Montrose and others in 1903 as fol

Burlap sacks represent real money

rips are well worth mending.
Most hens will lay if they are
allowed to; many successes with chicl :

Signs Of Weather Chances.

If horse is lively without apparent
cause, 1t is sure sign of cold weather
in the near future, but If he stretches
out his neck and shifts it Is a sign of
rain. If IA cat sneezes or sits with its
back to the fire 1t will rain. If she
washes her face during frost it will
soon thaw. If she scratches the wall
or the leg Of table vigorously the
wind will he very high. If asses bray
it is another sign OF rain.
