as to the temperature and snowfall of the
coming winter. Prophet Cushman. in a
series Of utterances, made public in The
Star few days ago, stirs up those careless
folk who imagine that the stock of atmos-
pheric frigidity was about used up during
the last cold season by insisting that the
coming winter will be the most severe this
country has experienced since 1888. The
forecast Is based on the more than ordinary
thickness Of the corn husks, the Jagged" in
stead of smooth running Of the hogs melt,
on the goose-bone of May bird, the heavy
crop of nuts and the great stores thereof
that are being laid up by squirrels and
chipmunks, the domesticity of partridges
and woodcock, the U-shaped flight of
ducks moving southwark and the changing
of skin by the green frogs. The Lacka-
wanna valley seer says that the winter
will be unusually mild. He bases his
affirmation on observation to the effect that
toads are still hopping on the dead leaves
in moist places, that these same toads
Sang sixteen days later than usual, that
meadow moles are still roofing up little
mounds of dirt in rich soil, and that the
fur Of skunks and coons Is thinner by half
than 1t was year ago. Decision, when two
impossible; but 1t is safe to conclude that
the temperature will be seasonably chilly
and that the average householder will have
several opportunities to pay some one for
shoveling snow.

the weather itself comes along to settle the
