According to farmers who are post
ed in their work the recent cold has
done wonders, and the crops will show
the beneficial effects. Frost is one OF
the greatest factors in preparing ground
for crops, because it tends to hold the
moisture until ine reefs get fine start,
and the contraction and subsequent ex-
pansion break up the earth better than
any plow could do. The frost line now
is down about feet, on an average and
every spear of vegetation or blade OF
grass will fairly shoot into the air when
the time comes.
Up to date very little has been said
OF city politics for the approaching
election The CENSOR is not advised
that thers are any aspirants for the
msyorality. Mayor Smith has served
two terms and if he is like most of his
predecessors he will be mere than desir-
GUS that others should share the respon-
sibilities of the thaokless honor. He
has made most excellent Official III
E. Packard should be retained in the
clerks Office so long as he will consent
to serve. He is competent and prompt
in his official dusies and it is very desir'
able that a clerk should be where be
can be found at all times. Treasurer
Cobb has conducted his Office in care
full and efficient manner, and if he de
81 es will doubtless be renomin ated ano
elected without opposition. Concern.
