The weather prophet says: "There will be a mild, nn9fttt.iftd winter, with a ereat deal of ' downfall in the shape of snow or "rain. 1 look for - a green Christmas and a mild new vear. Snow will be lato in coming, in many sections me year closing with little on the ground, and very little anywhere. Mild weather will prevail until unusually late, not- withstanding a possible early term ot onnaioWfthla severity, during which. I for a time, the prospect will be that winter is setttnz in unusually early, Open weather with heavy rains in some sections aud but few frosts is likely to continue well into the new year, result- ing in heavy, murky and unhealthy conditions.
