We are now rapidly approaching the end OF
the severest winter that has occurred since the
settlement Of this section of Dakota, and soon
it will be thing Of the past. Nature will
put on her robe of emerald green and the
prairies be decked with flowers rivaling the
rainbow in the brillancy of their tints. The
birds will fill the air with their melody, the
rivulets and brooks will make music as they
ripple over the rocks which try to impede their
progress. Ye honest granger will shake off
his lethargy. and songs Of gladness will
awaken the echo as he sows the grain which
in tho fulness Of time will ripen into the
golden harvest that is to furnish the earth's
people with the staff of life. Then will the
boys gambol on the green, and bat and ball
furnish that exercise for the body which ex-
hilerates the blood and makes 1t go bounding
through every artery and vein, and make you
truly feel with every inspiration Of ozone that
infiltrates the lungs that life ID indeed worth
living-in Dakota. Then will those unfortu
mates who betook themselves 10 eastern places
for winters enjoyment return with stealthy
step aud ayerted head in vain attempt to es-
cape the observation Of friends and neighbors,
kicking themselves for the folly which induced
them to part with their many hard-earned
sheAels in search for pleasure and enjoyment
in the cold, damp and dismal climate Of the
East where every breath was like an iceberg
and every blast Of wind pierced the very mar
row Of their bones. Then will astonished
crowds stand with gaping mouth listening to
the recital by the returned Of blockades and in
terruption to all locomotion by the side of
which Dakota blizzard spale into insignifcance.
Then will come the tales of freshets, cyclones,
tornadoes and hurricanes, with frightful &C.
counts Of death, suffering and devastation In
their wake, from which Dakotaians will thank
their stars the great territory has always been
exempt and which, for time will supply the
Munchausenists Of the eastern press with sub
| jects on which to vent their hypocritical SYM
pathies, and Dakota secure rest from their
virile pens.

The weather during the past week has been
rather OF the nondescript character. Sunday
was rather pleasant day. with the mercury
about IS degrees above zero. Monday the sun
rose bright and clear, with every prospect Of a
lovely day, but about 9 o'clock it began to
snow and continued at intervals all day, the
sun shining brightly all the time. Tuesday
morning again opened bright and clear, but
about o'clock snow squall set in, the wind
coming from the northeast. Shortly after it
hauled around to the northwest and regular
blizzard set in, the wind blowing gale, the
air being filled with flying snow, the sun shin
ing brightly and the sky above clear, while
near the ground objects quarter of mile
distant could not be seen. The storm continued
without intermission all Tuesday night and
Wednesday, the wind going down at sunset.
The mercury dropped several degrees below
zero Thursday morning.

One of the most important matters that will
occupy the attention Of the county commis-
sioners at their next meeting is the subject of
bounty for gophers. 1t is to be hoped that
the commissioners will be able to see their way
to offering bounty ut least during the months
of April and May, so that during these two
months war of determination may be waged
against these pests during the breeding season,
which would materially increase the chances
Of the farmer securing the benefits of his la
Dor in sowing crop of wheat. The only OBJ
lection that we have heard urged against the
bounty system is the expense attending it. But
surely it is better to pay out money for exter-
lninatlng the gophers than to let the gophers
destroy crops to the value of three or four
tunes the amount which would be paid out
In some cases the damage by gophers to in-
1ividual farmers has amounted 10 $50 or more.
We do not believe the free distribution of poison
will accomplish the desired result for reasons
which we have heretofore stated. The only
way, in our opinion, to get rid of the gophers
is to offer such an incentive to every man,
woman and child as will induce them to make
it a business to poison trap, shoot, snare or
otherwise kill gophers during certain given
period,
