Spring Promises After Ice Breaks in Maumee Valley
Observations note low flood danger in Maumee Valley as ice clears from the bay and gorges near Napoleon and Toledo give way. Spring is hinted by robins in trees and open river, while a grim wartime paragraph about U.S. stance on war and peace follows with a caution about Europe and wheat exports. Bowling Green votes to remain dry by 85 majority in a related note. An odd digression on elm wood sawdust as an indigestion cure ends the item with a wooden oats anecdote.
