OLD Hicks Almanac. PEOPLE. R. Hicks predicts five storm periods ia this month, the first being from the 2nd to the 16th, the second from the 7th to the 12th, the third from the 14th to the 16th, the fourth from the 18th to the 23rd and the fifth from the 24th to the 27tb. Now if the great almanac maker will see to it that these predictions are verified he will do our armers a great favor. There are a great many people in these parts who haye more faith in Rev. Hicks than they have In the most of modern prophets. Certain it is that storms have been known to come at about the time when he predicted they would come. But it is just as certain that storms have not come in this part of the country when he said they would. We have published the dates he has set out for the current month so that our readers can watch how near they come to fulfillment. But it is not at all unlikely that there will be quite a difference of opinion among our readers as to how near these predictions come to fulfillment. Rev.
