The farmers throughout this
section are not in a hurry to sell
their corn. The failure of the
crop in the past has taught many
to store it away for emergency.
The San Antonio Express re-
marks that "there are still a few
counties in North and East Tex-
as in which the thirsty citizen
may wet his whistle without seek-
ing a back door entrance or hid-
ing behind a screen, but they are
becoming fewer day by day."

Mr. J. D. Slawson, ot this city,

ords 'of the Improved Order of
Redmen of Texas, was elected
president of the Great Chief of
Records Association of the Unit-
ed States at a recent session of
the order which met at Atlantic
City, N. J. This is an honor
worthily bestowed and the Trib-
une joins Mr. Slawson's many
friends throughout Texas in ex-
tending congratulations.

ty weather has given the price of
