The weather ia a topic much discussed
but never exhausted ; but the patietico of
every oue la exhausted looking for good
weather. Since Winter set lu we have
had nothing but bad weather-sleet, rain?
freezes and mud-until the roada have
become almost Impassable, and farmers
are getting boblnd VT 1th their work. Not
a furrow bas been run alncetbe new year
came in, and we hear manyTanners com
plaining that they did not get through
sowing wheat. Home did not get any sown
at all, aa they were tinny picking cotton
and preparing the land for -owing until
the bad weather came. Now the query
ia : Is it too late to HOW when tbs soil ?ceta
dry enough ? which will not be for tm
daya yet, even if lt stops raining now.
Wo have beard a few say they have made
good crops of wheat from grain sown In
February, but aJinit tbat lt la better to
sow earlier, if impossible.
Bad colds and grippe are epidemic.
Nearly every family ic this section have
one or more cases, sud the doctors are

grandmother, and 1B not a respecter of
