The Rev. Irl R. Hicks
1912 Almanac
Before the great Drouth of lyoi.
the Hicks Almanac gave timely
warning. For over two years
prior to 1911, the Hicks Almanac
again sounded a warning of drouth
and danger. And so for fort)
years this same friend of all the
people has steadfastly refused the
offers of speculators and contin-
ued to warn the public of the
coming dangers of storm and
weather. As they should have
done, the people have nobly stood
by Professor Hicks, their faithful
public servant, who has grown
old in their service. Send only

turbs him is the call three times
a day to banquet of mince pies
and other luxuries. It is a mis-
take. The farmer begins to work
long before the sun thinks of get

in gloom he proceeds to soften
his boots with a sledge hammer.
He then takes a lantern and shov -
els his way to the barn to feed the
h'ogs. It, is then time to feed the
newly arrived calf, which seemed
to delight in butting a pail of milk
over the tiller of the soil. He

the snow, cleans out the stable,
chases a pig worth 25 cents tom
miles and does not catch it. doe-
