Friday Toth to Tuesday, 23rd, not- ably on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, 20t. 22nd and 23rd. In all prohabiliti this peri 6 will first bring storms of vicious Venus lightning and thtinder, high winds and possible tot nadoes to the South vard, all followed by turious gales from the Northwest, with blockading blizzards and drifts of snow, On ac- count of the prevailing periodsof 'Venus, Earth and Mars, there will be constant tendency to storms and unsettled weath- er all through this part of March. But the barometer will show decided storm conditions about 27th to mix. and storms of rain, turning to snow in North ern parts will march Eastward over the country. e The Value of Economy any people fail to cave, because they do not realize the importance of smell econotnieS, The practice, once begun, of laying aside a portion of your income, no matter bow small, every week or nuMthr Will soon become a Axed habit.
