AMSTERDAM, Jan. 21—"It looks like an early spring," said "Cousin George" Casabonne, weather oracle of the town of Charlton, Saratoga county, as he brought his monthly forecast to the city today. "Robins have been seen around Saratoga and as far north as Saranac Lake, and in the changes of the moon I fail to find anything that looks like a severe snow storm or ex- tremely cold weather." Remarking that it will be only a short time until the ground hog makes his appearance, Mr. Casa- bonne said that he did not fear a contest with the opponent whose ancestors have enjoyed the repu- tation of being the greatest weath- er prognostlcators among the ani- mal kingdom. "I'll put my moon signs up against the ground hog's sun signs any time," said the town of Charl- ton oracle. Most of the storms that will come during the remainder of the Deaths winter will be in the western states, according to Mr. Casabonne. We may get some snow about Jan- uary 25 and at the first quarter of the moon on February 2 we can look for snow squalls, what may be a fairly heavy storm will come on February 10 or a few days be- fore and this will be followed by fair weather until February 17. "Cousin George" is naturally proud of the attention hU weather forecasts are receiving from the newspapers in this section. "Hit the other storm on January 9 pretty close, didn't I?" he chuckled. "What makes me laugh Is the way the big fellows in the game went wrong in predicting a hard winter. Look over the other predictions I gave you and see if I didn't claim It was going to be an open winter. Boys, when you learn to read the moon, you're finding out about the weather from the best source, for moon* don't lie."

n Early Spring Is Forecast By Charlton Weather Seer

"Whereas, The water with Its large content of copper sulphate and chlorine in solution renders the water definitely harmful to the small children and infants, and

"Whereas, The watershed has 143 ] P a r t o r

parcels of property thereon, all in-habitated and all having cesspools and privy vaults which directly contaminate the ground, and

"Whereas, The annual ice har­vest is attended with possibility of serious contamination, and

"Whereas, The lake is shallow, Miller's Cove, Lewis & Smith's Pond and a 40 acre bog all con­nected with the Loughberry reser­voir are rank breeding places for algae, and

"Whereas, The whole pumping equipment is obsolete and worn out and we believe the present water supply with all its objection­able features is a positive handi­cap and menace to the develop­ment of a famous health resort,

"Be It Resolved, That the.Med-leal society of Saratoga Springs go Always an , i n t e r e s t i n g «vent is on record as urgently favoring the ' the annual play by the High adoption of plans by the city coun- School pupils.

AMSTERDAM, Jan. 21—"It looks like an early spring," said "Cousin George" Casabonne, weather oracle of the town of Charlton, Saratoga county, as he brought his monthly forecast to the city today. "Robins have been seen around Saratoga and as far north as Saranac Lake, and in the changes of the moon I fail to find anything that looks like a severe snow storm or ex­tremely cold weather."

Remarking that it will be only a short time until the ground hog makes his appearance, Mr. Casa­bonne said that he did not fear a contest with the opponent whose ancestors have enjoyed the repu­tation of being the greatest weath­er prognostlcators among the ani­mal kingdom.

"I'll put my moon signs up against the ground hog's sun signs any time," said the town of Charl­ton oracle.

Most of the storms that will come during the remainder of the

Deaths

winter will be in the western states, according to Mr. Casabonne. We may get some snow about Jan­uary 25 and at the first quarter of the moon on February 2 we can look for snow squalls, what may be a fairly heavy storm will come on February 10 or a few days be­fore and this will be followed by fair weather until February 17.

"Cousin George" is naturally proud of the attention hU weather forecasts are receiving from the newspapers in this section.

"Hit the other storm on January 9 pretty close, didn't I?" he chuckled. "What makes me laugh Is the way the big fellows in the game went wrong in predicting a hard winter. Look over the other predictions I gave you and see if I didn't claim It was going to be an open winter. Boys, when you learn to read the moon, you're finding out about the weather from the best source, for moon* don't lie."
