WEATHER AND CROPS.
FINE RAINS REPORTED FROM SEW
ERAL POINTS.
1t WINS Needed ut Thornton mud n,
Ricc-unwelcomc at Rogers,
Where II Delays Work.

Rogers. Texas. April 25.--Another large
rain fell here this morning, with prospects
ior rain to continue, which will delay cot
ION planting and work of all kinds for q
week or ten days. and the farmers are in
bad shane to stand 1t on account of being
out OF corn. and 1t looks like merchants
and corn dealers will be unable to get
enough corn to supply the demand, as 90
per cent of people VIII have to buy corn.
With prospect for wet spring, with no
corn or grass the farmer stands "a poor
show. as they are all overcropped
Thornton. Texas. April 25.--For the last
four or five DAYS there has been an almos;
continuous southeast wind with threatening
rain. which terminated this morning with
one Of the hardest showers from the north-
west since the new year. There was con
siderable wind with the rain. but no dam
age except to lay the growing crops flat on
the ground. Guess all will soon straighten
up il warm sunshine succeeds Farmers
were needing rain TO bring up the late cot
ton planting.
Georgetown. Texas, April 2i-Cold days
and cold nights stll continue, much to the
damage of young cotton. which Is making
very little Roadway. owing to the unnatural
weather for this time of year. However,
several DAYS of hot sunshine would soon
remedy this trouble providing it comes
soon. Corn is suffering from the same
cause.
Rice. Texas. April 25-A very nice and
seasonable rain fell here last night, and
indications were that the rain was general
in this section. Farmers are rejoicing, as
their lands We're beginning to crust on ac.
count OF dry weather and heavy south WIND
the past few weeks
Cat Spring. Texas. April 2i.-Weather is
cloudy and an occasional shower of rain for
past twenty-four hours, but not enough to
satisfy farmers wants. good rain is
badly needed. In ten days crops are going
to be badly damaged. Gardens are almost Il
complete failure.
Calvert. Texas. April GA fine rain fell
here this morning and has done lots OF
good to growing crops heavy wind ac-
companied the rain. but did not damage
ANYTHING.
Midlothian, Texas, April 2i.--Weather is
sim dry but threatening rain. Farmers
are still in the weeds. but a few more days
dry weather will put them up.
Mt. Vernon. Texas. April pa great
manv of the farmers in this county are be-
hind with their crops on account Of the
heavy rain recently.
Workman, Texas, April 25.-A fine rain
fell here this morning, and all the farmers
will be iublant. as cotton and corn were In
need of rain.
I.uling. Texas. April 25.-Slight showers
of rain are fallin. which is greatly appre-
ciated by cotton farmers. as it stops the
blowing sand
Wallis. Texas, April 2i-Prospects for
rain are very good 1t is needed, but the
crous are doing better since the nights arc
warmer.
Bryan. Texas. April 25.-A light rain fell
today and prospects are good for more. Rain
is badly needed for crops OF all kinds.
Hearnc. Texas. April ga slow rain fell
