we have ever known. commencing Friday
night and continuing on Saturday and
Sunday, piling snow up high and stopping
all traffic completely, on Monday the
people turned out and held the —reopen-

dug at Sproul's corner and at the Presby-
terian church, and breaking the road at
the Agricultural Hall, where the snow
was as high as the fence. was a big
job. On Tuesday there were quite a num-
ber of farmers in the village, and
neighbors were able to visit one another.
There were no services in the churches
on Sunday and the public school was
closed on Monday. and Tuesday.

THE BIG STORM.—The worst storm
that has struck thee. parts for a great
many years came along on Friday night
and continued until Monday, with a fierce
gale blowing at the rate of thy miles
an hour, and. something untrsual, the
thermometer registering 10 below zero.
Both railways we're blocked and all the
roads into'the town were filled up even
with the tops of the fences, making
travelling impossible. On account of the
blockade there was a scarcity of bread, as
we have no baker in the place and all the
head has to be shipped in. The fuel
question iso is a serious matter in this
locality. is the dealers seem to find a
great difficulty in supplying their custo-
mers. Although one of the dealers has
got in considerable coal. he seem; to be
supplying(� the farmers m ire than the
townspeople. To mike the dreariness of
the storm still woe the electric Lights
were out of commissi on Saturday and
