Warm Weather Will Avert Frsshet
Close observers of conditions scent
possible disaster from floods in this
section within the next three weeks
Only q long stretch OF warm weather
without any great quantity Of rain
will avert this, they say. This opinion
lis based upon the fact that everything
freeZable Is frozen and if high temper
atures and heavy precipitation follow
Immediately IN n the heels or rne long
drawn out cold spell, there is bound
to be trouble. Heat and water will
cause turmoil along the river courses
nDw solid from bank to bank with Ice
so heavy that it is sure to cause
much destruction if forced dowr
stream before It has chance t.
melt. Heavy rains cannot be absorbed
by the earth, which is frozen to the
depth Of three feet in this section, &c
the fearsome look for such trouble
and damage unless a spell of milo
weather can get in it's work and cause
a gradual dissolution of the ice letters
that Jack Frost has been binding OF
since the first of the year.
