Predicting a Hard Winter,
The rag weed is tall in the fields this
season. This is considered an infalli-
ble sign of a severe winter. The rea-
son underlying this theory is that this
weed furnishes a food for the birds in
winter, and when it grows abundants
ly tall it means deep snow. Thus
does nature provide beforehand for
what is coming.
