A SEVERE WINTER 00MING.--A11 the indications on which great reliance is always placed point to a long and severe winter,, says the Albany Ex- press. In the first place there is the goose hone. • For the . first. time in eight years it is very wide and nearly all white,.:which.is a sure sign of early snow; deep snow, and snow. of long ation. Then there is the rag weed. I is unusually tall. Thus does nature p vide for the feeding of the non migratory •bird when there is to be deep snow. Moreover, examination f corn husks has disclosed that they e unusually heavy. That is another ign of extreme cold. The woodchuck, furthermore, corroborates the other evidence with fur of unusual thickness. That is a sign that never -fails, even when others do. Lastly there. is to be considered that there is a surplus of temperature which will have to be wiped out, by a corresponding deficit. These indications wfll convince even the more skeptical and induce them to make wise provision. ' Miss Mill is visiting in London. Miss Ella Rollins is visiting . friends in Centralia this week.
