AS TO OUR LATE SPRING.

EDITOR CENSOR: There is much said
about the late spring. There have been
others equally as late. On the 9th of
May, 1861, the settlers of the town of
Union by the aid of SNOW followed and
captured she-bear and three cubs (the
latter being taken alive. In 1865
Good Friday was fine day. and many
sowed their flax and cabbage (for good
luck). This was about the 20th day of
April, and on Easter Sunday the snow
was twenty-five inches deep and the
weather remained cold 1t showed
some on the first day of June and the
trees had not put forth their leaves.
The 10th and 21st day of April, 1874,
there was fail of eighteen inches of
snow. August 22, 1875, was the freeze
that ruined the corn in the valleys. In
1884, there were scarcely any flowers
for decoration and the last of June all
tender vegetables were frozen and the
tender growths of many forest trees
weIe killed. The 22nd of April, 1864,
it showed to the depth of eighteen
inches. On the morning Of the 18th of
May, 1898, it showed until it was visi-
bic on the timber. In 1894, March
was warm but the spring was very
rainy and backward, and on the morn
ing Of July 7th there was i aaa.te frost
that did no damage. The spmg of
1902 was very cold and backward. And
your readers will all remember that on
the 10th of May, 1907, it showed until
the ground was white.
During all these years there has beer
a seed time and harvest: and the grim
reaper has harvested many, many, VERY
many of the pioneers.

THE VERY PROPER SPIRIT.
The Clean Up Sentiment in City VIII
lase and Country.

We like and endorse the cleanup
spirit that pervades Viroqua. We desire
to see it spread to hamlet and country
places. We quote the words of popu-
lar city Journal when it says there is
going to be an unsual amount of work
done this year in Wisconsin cities and
villages, cleaning up the towns. There
is going to be some work done to make
the school grounds look better in cities
and villages and in the country: the
long-neglected little country school
yards are going to get some attention.
1t is not epidemic, yet, this cleaning up
fever, but the time is surely coming
when it will be--for it is catching, +"
and spreads faster than any other
contagious affection. There is no stop
ping it.
One class of people, only, are inn
mune from 1.-THE people who live on
farms, and could, more easily than any
others, clean up about their houses and
other buildings, because they have
more time to do 1t in, one year with
another.
So many of them do actually nothing
to beautify their homes. There are
comfortable frame houses on farms
that are worth $l25 an acre without
any pretension to shade, shrubbery,
flowers, or hedge about them, or a
square yard of green lawn that is mown
and cared for.
In hundred years from now, or
possibly in 200 years, the people will
have got some idea of landscape effects
on their farms. They ought to begin
now. in small wa:, about their houses.
A patch IF green lawn the width of the
house, and extending to the road
fence, " will be good start. Water
to keep it in order can be had with
hardly any cost from the far'n wind
will.

Farmers have just cause in feeling
pessimistic regarding the nay crop sit
uation this spring. There is scarcity
of hay throughout the northwest, and
local dealers are selling baled hay at
SIS per ton, when they have it. Many
farmers are short on this necessity and
have been compelled 70 buy. The con-
tinued cold dry weather makes the 1907
hay crop look anything but promising,
many old clover meadows being report
ed badly killed out. 1t viii be well for
farmers to provide themselves with
corn fodder and millet as a substitute
in order to safely carry them through
next winter
