Hicks Weather Forecasts for March,
We publish below from Word and Works the
Hicks weather forecasts for next month:
"a reactionary storm period has its center
on the Sd, 4th and 9Th. A continued spell of
unsettled, Mercurial weather will most prob
ably come over from the close of February, but
about the 4th to 9th storm conditions will be
quickened and decided areas of rain, sleet and
snow will spread progressively from west to
east across the country. The opposition ofthe
planet Jupiter with earth and sun, February
28th, is a most important factor in storms and
all terrestrial phenomena for at least two weeks
before and after that date. Look for high ba-
rometer and cold wave close on the heels of
storms of this period. Don't be surprised If
billiards sweep the north and west not far
from the 4th, 9th and 9th. The 4th to the 9th
also constitutes decided seismic period, hav-
ing its center on the 9th.
IA regular storm period extends from the
9Th to the 18th, central on the 10Th. This IS
exactly coincident with the annual crisis OF
solar magnetic pertubations. Low barometer
and electrical storms will begin IN western

18th, storms Of marked force will be natural in
most parts of the country moving. Of course, in
regular order from west to east. High harom-
eter and bliZZardous gales from the northwest
will wind up this period, bringing change to
much colder to most parts Of the country.
"a reactionary storm period is central on the
18th, 10th and 18th. This period leads directly
into the Venus period, combined with the
growing Mars disturbances, and near the center
of Earth's equinox. The character of storms
and weather at this time is problematical, as
the Mars influence will begin to dominate the
elements and it cannot be positively foreseen
which way its influence will turn. In any
event, the storm days will show an excess of
perturbations-that is, storms OF rain, thunder
and wind, or of snow and boreal winds will be
of very decided character. We believe that the
latter will prevail, and that the Mars influence
about this time will set winter pace which
will characterize the weather generally farlnto
April.
ga regular storm period is central on the
21st, covering the 10Th to the 23d. This is alec
at the center of the vernal equinox and the 2lst
the moon is both in perigee and on the celestial
equator. A phenomenally low barometer,
great humidity and high temperature will be
warning of violent storms anywhere from Fri
day, 18th, to Tuesday, 23d, notably on Sunday,
Monday and Tuesday. Dist, 22d and 23d. In all
probability this period will first bring storms

winds and possible tornadoes to the southwark,

snow. This period, 18th to sd, constitutes the
most marked seismic period OF the month. II
a decided wintry aspect does not attend and
follow the storms of this period the remainder
of the Mars period will probably bring wealth

will foreshadow. in large degree, what may
be expected far into April.
"a reactionary storm period is central on the
9th, 18th and 10Th, with the moon at hrsl
Quarter and extreme north declination. On
account of the prevailing periods OF Venus
earth and Mars, there will be constant tendency
to storms and unsettled weather all through
