weather has been cloudy, and at
times misty and just a little dis-
agreeable During the ten days
of cool weather the thermome-
ter has hardly been above fifty,
ranging downward to about 35.
Only one day did it get as low as
the freezing point. A North-
east wind has prevailed for
nearly a week. The clouds
have hung low and day after
day it-seemed that it could not
keep from raining. None of
ihis section ha: received any
&
rain, but in North Texas rain,
and sleet was plentiful about th4ii
middle of the week, the mercury
registering 25 at Ft. Worth.
This kind of weather is bad on
cattle on the range, where there,
is but little for them to eat, but
onion farmers say that it is just
th bind of weather the onion!®
crop needs. It is making a'
good growth and the plant is'
toughening up as it grov s, ^
which will enable it to stand
much colder weather in Febru-
ary, which is more than likely
to come.
