THE debate on the Ford bill provid-
ing separate cars for white and color
ed people in Texas while travelling
over the railway lines of the state was
the feature of yesterdays legislation
in the Texas house of representatives.
1t occupied the attention of the house
for the entire session and was finally
referred to committee of which the
republican member from Brownsville,
Rentfro, was appointed chairman.
There was not a word uttered in favor
OF the bill that was not equally an
argument against it and the chances
are decidedly against its adoption.
You cannot do away with public
travel annOyances by legislature regu-
lations. The traveller in Texas suf-
fers as much today from the annoy
ance of mean whites as from the an
nOyance of mean cOlOred people. The
law If passed would aggravate rather
than decrease the difficulty, for it
would neCessitate the crOwding into
one passenger car all the whites good
bad and worse, ladies and gentlemen;
and into another all the cOlored pee.
pie, good and bad, because the rail-
way corporations are not going to run
more cars than they do now to ac-
comodate the same number of people.
If the law compels them to do this it
exacts tax from the road by enforc-
ing additional and necessary ex-
pense, and multiplies the annoyance
of travel as well.

THE WEATHER.

The Storm Which Has Been Raging for Five
Days Has Spent its Force in the South.
Special to the Gazette.
GALVESTON, TEX. Feb. 19.-The storm
which has been raging during the past
five days has moved beyond the limits of
our stations of observation, and is now
probably central off the coast of Nova
Scotia. In the gulf and South Atlantic
states the weather is generally cloudy
Snow is reported at Buffalo, n. z, and
Cheyenne, Wy. T. Elsewhere fair
weather prevails Decidedly cold air
over lies the districts west and southwest /,
the temperature ranging from 4 below
zero in Kansas to 90 below in Minnesota
The temperature is below freezing in all
districts north of the isothermal line of 80
deg. which runs from Massachusetts
southwest to Georgia, thence westward
through the gulf states and Texas to the
Rio Grande valley. The precipitation
during the last twenty hours was
confined to the districts east of the Mis-
sissippi, principally in Eastern states and
along the Atlantic coast. The conditions
favor continued cool and fair weather in
Texas followed tonight, Wednesday and
Thursday by local rain in some portions
of the state, principally i'll the south and
southwest. Probably little warmer.
The conditions are such, however, as to
preclude very accurate conjectures.

Hair balls are found in the stomachs of
cattle of all ages and in sheep and goats.
They are produced by the animals licking
themselves or one another, and swallow
ing the hair that is loosened in this way
The hair enters the folds of the recticu-
lum, the second stomach, where the Pc
culiar movement of this organ soon forms
it into ball, which, as time passes,
grows larger 10y accumulation These
balls vary in size from one inch i'll dame
ter up to three inches or even more. We
have seen one which was formed in the
stomach of a buffalo and was FIVE inches
in diameter. In some cases these pre-
sent a rough surface, hair sticking out
all over them, and in others they are
smooth, having been longer in the stom-
ach, where they have been coated over
with salts of lime, etc. 1t is not a avs
easy to determine whether these balls are
present. They cause indigestion, and
the animal shows depraved appetite
Frequent attacks of collie are often the
result of these concretions in the stom-
aeh. No way has vet been found for re-
moving them, and where they increase
in size rapidly they sometimes prevent
the passage of food into the intestines
and cause the death of the animal =

The Drovers' Journal referring to the
present condition of the cattle market
says that one thing that is the matter
with it is: Feeders used to take at least
six months to fatten n drove of cattle
Now a man turns out two feed lots of
several hundred each in that time and
commences on 500 fresh cattle. Another
thing that is the matter with the cattle
market Just now: This winter there has
hardly been day when cattle with fairly
good care would not gain two and half
pounds per head, while in ordinary win
tiers there are usually two months i'll
which cattle Will eat full feed and not
make any gain in weight. This makes
gain of 100 to 200 pounds per steer on two
months alone This on the total number
OF cattle feeding is no small item.
