and invariably came the answer. "Ruined,"
 A heavy frost and a freeze last night made a majority of the vegetables look sick today, and the owners of the gardens felt the same way.
 The government thermometer here showed a minimum temper ature of 30 degrees, and besides big heavy frost, there was con- siderable ice, and such tender vegetables as beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, okra, etc, will practi- cally all have to,be planted over. Corn land Irish potatoes, were badly nipped, but will come out again, while onions, English peas, cabbage, lettuce, mustard and radiSheS were not hurt.
 All day yesterday a stiff, cold wind blew, and snow fell in many parts of the state. The highest temperature reached during the day was 43 degrees, and as night aODrOached if beoan tO tl1rn cold CT. There was much apprehen- sion and quite a number of our people covered up their plants, but high wind and a cloudy sky lent assurance and a majority took the risk.
 There seems no abatement to the cold weather, and tonight may finish the havoc.

 However, after leaving Hope, the Pathfinder struck some rough roads and suffered a bent axle, which delayed them sever al hours about five miles north of Fulton.

W. (. T. U. Notes

We all rejoice that the capitol city-Lincoln, Nebraska-voted dry" again with a majority of nearly thousand. Mayor Love came out in convincing state ment that in the first campaign many voted for prohibition for moral reasons but that the bene- fits were so great during the reign of no saloons that mG ny voted this time for prohibition as well as moral reasons.
 When bank deposits increase by the millions, when mercha s sell from 30 to 50 per cent mul t goods and when butchers sell more meat under a prohibition reign than when under license it is not strange that people choose the former. When one thousand more children enter school in a given city, like they did in Kan sas, City Kansas, when the pro- hibition law is enforced, it is a mighty strong argument against license and mighty potent one for prohibition.
