water supply is generally reported suf-

congratulation and every one is highly
pleased that stockmen are to escape the
severe losses which befell them last win

great extremes. Electric storms will
precede and will be followed by severe
cold waves. and the storms will cross the
continent March 7 to IL, March L. to IL.
