MARCH. 65 



I cannot blose my notes for March without a short reference to 

 the "mad March Hare." Hares are generally more wild in bad 

 weather, and during the present month they scamper about in such a 

 manner as to be cal ed "madl" They are interesting wild animals, 

 solitary in their habits, searching for food generally at night, such as 

 Corn, Grass, Vegetables, and the bark of young trees, not returning to 

 their "forms" until after sunrise. 



Thus finishes March. My unpretentious notes show that it has 

 been a very seasonable March, nice drying winds and open weather; 

 now with some warm April showers, bright sunshine, and no late 

 frosts, we may look forward in joy and hope for a good harvest.
