reading of local weather conditions.
The weather here in the past few
Gays has been "all that could be ex-
pected." The temperature has
ranged close to IS degrees for Sew
eral days. Wednesday morning
snow fell for several hours, but dill
not remain very long on the ground.
Cold, biting winds have pre-
vailed, making things decidedly
unpleasant for those compelled to be
outdoors.
Yesterday about noon snow began
to. fall and soon assumed the pro-
portions of blizzard. The ground
being frozen, was soon covered to a
depth of about three inches, making
an excellent covering for the grow

ORDER OF OLD

Like leaf from the history Of the
world-war comes an order recently
issued by County Judge George Bat
terton. 1t sounds like the strenuous
days when the "take- it-easy" people
were shaking in their shoes. for fear
they would be compelled to really
work.
An account of the decline in to-
bacco prices and all farm products,
and The consequent reduction in
wage scales by the farmers, mary
1aborers have refused to work, es-
pecjally the colored men. Judge
Batter ton fas issued an order warn
ing ull loafers in the county that
they will be arrested, and will be
put to work for the county. He
states the order Will be strictly en-
forced by the county authorities. A
similar enforcement will be carried
out by the city authorities.
The matter is one for individual
settlement, it seems. If the laborer
does not want to work for starva-
ton wages can the law compel MIN
to do so?
