on samples of water taken from

that he should not hesitate to use
it for househ Id purposes or per-
nit his family to do SO.
DR.. futile, in his report, which
was certified to before a notary
public, says: "The result of this
examination shows that but three
or four species of bacteria were
present, and that these, with one
exception, are of the com mon
water bacteria universally present
in potable waters. The result Of
these analyses, both qualitative
and cumulative, give no evidences
whatever of sewer contamination
of the Back Spring"

Feb. 15.-Our local weather prophets
told us at the beginning Of last week
winter had broken and the spring
birds with the warm sunshine would
soon bring mild weather. That their
conjectures were not we'll founded
was evidenced by Wednesdays snow
and blizzard. 1t proved one of the
worst storms Of the year, and stock
exposed to it suffered more than at
any time since winter begun.
The much hoped for blowing wealth
er during February has thu, far been
denied us and practically no blowing
for the spring crop has been Gone In
this section. Unless We have an early
spring with very favorable weather
for farm work our farmers will be
much behind with their work, and

kept busy during the coming months.
