Old Timer Forecast Proved Right By Rain
Rain fell after a Wednesday evening and Thursday morning forecast by Old Timer, who claimed he could predict rain days in advance. Ed Cooper and Thomas Starkdale of Bramwell praised the forecast seen in Wednesday's Bluefield Virginia news. Cooper, who planted thirty acres of beans in Giles County, expects a bountiful harvest for boarding houses. From Castlewood L. Taylor reported the first fall rain in two months, while a farmer in Scott County noted vast grazing after the downpour. The region's mood revived as moisture arrived, validating Old Timer's claim.
