NATURE'S WEATHER WARNINGS [To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.] Sin,—May

I give another saying about the weather current in many parts of the .country :— " Tis time to 'Stack your hay and corn

When the old donkey blows his horn."

This enables anyone to forecast rain who lives within hearing of what the Irish call "the bawl of an EIS8."-I am, Sir, &c., HERBERT W. H. GREEN.
