WILL THE 1912 WINTER Bl
A HARD ONE?

Eight degrees below zero was the
record for the morning of November %.
This does not look m UGH like the Indian
summer weather that Foster had pre-
dicted for November, but there are those
who still contend that North Dakota il
to have a mild winter, a long open
spell. They tell US that the eophers
show no signs of alternating and that
the jack rabbits maintain their summer
color of brown. etc.
Most people fear the 1911-12 winter is
to be an unusually severe one. Snow
came early and it has been very cold so
far in November, contrary to the usual
order of things in this country. Far
mers have been greatly Inconvenience
and many still have unthreshed grain,
and a few have fields of flax that have
not been cut.
The growers of cattle and sheep are
also complaining. They say that while
the quantity of the hay crop was all
right, the continued wei weather during
the late summer and the fall injured
the quality to a great extent. On top
of mis-. deep snow has made grazing for
stock poor in a great many parts of the
Bad Lands. Several growers of cattle
have become alarmed the past two
weeks over the outlook and a number
have rounded up cattle and shipped
them to market. Twelve carloads were
loaded at Belfield on Wednesday for the
Chicago market. These cattle came
from the range in Billings county, and
the owners reasoned that they had rather
take the present market prices than
attempt to winter their herds, mourning
the chances of heavy losses before
spring. Some of these livestock growers
have in mind the hard winter of
1867 when many stockmen lost practi-
cally everything. Of course in the early
eighties our cattlemen did not think of
putting up any hay for stock. whereas
the conservative growers of these days
all have large stacks Of hay in their
feed lots. Nevertheless. cattlemen still
depend to a greater or less extent upon
winter grazing for stock.
From the standpoint of The farmers.
generally speaking. the outlook is all
right. The ground was moist during
the fall and froze early, and the five
or six inches of snow on the ground at
this season of the year aueurs we'll for
the 1912 crops.
