| A nice, killing frost was visible
Monday and Tuesday mornings, with
ice about a quarter Of an inch thick.
! Yesterday morning 1t was quite
frosty but no ice was reported. Now
that practically all of the fruit has
been killed, we may look for some
warmer weather One man suggest
this morning that the only fruit We
would have this year would be hen
fruit.

ling on a large scale. He says the
season is very backward there and

as ii might. With warm weather,
however, il is thought the great
northwest will produce as great a
small grain crop this year as it has
in years past.

prompt action on the part Of those

for the fire department to be called

thrown a match on pile of waste
that was saturated with oil. Water
and chemicals were used to extin-
guish the blaze before any damage
resulted.
