RAIN FALLS DECEMBER
Weather Astonishes Oldest Pioneers
Farmers Doing Their Flowing

Bemidji's reputation as an ideal
summer resort is given still another
boost by the fact that on December
first trees are budding and even the
lilac bushes show signs of bursting
into bloom. Yesterday several plea
sure trips were taken on Lake Be-
midi, something never before heard
of in the history of the city.
Trees in the school house yard are
budding. Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Ham
mond and two daughters, Maybell
and Helen, accompanied by MI. and
Mrs. M. LaFontisee made a trip
across the lake. While there was thin
ice on the lake it did not interfere
with the trip. This morning Lake Be
midi was covered with athin layer
of ice.
One Bemidji man said that he had
lived in Minnesota for 81 years but
that this is the first winter that he
ever saw it rain on the first day Of
December.
Farmers in the vicinity of Bemidj
are preparing their land for spring
seeding and many of them will have
their blowing entirely done before
the soil freezes to hard to work.
