WINTER SETS in
in DEAD EARNEST
General Storm Sweeps Over the
Country and Envelops
With White Mantle.
Thousands Of Acres Of Flax
Under the snow-Some
Yet Uncut.

The snow storm that struck>this Sec
ton of country last Thursday appears
to be general only worse in some
places than in others. The storm
moved from the Pacific to the Atlantic.
It was quite severe on the west coast.
Wisconsin and Illinois appears to have
been hit the worst. An account of the
disaster wrought there may be found
on page two.
From six to ten inches Of snow fell
over North Dakota. 1t was driven by
a strong wind on Friday and Saturday
and caused much suffering to stock,
where provision had not been fully
made against winter. No fatalities to
stock have been reported. This is one
of. the severest snow storms that has
ever been experienced in this section in
November. It reminded US somewhat
of storms experienced in January and
February, the time that zero weather
sets in.
There are thousands of acres of flax
underneath the snow. There is little
in this county compared to farther
north where harvest is from two to
four weeks behind the season here.
Some of the flax is still uncut. much
is lying in rows in the field as left by
the binder, and some is in the stack.
The threshing crews have disbanded,
and very little more threshing will be
done now until spring.

Free Bulletins.

Under the provisions of the McClel-
Ian bill. requiring county auditors to
furnish the taxpayers Of their respec-
tive counties with a list Of bulletins
available for distribution, it is neces-
sary to explain that the several editions
are readily exhausted; in fact, the pub
lication department will be exhausted
of all numbers long before applications
cease tos come in. : It would be far bet
ter for farmers desiring the bulletins
to send in their names and addresses
with the request that they be placed on
the bulletin list. In this way, all bull
letins will be readily supplied as pubs
lished.
Under the present system, it is im-
possible to know in advance how large
an edition Of any particular bulletin to
publish. Furthermore, farmers should
receive bulletins as published and save
them for future reference instead of
sending in once a year for bulletins
they desire.

Res olutions Of Respect.

Mr.. r. o. Smith:
Dear Brother, Wife and Family
Whereas it has pleased Our Heavenly
Father to remove from your home
your beloved son, to, we believe, q home
where parting never comes. We, the
members Of Oakes Lodge No. 40 /. o.
@. 4. desire to o5express to you our sim
5cere sympathy in your affliction. There
are many mysteries in Gods dealing
with His children which are not easily
understood in this life. We feel that
the consolation we extend cannot soothe
the, aching heart, but we trust that
you and your dear family may be sus-
tanned in this hour Of sorrow BY the
Holy Spirit Of Him Who doeth all things
well. May the riches and comfort Of
divine grace and consolation Of the
Gospel come with sustaining power to
you all IN your sad bereavement, is our
earnest prayer. i4;s

Mr.. Klein is the senior member of

in and about the city. He is president
of the Building and Loan Association
and of the Oakes Commercial Company,
and is very favorobly known in this
vicinity. He is also largely interested
in grain and cattle raising, the firm Of
