Frost Six Feet Deep, and Still Snowing.

There are place where winter gripped harder and held on longer than in this portion of Indiana. Fof instance, Martin L. Pass, a former resident, writing to The Republican from Ivester, lowa, under date of April 9th, to renew his subscription, and remarking that every paper seems like a visitor from home, also adds: “Jack Frost is holding his grip pretty well in this country, graves six feet deep scarcely get through the frost, while on the sth inst. we had a snow that covered the ground, but it was gone by night, it thaws very slow. On Equinox day the wind was in a -northerly quarter all day and according to ‘ye olden sine’ we will have cool weather until June 21st.” When you want a good binder and mower buy the Deering. Before you buy your binder twine examine the Deering twine. Pure Manila guaranteed 650 feet to the pound, not about 650, but guaranteed 650. L. 8. Renicker, asent
