  1. (continued from previous page)
    If the sun sets red in the west it is a sign of fine weather. If the sun is very dark or cloudy the next day is supposed to be wet
    If the weather turns bad with the new moon it is generally bad for the quarter If the sky is very stary the next day is supposed to be good.
    If the clouds are dull rain is coming. If the wind bloos from the south we are going to have rain.
    The northern wind brings a storm. The eastern wind brings the snow. The western wind also brings rain. If the robin sits gay on the top of the tree then we will have a fine day. If he goes cold under the tree we will have rain
