NET RECEIPTS AT ALL U.
The harvesting of
these crops is now well under way in
practically all parts of the state. Those
crops are very light, and some fields are
being mowed for hay. Tn favored parts
of the northern portion of the state the
wheat crop will give from one-half to
two-thirds of an average yield.
Rice is reported to be making very
satisfactory growth. Water for irrigating
is ample. There is some late planting be-
ing accomplished, but the bulk of the
crop is well advanced and growing nicely.
Miscellaneous crops: Sugar cane is
making an excellent growth. Haying
has made rapid progress and a heavy
crop is assured. Rangos are vastly im-
proved and stock water plentiful in the
western and northwestern counties. Fruit,
prospects continue bright; peaches and
plums, arc ripening. Irish potatoes are
being dug and shipped in large quantities.
Tomatoes are beginning to ripen in the
eastern portion of the state. Sweet
potato, cantaloupe apacf’watermelon vines
are growing vigorou^|y?
GENERAL SUMMARY.
Washington, D. C.,’jMay 27.—The weath-
er bureau weekly sumihAry of crop con-
ditions says:
But lew adverse reports respecting cot-
ton are leceived. In portions of Texas,
Oklahoma and Alabama the crop is get-
ting grassy and boll weevil increasing,
and lice are appearing in southern Texas.
Generally throughout the cotton belt,
however, the fields are clean and the crop
has made good growth, and squares are
forming throughout the southern por-
tion.

United States department of agricul-
ture, Texas section, climate and crop
service, weather bureau weekly report
for week ending May 26:
GENERAL SUMMARY.
Temperature: The average tempera-
ture for the state for the past week was
81 degrees; the highest temperature was
100 degrees at El Paso on the 25th, and
the lowest, 5S; degrees at Henrietta on
the 20th. The departure from the normal
temperature for the state ranged from
an excess of 3 to 4 degrees along the
£ulf coast to 8 to 10 degrees over the cen-
tral and northern portion of the state.
The warm weather and abundant sun-
shine have favored rapid growth of all
plants.
Rainfall: The Panhandle and the coun-
ties south thereof to the Rio Grande re-
ceived heavy to excessive rainfall during
the early part of the week and the
former section moderate rainfall on Sun-
day, the 25th; elsewhere the. week has
been practically -without rain. The fol •
lowing are the heaviest rainfalls, in
inches, for the week: Amarillo, 1.04;
Abilene, 1.36; Colorado, 1.23; Gail, 5.00,
Hondo, 0.89; Henrietta, 0.72; Iowa Park,
1.50; Ira, 2.00; Runge, 0.60; San Saba, 1.33
The heavy rainfall in the western and
northwestern parts of the state has been
v&*y beneficial and greatly Improved the
condition of the ranges in these districts.
The eastern half of the state has received
little or no rain during the week, and in
consequence farm wopk, has made rapid
progress.
Cotton: The weather for the past week
has been favorable for the cultivation of
the cotton crop, and many fields that
were becoming foul at the end of the pre-
ceding week have since been-Acleaned;
however, there is y^L.ppmpIaint of the
crop being In the grass in scattered parts
of the northeastern and gulf districts.
The violent wind storms of Sunday, the
18th, destroyed a number of fields in the
south-central poi'tion of the state; many
of these fields have since been replanted.
The area infested by boll weevil has in
creased somewhat, and the latest re-
ports indicate Falls county to be the
northern limit and the counties bordering
on the gulf the southern. The eastern
and western limits have not changed
Hiaterially. Lice are becoming numerous
in limited areas in the south portion of
the state. The crop lias made material
advancement during the week, and the
early planted is forming squares as far
north as Tarrant county and is in bloom
in the southern portion of the state.
Corn: The laying by of the corn crop
has made rapid progress during the week.
The crop is growing vigorously, and gives
promise of an exceptionally large yield
Many correspondents state that another
rain in ten days to two weeks will in-
sure large returns.

To Prove What Swamp-Root, the Great Kidney
Remedy, Will Do for YOU, Every Reader of
The Tribune May Have a Sample Bottle Sent
Free by Mail.
/ —---
It used to be considered that only urinary and
bladder troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly all
diseases have their beginning in the disorder of
these most important organs.
The kidneys filter and purify the blood—that is
their work.
Therefore, when your kidneys are weak or out of
order, you can understand how quickly your entire
body is affected, and how every organ seems to fail
to do its duty.
If you are sick or “feel badly,” begin taking the
great kidney remedy, Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, be-
cause as soon as your kidneys are well they will
help all the other organs to health. A trial will
convince anyone.
Weak and unhealthy kidneys are responsible for
many kinds of disease, and if permitted to continue,
much suffering with with fatal results are sure to
follow. Kidney trouble irritates the nerves, makes
you dizzy, restless, sleepless and irritable. Makes
you pass water often during the day and obliges
you to get up many times during the night. Un-
healthy kidneys cause rheumatism, gravel, catarrh
of the bladder, pain or dull ache in the back, joints
and muscles; makes your head ache and back ache,
causes indigestion, stomach and liver trouble, you
get a saJlow, yellow complexion, makes you feel as
though you had heart trouble; you may have plenty
of ambition but no strength; get weak and waste
away. •
The cure for these troubles is Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
Root, the world-famous kidney remedy. In taking
Swamp-Root you afford natural help to Nature, for
Swamp-Root is the most perfect healer and gentle
aid to the kidneys that is known to medical science.
If there is any doubt in your mind as to your
condition, take from your urine on rising abou^
four ounces, place it in a glass or bottle and let it
stand twenty-four hours. If on examination it is
milky and cloudy, if there is a brick-dust settling,
or if small particles float about in it, your kidneys
are in need of immediate attention.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to ta£e and is used in the
leading hospitals, recommended by physicians in
their private practice, and is taken by doctors
themselves who have kidney ailments, because they
recognize in it the greatest and most successful
remedy for kidney, liver and bladder troubles.
If you are already convinced that Swamp-Root is
what you need, you can purchase the regular fifty-

