AN ODEN WINTER.
There WU1 be No Serious Cold Spells
This Season.
We have refrained trom it just as
long as we could, but there is no use
holding off longer, and we propose
to prophesy in regard to the wiater.
It will bean open winter.
° There will be no cold weather of
any consequence—a few little cool
spells, comparatively speaking, but
not real cold. The spring will coroe
early and with a rash.
It has been impossible so far for it
to get cold under tbe most favorable
circumstances. Wiien it rainB and
dears off warm repeatedly in Janu¬
ary, the case is hopeless.
