Prorerbs Perfain,'l1 to the First Month Of

The following proverbs relating to the
month of December have an interest to many
aud doubtless some will be curious enough
TO watch whether the predictions are Yeri-
fed:
Bearded frost is the forerunuer of rain.
If the fences and trees are covered with
white frost expect thaw.
New moon far in the north, cold weather
for two weeks.
Excessive twinkling of the stars indicates
very heavy SHOWS.
Corn is as comfortable under snow as an
old man under his fur cloak.
II it SHOWS on Christmas night the crops
will do well.
So far as the sun shines on Christmas day
So far will the snow blow on May
When the snow falls dry It means to lie,
But fakes light and soft bring rain oft.
When now in the ditch the snow doth lie,
'Tis waiting for more bye and bye.
II the snow tn at falls during the winter is
dry and is blown about by the wind a dry
summer will follow; very damp snow indi-
Gates rain in the spring.
There will be as many snow storms during
the season as there are DAYS remaining in
the month after the time OF the first snow.
Heavy SHOWS in winter favor the crops of
the following summer.
heavy fall of snow indicates good year
for crops and light fall the reverse
II much snow be spread on the mountains
in winter the season of planting will be made
blue with verdure.
Snow is the poor mans fertilizer and good
crops will follow a winter of heavy snow
fall
Cut SNOWFALL In halves; II it is wet inside
