inaugurated a season of severe
winter weather that has largely
aggravated the -already great
destitution and sufferings of the
people of the State of Nebraska.
Throughout a large section of:
that State the drought last Sum.
mer caused almost a total loss of
the corn crop, As a consequence,
where the . animals had not),

forced to sell off their hogs and
ather live stock which they could
aot feed, and forced sales always
