There's blizzard in the west,
SO beware,
Don't put on your summer vest,
No take care!
For when you freeze your nose,
And your finger tips and toes,
You will want your winter clothes,
So beware.

We learn that there will be quite
stir in drilling the coming spring.
Rumor has it that there will be five
wells sunk in the neighbor hood of
Wilcox, one at Rathbun, and the
well at Dagucahonda will be further
tested. There is no further develop
ment in regard to the Scahonda well,
neither will there be any until the
owners decide to Givulge. There
is certainly show of oil there,
but how much, it is impossible
to ascertain.-St. Marys Gazette.

OF their country will be imperilsd by any
extension OF its socinl and commercial
relations with the United States. Moth.
ing could DO further from the truth. He
could scarcely be better occupied than In
