Your DAILY Companion From the Almanac Editors
September strews the woodlot o'er
With many a brilliant color;
The world is brighter than before,
Why should our hearts be duller?
–Thomas W. Parsons (1819–1892) | | | Question of the Day
When was the fly swatter invented? – Answer
Puzzle of the Day
A somber color I am found, And as to dirt I little show it; But if you fairly turn me round, Behold I am a poet. (What word fits the first clue, but when read backwards, fits the second?) – Answer | | | ADVERTISEMENT Planting Wildflowers
If you live in Texas, you need to get your wildflower seeds in the ground during the month of October. Why? Because wildflower seeds need to be cold stratified. That means they need to go through a period of being cold before they will germinate. If you forget by the end of October, put them in the ground in November. | | | ADVERTISEMENT Which Almanac do you prefer?
