April Forecasts From Hillsboro News Humorous Almanac
A long humorous April forecast from the Hillsboro News parodies weather lore and politics. It jokes about April Fools Day, frost risks in early April, political raceups and resignations, Easter customs, farm life, and a string of light adages and quips about love, clocks, and daily life. Named places and some dated references appear in a playful, fragmentary miscellany style.
