JHE Lack4wanna valley weather
prophet, Of Scranton, Pa, disagrees
with the other weather prophets
about the present winter Instead
Of being a severe season. as they
generally predict, it will be a mild
and open winter. Among numerous
reasons for his belief are the follow
ing: ''1'oads still hopping on the
dead leaves in moist places, and
meadow mOles are roofing up little
mounds Of dirt In rich soil-inial-
lible indications Of warm weather for
weeks and Of green Christmas.
The toads sang sixteen days later
than usual. another good sign Of a
mild winter The fur Of skunks and
coons is thinner by half than IL was
a year ago. and that ID another rea-
son why | predict very light snow
