VIN|TA IN GRASP
OF SEVERE STORM
Ground Hog is Base Deceiver-Aeav-
lest Snow Of Year Fell Last
Night and Today.

There are those in Vinita today,
who are mean enough to aver that one
ground hog is a deceitfuI and mali
cious fabricator It is said that he
deceived a number Of the good people
Of Vinita into making preparations
for the spring garden, buying oxfords
and clothing of the usual Easter
weight, and then allowed the weather
man to hand them this beautiful snow
storm, with a temperature low en-
ought to cause mere man to seek the
warmth of his fire side-and then
"cuss' the gas man. If some people
that the Chieftain has conversed with
today could lay hands on one diminu-
tive but pestiferous animal known as
the ground hog that gentleman would
be despatched with little compunction.
The snow storm that now envelops
this vicinity is the worst of the win
ter. The temperature, however, is not
as low as it was during the storm
Of December and the early part Of
January. The snow began falling
sometime during the night. and has
been, except for a cessation early this
morning, increased in fury all day. AtI
three O'Clock this afternoon there was
a fall of about four inches, which
is unusual for this latitude.
The spring-like weather thar has
prevailed here for the last week, broke
about noon yesterday, when a stiff
gale from the north began blowing.
Tie temperature fell rapidly until
apout eight O'Clock this morning, at
which time the thermometer register
ed eighteen above. The falling snow
has caused the temperature to rise a
little today, but it is expected that
the mercury will be around the zero
mark again before Thursday morn
ing.
The storm is general all over the
west and is expected to extend to the
Atlantic coast, reaching there the last
Of this week.
With Easter Sunday, but little
more than month off, this is expect |
ed to be the last severe storm of the
winter, and when il has passed pre-
parations forthe spring planting VIII

ARKANSAS EXPECTS
BUMPER FRUIT CROP

Fort Smith, Ark, Feb 16.-Every
condition is ideal for a bumper fruit
crop in this section this year. The
night temperatures have held steadily
at level low enough to hold back
the budding and prevent damage by
premature development Within 60
days the buyers from the northern
centers will flock into Fort Smith by
scores getting lines on the strawberry
crop which is always ready to move
early In May. The extent of this crop
may be appreciated when 1t is stated
that the average shipments per year
reach 700 cars.
The peach growers are buisly en-
gagged now in trimming and spraying
their trees which came through the
winter in fine condition, and are not
ably free from insect pests and blight.
A large portion Of the peach crop is
sold on the trees to buyers for the
northern and eastern fruit distributing
centers. It is predicted that the peach
crop this year will reach 1000 cars
from this point, if no untoward condi-
lions develop later in the fruit season.
