rumination in the cool. rainy weather
which has prevailed during most of
the first half OF June Following a
spring OF average wetness only. but
which seemed a deluge in comparison
with the past dry years. the coolness
OF June has been frowned upon
by many who insist on forecasting the
summer by these few early June days.
But the wise ones are preparing for
the real summer, which can only be
Kept back a little while, and which
may be even more pleasant and warm
by reason OF the GOODNESS now. Since
the Breeze began its work in Casco
Bay We have noticed many years
when warm spring, even as early as
May. presaged the coolest summer
and vice-versa-the cool springs and
the extreme winters were always fol.
