Forecast for November.-The Union
News private weather detective did not hit it
exactly on the first frost, but he is chuckling
because he came five days closer to it than
Br'er Hicks and was only three days wrong,
while the st. Louis prophet was eight days
from the mark. Incidentally, Bolgiano hasn't
been heard from since his September predic-
ton of prolonged dry weather effectually broke
the drought Also, it may be noted that no
one hereabouts has seen any thing of the warm,
wet spell that was to last from October "a to
%, according to Rev. Hicks.
For the first two days of November Mr..
Hicks predicts cloudiness and rain, with stiff
north westerly winds and colder weather closely
following. A Venus" storm is scheduled for
the period from November to 8, with danger
Gus gales over the lake regions, electrical
storms in tho South and sleet and snow in the
Northwest. Get your corn husked before this
period The reaction, which will extend from
November IL to H. will bring unseasonably
warm weather with general storms Earth
quakes will be in order within three dave of
noon on November IL, thus giving six days to
verify a prediction of something that is of
almost daily occurrence in some portion of
our globe Mr.. Hicks says that you may bet
your most intimate underwear that rising tenn
Derature will always attend a new moon, and
he says it is also safe gamble that when the
new moon falls on or very close to the celestial
equator in a Venus period and in a storm
period there will be thunder and lightning.
So, all you have to do is to watch the moon,
Venus and the celestial equator.
The usual northwesterly winds and colder
weather will follow this storm, giving way to
Irregular" storm, which will extend from
November 16 to 20. This" says the prophet,
sis period in which Boreas will make stub
born fight for domination in most parts of the
northern hemisphere Early billiards. of snow
and sleet need not surprise any reader of these
forecasts in north and northwest before the
final windup of this storm period. These
storms will be followed closely by a rushing
high barometer out of the northwest. causing
high gales and unreasonable cold to push
rapidly far into the south and east Many
heavy ocean storms will be encountered, both
on the Atlantic and Pacific, during this and
other November periods. Make it your bust
ness to watch the telegraphic reports from land
and sea, through all this part of the month,
and see if this forecast is not verified to de-
gree out of the ordinary. If your farm and
orchard and garden products are not safely
storms, you will suffer great discomfort and
heavy loss. The sailors who dare to brave the
open lakes will do so at the peril of their ships
and lives. Ask your maritime friends to make
a note of this gentle reminder 80
Restless and threatening weather, with fitful
gusts of rain, cold winds and occasional sleet
and snow squalls will mark the 'reactionary"
storm period. which will extend from that
Boreal outburst to Thanksgiving, which holt
day will be quite cold. Another regular
storm, with rain and snow, will sweep across
the country from west to east during the last
few days of November. Another earthquake
period extends from November 25 to 49, says
Mr.. Hicks.
