SOME FACTS REGARDING THE

DO Not lie Alarmed, but Look for the

this may be largely due TO the excitement
and worry Of American business life. it is
more often the result of weak stomachs,
OF poor digestion.
Real. organic heart disease is incurable
but not one case In hundred OF heart
trouble is organic.
The clio c relation between heart trouble
and poor digestion Is because bo6h organs
great nerves. the Sympathetic and Pneu-
mogastric.
In another way also the heart Is affected
by that form OF poor digestion which causes
gas and fermentation from half digested
food; there is = feeling Of oppression and
heayiness in the cAesl, caused by pressure
Of the distended stomach on the heart and
lungs. interfering with rneir action; hence
arises palpjtation and short breath,
Poor digestion also poisons the blood
makes il thin and watery. which irritates
and weakens the heart

This can best be done by tho regular

TEXAS WEATHER AND CROPS
WEEKLY REPORT or THE TEXAS
SECTION or THE BUREAU.
Fair weather Ha- Increased the
Yield of Cotton = Only Few
weeks OF picking Remain.

Galveston, Texas. November 1.-Follow-
ing is the climate and crop bulletin of the
weather bureau, Texas section. for the week
ending Monday. October 81. 1898:
Temperature: The temperature on an
average for the week ranged from . 10 de-
grees below the normal. with tine greatest
deficiency ovsr the northeastern portion ct
the State The highest tonDerature at the
sc1 eral stations ranged fiom q degrees
along the immediate coast and over the
mountainous portions OF West Texas to IS
degrees in the vicinity of Beeville, and the
lowest ranged from 26 degrees over the
Panhandle 10 "A degrees along the coast.
Killing frcsts occurred on the mornings
OF the Goth and 9th almost to the coast
line.
Sunshine: Clear weather prevailed and
the sunshine ON an average for the week
was above the normal.
Precipitation: The precipitation on an
average for uhe week Was considerably be-
low the normal in all localities. The only
rainfall reported was trace at Galveston,
Beaumont and Sherman. and VI OF au lncn
from Palestine.
CONDITION OF CROPS.
The drouth continues throughout the
State and the rainfall for October has been
generally light Water for stock is gel
ting very scarce in some localities. The
ground is TOO dry for fall blowing and a
general rain is badly needed for all farm
ing operations except for the saving Of
nlatured crops.
Gotten picking continues and picking is
we'll advanced. The weather has been eX-
ceptionally favorable for this work. The
fair weather has had a tendency TO in
crease the yield, as farmers have picked
the crop closer than they would have done
otherwise. The killing frosts In the in
terror hava put a stop to the growth Of
cotton generally AMI the matured boils
will soon all be omen and picking can be
completed In the course of a few weeks if
favorable weather continues. a light top
crop is reported from a few sections, but
the top crop was a failure in most localities
Oil account OF dry weather and killing frost.
Cotton has turned out better than expect
ed in some localities, but the yield ranges
from light TO very good. with excellent
crop in some places.
The continued dry weather Is retarding
wheat sowing and will reduce the acreage
unless ii rains soon. Early sown wheat is
up and doirg fairly well in localities, but
generally suffering for rain
Writer cats are doing very we'll. Vegs-
tables We're killed IN most sections by the
fllost except slong the immediate coast,
where they are needing rain. Rice harvest
Sugar cane matureh nicely ana is being
made up. Corn gathering continues: yield
good. The crop will soon be gathered.
Other crops doing very we'll. A good rain
is badly needed for general farming in
tereSts.
