been made only six -hundredths of an
inch of water fell in Lampasas. The
great need of rain increases daily

Cotton is still unchecked in growth
but begins to wilt through the heat of
the day. It is claimed that the hot sun
is paralysing' to the boll weevil if so
a host of them must have been pnt.eut
of business the past week. Sweet pota
toes peanuts and late corn grnwjngl
very slowly and snow tne need of rain
badly. Gardens where not irrigated are
drying up yet furnishing many vege-
tables. . Pastures and ranges are giving plenty

Men Ask Exemption From
Classification as Aliens
Houston Post Special. .
BRENHAM Texas July 22. E. R.
Newell of Houston special agent of the
department of justice is here to examine
applicutions of 31 men residing in and
around Brenham who are asking for ex
emption from classification as alien en-
emies. These applicants are desirous of
obtaining full citizenship and nearly all
of them had taken out their first natural-
ization papers some time ago. In com-
mon with residents of many parts of
Texas those men thought they had be-
come citizens after securing their first
papers and for years some of them hnd
voted and exercised all rights of citizen-
ship. When the war broke out it was
found that they had not been granted
final naturalization papers and there-
fore they were classed as alien enemies
even though thoroughly loyal Americans.
The cases will be thoroughly investigated
by Mr. Newel) and it is believed that
most of the applications will be granted
by the department of justice.
