AND
OUR WEATHER
By Prof. G. r. Petite

Tn our forecast of November 10, we
were limited as TO time and space on
account of the volume. Of other mat
ter. including the election returns, SO
made bv article as brief as possible
naming the II, II and oath and 10Th
as centres of disturbance all of which
brought storms or the changes of
temperature over most of the coun-
try, near those. dates, with a nice fall
of snow here the 10Th.
It is also interesting to note the
Hicks Almanac speaking of the quadi-
allure of Neptune upon the 18th was
liable to produce great seismic phe-
nomena which come in Chile, 18th
and 14th.
The centres of storm periods for
December will arrive about the 5th,
18th, 18th, 23rd and 28th. We looked
for good weather mostly for Noven-
Der and we still believe we will not
have severe winter weather in De-
cenber, and that we will have consid-
cradle mild weather.
By the 10th we shall have our sup
ply of the 1928 Hicks Alnanacs which
can be got by mail Or calling at the
office of the Producers News, for so
cents. This will include the local ap-
plications or Interpretation by Prof.

the whole years
We shall also begin a series Of in

BUTLER NOMINATED
TO SUCCEED JUS
TICE VIM. R. DAY
ST. PAUL MAN, DEMOCRAT, NAM
ED BY PRESIDENT HARDING
FOR SUPREME BENCH.

Washington, Nov. 26.-The nomina-
ton of Pierce Butler, st. Paul, Mimi,
to be associate justice of the supreme
court Of the United States, to succeed
VIM. R. Day, Of Ohio, resigned. was
sent by President Harding today to
the senate. Mr.. Butler is practicing
attorney of st. Paul, SIS years of age,
and Democrat.
Mr.. Butler was admitted to practice
before the supreme court on May rs,
1894, and since then frequently has
appeared before that bench in the
argument of important cases, includ-
ing the Minnesota rate cases, in 1912,
decided by Justice Hughes. The ap-
pointment will restore to the bench the
political equation which existed when
Justice Clarke resigned. He, a demo
crat, was succeeded by Justice Suth-
erland, a Republican, but by selecting
a Democrat to succeed Justice Day,
Republican, the court will again stand
six Republicans and three Democrats.
1t was stated today in court circles
that Chief Justice Taft gave the pres
ldent an unstinted recommendation of
Mr. Buffers qualifications when the
chief executive adcised him that Mr..
Butler was being considered for the
vacancy. Senator Kellogg, Republi-
can, Minnesota as well as others also
gave the present praise of MI. But
ler's abilities as lawyer.
Several progressive groups are pro-
testing the selection of Mr.. Butler as
a member Of the Supreme bench on
the ground that he has served as al
corporation attorney a number Of
times and it is questionable how he
will perform.
