AN INTERESTING DIARY OF THE SEA-
SONS IN CENTRE CoUNTY.—The weather is
the one topic of conversation that is always
at the tongue’s end. No matter how dull
one may be or how much at a loss to know
what to talk about when in company it in-
variably happens that the weather comes to
the rescue with a continual offer of food
for discussion.
It is a hore, some people say, to talk
about the weather. And so it might be
under circumstances such as obtain when
people have worn out every other
subject, but to those who give the matter
careful attention, keep an accurate record of
their observations, the subject is one of the
most interesting that can be followed.
There are plenty of amateur weather
prophets who traffic in goose-bone, rag
weed and caterpillar theories and who are
sure that there is going to be falling weath-
er the instant some one’s hair begins to
kink up or another’s joints to ache, but the
really interested observer is the one who
keeps a record of daily weather conditions,
for comparison.
For years Geo. H. Musser, who farms
down in Boggs township, has kept a diary
of his life—and entered the events faith-
fully—with the result that he can tell you
to-day almost everything that has happen-
ed in his life as far back as 1874. There
is one line of observations which he has
given attention to that which undoubtedly
prove interesting to all of our readers;
consequently he kindly consented to com-
pile it for us and you will find it here-
with. It is the time he began to plow, to
sow oats and to plant corn each year. Any
farmer will realize that while the dates set
down by Mr. Musser are the ones on which
he began to work each season, yet they
can be taken as a fair average for all,
because such work usually begins about
the same time for all farmers in a given
locality.
The record shows that the earliest plow-
ing that has heen begun during the last 24
years was March 22nd, in 1891, and
the latest on April 20th, in 1885. The ear-
liest oats seeding was done on April 11th,
in 1889, and the latest on April 29th. in
1875 and 1896. Corn was planted as early
as May 2nd, in 1879, and as late as May
22nd, in 1874.

FosTER’S WEATHER.—My last bulletin
gave forecasts of the storm wave to cross
the continent from the 13th to the 17th,
and the next will reach the Pacific coast
about the 17th, cross the west of Rockies
country by close of the 18th, great central
valleys 19th to 21st, Eastern States 22nd.
Warm wave will cross the west of Rock-
ies country about the 17th, great Central
valleys 18th, Eastern States 2lst. Cool
wave will cross west of Rockies country
about the 20th, great central valleys 22nd,
Eastern States 24th.
Temperature of the week ending 8 a. m.
on March 27th will average about normal
east of the Rockies and below west. Pre-
cipitation for the same period will be below
east of the Rockies and above normal
west.
For the Rocky mountain countries,
Eastern Colorado and Texas my records
are not the best for winter forecasts, and,
therefore, for those districts the forecasts
have been a little defective during the past
winter. But the weather currents change
about April 1st, and then for the sum-
mer months my records will be satis-
factory.
THE ODD FELLOW’S ANNIVERSARY.—
The Pennsylvania Odd Fellows anniver-

miles long. Captain H. S. Taylor, of com-
pany B, will have charge of the army of

charming, as some of the best bands of the
