Show Christmas Week Offers Chance to Predict Weather Weather progmostlcators have found means of forecasting most of the coming year's weather by cocking an eye at the sky during Christmas week. You may Dot believe them, but here are a few of the varied and conflicting beliefs about Christmas weather: If the sun shines through the apple tree on Christmas day, there will be a good crop the Following year. If Ice will bear a man before Christmas, it will not bear a mouse afterward. Thunder and lightning Christmas Christ-mas week means much snow in the winter. Wet causes more damage than frost before than after Christmas. If it snows Christmas night, the hop crop will be good next year. At Christmas meadows green, at Easter covered with frost. If windy Christmas day, trees will bring much fruit. Christmas wet gives empty gTanary and barrel. A green Christmas makes a fat graveyard. A warm Christmas, a cold Easter. Eas-ter. A green Christmas, a white Easter. |
