West Virginia argus. [volume] (Kingwood, W. Va.) 1877-1946, 1890-02-13

The mild weather in Tho early part or
winter during the past two seasons, has
led many to suppose that the Gulf
stream, whose influence upon the wealth
er is considerable, is approaching nearer
70 the Atlantic shore The photographic
bureau Of the Navy Department is max
ing efforts TO discover whether or not this
IS true, and captains Of Atlantic vessels
are being asked TO take observations Of
the temperature as they cross the ocean.
The influence Of the Gulf stream proba-
bly, does not extend west Of the Rocky
Mountains, however, and the present
winter has been unpreccdontedly warm
ne far west and north as Lake Superior.
Some other influence is probably causing
the change.

Our farmers are distressed on Il c
question Of saving meat.
The weather still continues un.
favorable for killing and saving
meat, and many Of our Farmers who
had figured ON the prnht that would
accrue frorr raising their own hogs,
are now casting woeful glances on
the other side of the balance sheet
and wondering if we will ever have
enough frost to save bacon and stop
the drain on the corn-crihs. Those
who failed to take advantage Of
the tht. cold snap in November have
their meat cost them about as much
as they would have had to pay for
it at time prices, AID n considerable
