Baer’s Almanac
The coming year will be cold and
humid, Easter will fall on March 25,
and the best time to cut your locks
to produce a full head of hair is on
the increase of the moon, according
to Baer’s Agricultural Almanac for
1951.
This Almanac, now in its 126th
annual edition, is known to many
residents in this area as the “Lan
caster” Almanac, since it has been
published at Lancaster, Pa., since
1825 by John Baer and his succes
sors.
One of the few publications of its
type still existing, the Almanac is
known to many as “the encyclopedia
on a string” because from early
times it -was hung by a piece of
twine near the kitchen stove, and
referred to daily.
The 1951 edition contains a num
ber of interesting items, such as the
information that there will be two
“ring” eclipses of the sun, on March
7 and September 1. The latter will
be visible in this area if the sky
is clear.
It advises that yellow lights at
tract fewer insects than white lamps
that tomato seedlings should be
transplanted in May, on a cloudy
day or just after a shower, and that
eggs stored at room temperature may
lose as much in quality in three days
as eggs kept two weeks in a
refrigerator.
