Hicks' Forecast+ For September.
A iteactionary Storni Period runs
from the 22nd to the 'lath. This per-
iod will tint come to its full culmina-
tion before the time of New Moon on
the 25th. Low barometer and threat-
ening weather will appear perhaps
with storms, before that date, but the
temperature will keep up, and storm
conditions will intensify until after
the' Lith. Indeed, the Moon being on
the celestial equator on the 20th, sev-
ere electrical storms on and touching
that date may bridge the interval and
cause a continuance of storm condi•
tions into the last period of the month.
The lath is the centre of another seis-
mic period of about five days.
