The Irl R.Hjcks 1901 Almanac.
Wbatever may be said of thj scienti-
fic causes upon which the Rev. Irl R
Flicks bases his yearly forecast* of
storm and weather, it is a remarkable
fact that specific warnings of every
great storm, flood, cold wave and
drouth, have been plainly printed in his
now famous Almanac for many years,
The latest startling proof of this fact
was the destruction of Galveston Texas
on the Very (lay named by Prof. Hieks
in his 1900 Almanac, as one of disaster
by storm all along the gulf coasts. The
1901 Almanac, by far the finest, most
complete and beautiful yet published
