WINNIPEG,
May
21:
The
Weather
Man
played
a
practical
Joke
on
the
prairies,
today.
While
Winnipeg
sweltered
under
a
hot
sun
and
a
temperature
of
70,
Edmonton
citizens
awoke
to
find
a
spring
blizzard
with
four
inches
of
snow
driven
by
a
40-mile
gale.
From
the
Peace
River
to
the
south
of
Red
Deer,
the
storm
was
general,
dislocating
telephone
and
telegraphic
services.
Forecasts
are
that
the
cold
weather
will
move
eastward
tonight
and
to
Manitoba
on
Thursday.
No
crop
damage
is
expected
in
Alberta
as
the
snow
formed
a
protecting
blanket.

This
Year
The
Fair
Board,
at
its
meeting
last
night,
W.
IL
Sherman
presiding,
decided,
on
recommendation
of
the
prize
book
committee,
to
have
an
innovation
this
year.
They
are
offering
prizes
of
$20,
$10
and
$5
for
the
best
display
of
flowers
to
be
made
on
six
feet
length
of
table,
artistic
arrangement
as
well
as
quality
of
the
flowers
to
count.
As
the
tables
are
about
six
feet
wide
this
will
give
each
exhibitor
about
six
feet
square.
Should
there
be
a
number
of
entries
it
is
thought
this
floral
display,
will
be
one
of
the
great
features'
of
the
floral
exhibit.
Probably
exhibits
may
come
from
Hazelton,
where
the
Horticultural
Society
is
a
live
institution
and
where
it
is
claimed
they
grow
better
flowers
than
at
any
point
on
the
railway.
At
any
rate
there
should
be
keen
rivalry
between
the
different
points
and
Prince
Rupert
will
also
expect
to
have
a
number
of
exhibits
in
this
class.
