Clog Almanacs
In early times in England the people
| used what were called clog almanacs,
J which remained in use till the begin
i ning of tho eighteenth century. An old
i writer thus describes them:
"This almanac is usually a square
piece of wood containing three months
; on each of the four edges. The nlim
: ber of days in them arc expressed by
notches, the first day by a notch with
I a patulous stroke turned up from it
and every seventh by a large sized
notch. Over against many of the
notches ahe placed on the' left hand
several marks or symbols denoting the
golden number of cycle of the moon.
The festivals are markod by symbols
of tiie several saints issuing from the
notches.''
Protect the House Wren
I lie rich, bubbling song of the house
wren is one of the sweetest sounds in
country life. If behooves the former's
boy to provide wfon boxes, the en
trances to which are albout, an inch in
diameter, nailing these in the gables of
barns and outhouses and orchard trues.
Grasshoppers, bet'tles, caterpillars, bugs
and spiders are t'he bird's principal
items of food, 'but cutworms, weevils,
ticks and plant life are eaten in largo
quantities.
