PRAIRIE DOGS PREPARE
FOR WET WEATHER

That there will be ample
rainfall this spring in this sec
ton is the prediction. OF John"
Oliver. an old timer. who has
studied weather signs in this
locality for 90 years. He bases
this prediction on the actions
of the prairie dogs. who are
sure prophets, he claims.
For many years I have no.
ticed that the prairie dogs are
the wisest little fellows about
the weather. he said. This
year, right now. they are mould
ing up the dirt around their
holes to carry off the rain and
prevent its running in. 1 no.
ticed last year at this time that
they did not do this, but left the
earth level. and said: Wen
have a dry year Sure enough
we did. This is a sign of a wet
spring; it never fails"
