John Cook takes the cake this
year. He reports that old neighbor-

in his yard this morning, the Invest
stuffed bird that one ever did see.
We have been wondering for some
time where that robin had gone to,
but now it seems that Mr.. Cook
has had it sequestered all this time
to bring it out ahead of early birds
around this section. Our California
and Louisiana friends will please
take notice that the air is balmy and
the robins are chirping, and flowers
are blooming lin the house, right in
January. This is a pretty good
country to live in. We are much
obliged to Mr.. Cook for bringing
out the robin.-Leader.

Minneapolis, Jan. 5.-The first re-
ports of how coalless North Dakota
stood the cold wave, which has just
swept over the northwest, are re-
ceived in Minneapolis and show that
the suffering was great. Thursday the
temperatures in the North Dakota re-
gi0n averaged In the 20's below. Many
towns along the Great Northern road
which have no coal tell stories of citi-
Zens being forced to remain in their
beds to keep warm, and of burning
up fences and outhOuses to make the
temperature of their homes bearnble.
blizzard Might Mean Catastrophe.
Farmers in the entire North Dakota
district, after feeding their stock aban-
dohed their homes and went to the
towns. where they could place their
families III comfort in the hotels. At
the railroad offices in st. Paul the
freight department heads said they
are doing their best to get coal to the
towns along the North Dakota line of
the Great Northern. The weather hu-
reau holds cut hope of warmer weather
for the Dakotas. The railroads admit,
however. that blizzard might mean
death Tor many persons in North Da-
kOta
