The Big Sandy news. [volume] (Louisa, Ky.) 1885-1929, 1909-04-23

There is an old superstition that
varies in differen localities that the
first killing frost can be predicted
months ahead from the FIRST sound of
the Katydids. Down in the Ozarks'
where the katydlds are first heard
from about the 7th to the 10th of Jul
ly, they say that the first killing
frost will come in just three months.
As a matter of fact, the first killing
frost does come in that region about
the first week in October. The SUI
rerstition persists in various parts of
the country, but the time assigned
after hearing the first katydid is
longer or shorter according as the To-
cality is north or south.
All Of this may not seem very Sc
rious Investigation for a great govern
ment department but it is interesting
to the scientists, who have enough
Ct dry figures and soil analysis all
the year around. Also it will lift
some weight from the shoulders OF
the suburbanite, for he may feel free
to plant his potatoes in the light Of
the moon If it is more convenient.
