Says North Dakota Weather Was Better Than Indiana’s.

Mrs. Bert Welsh writes as follows, from Larrimore, N. Dak: “I thought perhaps that you would •like to know how the weather man is serving North Dakota while Indiana is having such a siege of bad weather. Last Sunday when you had a snowstorm, here it was a beautiful spring day, people out without wraps and Monday and Tuesday were warmer still. Friday we had a shower, the first storm since the big snow two weeks ago. It lasted- about three hours and this morning (Sat.) people were making garden again. Some had. gardens made before the big snow and all are planting now. The majority of the farmers have their, oats in and the wheat fields are getting green. They look for a splendid harvest this fall. The fruit is considered by some to be hurt but others think it wasn’t far enough advanced to be hurt to a great extent. They raise strawberries, raspberries, gooseberries and currants principally. Meat costs no more here than in Rensselaer nor do eggs and butter but flour is higher and a few other things also. Trusting this brief account may be of interest, I am still a friend of old Indiana’s.”
