Hicks for April.

The storm period central the
last week In March will extend
up to April 2, with storms of
wind and rain, followed by snow
and much colder. From 18th to
9th change will occur with a
warmer temperature, rain and
wind storms, changing to a sud-
den drop in temperature, with
hail stones probable. Another
regular storm period may be ex-
pected central the 10th, with a
high temperature, low barometer,
rain, hail and thunder storms
crossing the country from west
to east, with a probable rapid
change to cooler. A sudden re-
action to warmer with thunder
storms and hail and tornado dis
turbances is likely in many places
where the temperature may be
high and the humidity excessive.
From the 10Th to the 23d look out
for a low barometer, excessive
heat with vicious thunder and hail
storms, and in many localities
dangerous winds, with excessive
rains in many places probable.
This will rapidly change to colder
with frosts general over the CEN
trail and northern and severe
snow squalls in many localities.
From the Goth to the 29th very
general and severe storms are
probable, with abnormal down.
pours of rain and hail storms sue
ceeded by a rapid change to cold
er, with frosty nights over many
sections.

Gas

How many people, when buy

How many people, when buy
ing gas engines stop to consider
complications? There are few
If they would only investigate
the different makes before de-
Gliding on the purchase, there
would be fewer repair shops
over the land. A spring here
and q gear there, and loaded
down with a lot Of inventions,
most people say, "That must be
a god engine" Well, they buy it.
In a little while, to keep it 60
ing, they commence to tinker,
and the more time and money
spent the more she gets out Of
whack. When they realize that
it takes an expert to do anything
with it. Now if they had only
bought a simple engine, one that
would not run because it did not
have a lot Of fixtures, they could
have avoided the expense and
delay.
Our advice to you is not to
overlook the "Stouer" when you
are thinking of buy ing an engine,
as we can prove to you that it is
the simplest engine built, and we
feel satisfied that it will give you
but very little trouble. Repair
shops all hate the Stoner," as it
gives them but little work.
