Mr Lilly's granny usta do everything by the signs. The Farmers Almanac was her "Bible" of sorts when it came to planting, canning, butcherin, etc.
I know for a fact that the hair cuttin thing works. If men get their hair cut when it discourages growth it is longer before they need it again. I never seem to get the guys hair done on those days tho...always the one's that make it grow faster LOL

My almanac had this last one listed on it. Must have gotten the Dakota version.

:wink:

My sister weaned all her kids by the almanac and she said things really went smoothly. We tend to work livestock when help is available, and do the other things when time is available. The thing that affects me is a full moon. Have a hard time sleeping, and am restless. Might have some werewolf in me? :roll: :wink:
