- (continued from previous page)weather will follow. A good day will follow a very red sun-set. When there is a blue spot in the centre of a mass of black clouds bad weather is expected.
Good weather follows the following signs, when the crane flies over the land, when the swallow flies high, and when a fog is to be seen rising from the river. Those signs are still used by the old people of the locality and they never heed the weather forecast on the radio each morning. They believe there is nothing like the old customs.
