It has been some time since my

that the winters here were not severe
and very little snow, bnt this statement bas been qnlte plainly contradicted by the weather conditions tbe ,
past two or thee weeks. The week
befor Christmas we bad a heavy fall
of snow, followed by high winds and
severe cold. We have had only the
one^fall of snow, but the cold has
continued right up to the present
time. There has been great suffering among the poor people, and it
bas been reported that many bave

Mr. Oviatt'e talk on "Farming from
a Business Standpoint," which was
very interesting, as indeed were all
bis addresses.
He spoke of tbe too frequent charge
that farmers are not business men, a
cbaige containing too much of truth
to bo pleasant. Farming is a complicated business and requires more
business ability than almost any
otber. One of tbe things tbat he
would urge most strenuously Is tbat
farmers do business strictly on tbe
square. No one can do business with
out capital and credit enables a man
