Wichita. Kan, Sept 3-Joseph H. c.
Swan, 1.-The sage Of the Whitewater"
widely known for his correct forecast
of the st. Louis cyclone and other
meteorological phenomena, makes the
following prediction:
The winter Of 1S96-97 will be very long
and cold, with much snow in all locali-
ties where snow is a factor. Blizzards
will be numerous, highways and rail-
ways will be blockaded, all to be fol-
lowed by much rainfall and high water
most of the year. Do not be in haste
to get in spring crops. Plant large
and late varieties of corn. Wet weather
will be your trouble. Provide good
shelter for self and stock and do not
forget the suffering, hungry and poor
of our land.
