Early Day Weather Freaks.

In speaking about the ideal weather prevailing last ‘Thursday after the heavy frost with freezing tempera+ ture, Ferdinand Ahrens well known farmer of four miles east of Kendallville grew reminiscent. “On April 1€ 1875, there was a heavy snew fall” said Mr. Ahrens “and we were able to use our bob sleds. From six tojeight inches of snow fell. and remained with us for several days. That year we had an unusually early spring and most all of the early crops had been planted. The buds of the trees were just ready to burst open and mose of the fruit was destroyed. In those days we used to have hard winters, snow- would come early and remain with us until spring.” y

Pipes Plugged With Sand.

After the council meeting Thursday evening the members of the official body paid the municipal water station a visit. 1 ‘They found that sand ‘in the big well had risen from the bottom. of the well and was being drawn inte the service pipes supplying the big pump. The valves in the pump have been ground out by the sand and will have to be replaced. g Water stands in the big well to a depth of twelve feet and it is believed i will have o be all pumped out before the trouble can be corrected. It is a big job. .
