Counsel for July

The following comes from W. W. Phelps, Almanac for the Year 1859: The Third after Leap Year; and after the 6th of April, Thirtieth year of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Great Salt Lake City, UT: J. McKnight, 1859), 9:
JULY, in vigor, should be set apart, agriculturally, for HAYING AND HARVEST; the season to secure plenty for the use of prosperity. The farmer's "penny saved," for the widow and orphan, is worth more than the speculator's "dime horded." Prudence and care save fortunes. Wisdom whispers, save all.
