Old Fanner: I m planning to
"set" a sundial in my garden I have
heard if should be done on June 21st If
so, how do I proceed 7 AG, Jackson, Miss
Take our advice and don’t do any figuring at
all about this thing If you want a sundial in
your garden, plant it and let it go at that We
had one once We were told to set it on fune
21st, just before midnight, with 12 o clock
pointing due west by compass we did it all
and the thing lost two hours in less than a
day