When the two countries, China
France, were engaged some years ago in
boundaries between the

European commissioners
were extremely surprised at the anxiety
of the Celestials to keep in their posses-
sion a small range of low. hills. '

sphere, but the Chinese officials
so good an exchange for them
that they were permitted to keep them.
It was not until afterward that the rea-
son was discovered. These hills are
known to the Chinese nation as the Seven
Tea mountains. It is there that the tea
consumed by the imperial court of China
is grown. Every leaf of the crop goes
direct to Pekin, and no inferior person is
permitted, under penalty of death, to use
so much as a cupful of this perfect pro-
duct.
Very peculiar are some of the privi-
leges appertaining to Asiatic potentates.
A special brand of tobacco is grown for

is one of the strongest marks of favor
which King Chulalongkorn can bestow,
a present of one of these royal cigars.
Another of the priviieges- of this monarch
is to be permitted a first selection of the
stones from the famous Siamese sap-
phire mines. By custom these are given
free, but as a matter of fact he pays for
all he takes.

WHOOPING COUGH.
A woman who has had experience with
this disease, tells how to prevent any
dangerous consequences from it. She
says: Our three children took whooping
cough last summer, our baby boy being
only three months old, and owing to our
giving them Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
they lost none of their plumpness and
came out in much better health than oth-
er children whose parents did not use this
remedy. Our oldest little girl would call
lustily for cough syrup between whoops.—

In the left ear of Menelik,
Abyssinia, may be seen a diamond soli-
taire earring set with gold. This has two
meanings—that the wearer has killed an
elephant and that he is of royal birth. In
Abyssinia none except those wrho can
claim blood relation with the monarch
are permitted to wear gold in any shape
or form. This seems a more sensible
privilege than that formerly accorded to
the ruling family of Madagascar. Like
the Chinese, the people of Madagascar
are devoted to kite flying. Even the
king or queen used frequently to share in
this amusement; Queen Ranavalona, the
last sovereign, was very fond it it. It
was the law of the Hovas that no sub-
ject’s kite should ever be permitted to
rise to a greater height than that of their
ruler, and this odd privilege was most
carefully guarded for centuries.
The privileges of European monarchs
are comparatively commonplace nowa-
days. Spain, however, retains a few
which are rather mediaeval. For one
thing, nc subject not of noble birth may
so much as touch the sacred person of the
king. Some years ago vhen the little
king was running downstairs, he slipped
and fell and would certainly have been
badly hurt, perhaps killed, had not a
young footman sprung to the rescue and
caught the boy in his arms. For this
service the footman immediately received
his dischaige. Fortunately for him, the
queen regent is not so narrow minded as
her officials. She immediately sent for
. the man, thanked him, and made him a
present of a sum sufficient to keep him
in comfort for the rest of his life.
When the cnar and czarina last visited
France their beds were spread with some
of the magnificent linen accumulated by
Nagcleon III. Much to the chagrin of
their entertainers, the servants of their
majesties stripped off all of this splendid
linen and used their own sheets worked
with the Russian imperial arras. It ap
pears that this is the invariable custom
and privilege of the Russian royal family,
who, wherever they traxe!, never use
any? bed linen or towels but their own.
Other privileges also the czar of all the
Russias enjoys. There are certain ponds
in the imperial parks where no one but
the reigning sovereign may throw a line.
The i-resent czar only occasional'y
handles a rod, but when he does do so he
is able to pull out by the dozen monster
carp and pike, some of which are said to
have been originally placed in these
waters by Peter the Great himself. Tq^,
the czar it is alone permitted to drive at
full gallop along the public roads, and
this is a privilege of which he frequently
avails himself.
As for the English royal family their
privileges are not only few in number,
bat they very rarely avail themselves of
them. For instance, although the king
claim free transportation over any
railway in the kingdom, he never does so.
He could, if he so desired, have all the
water and gas he requires supplied free
to all the royal palaces. Yet he prefers
to pay for these requisites of every day
life. Even local rates and taxes, which
England’s rulers are specially exempted
from, are not avoided. The collectors
do not send demand notes to Bucking-
ham palace or Windsor, but a certain
;lump sum is sent annually by the comp-
troller of the household to the represen-
tative of the authoiities of the boroughs
in which the palaces are situated.
Only two of the British royal privileges
are commonly put in practice. One is
the settling of disputes or judging of
small offenses among the servants of the
royal household by a private tribunal,
