THE RAIN WAS GLORIOUS.
Good Rains are as far West as Del
Rio and as far South as
Twohig. Benefits Crops.
Cattle and Trade.

The rainfall i'm this section of
Texas Saturday night and Sunday
afternoon was an inestlmabIe
blessing to stock and agricultu-
raj interests. For months the
country has been suffering from
protracted drouth / hat had
retarded planting operations and
had caused thousands of cattle TO
be shipped from the south and
Southwest Texas pastures to the
Indian Territory, the pastures in
this section having almost failed,
and feedstuffs had become 80 eX-
pensive that feeding was out of
the question.
Where the rain reached it will
start the grass to growing, max
ing the prairie green and 1T will
add hundreds of thousands to the
agricultural interests, as the long
seasons in this part will enable
farmers yet to plant and mature
their crops. There is still ample
time with continued seasonable
rains for the planting of cotton
and corn in this part of Texas.
The rain, from accounts receiv.
ed, did not go rs far south as it
was hoped. No reports were re-
ceived in the city of rain below
Twohig, on the International &
Great Northern. The scope of
the precipitation, however, was
wide and at places the rainfall
was heavy. In San Antonio and
vicinity the Government gauge
showed a total precipitation of
2.24 for Saturday night and Sun
day afternoon. The downfall
caused very perceptible rise in
the San Antonio River, the rise
up to 6 p, m, being nearly Il foot
and a half.
Rain reports through the rail-
road dispatcher's Office are cheer
ing all along the lines. On the
international e. Great Northern
Sunday there was n heavy rain
from Devine to Hearne, and light
rains from Hearne to Palestine.
Saturday night there was heavy
rain from Devine to Palestine.
On the Southern Pacific rain
reports show heavy rain all the
way to Del Rio and Eagle Pass.
Beyond Del Rio the San Antonio
dispatcher's Office did not make a
report.
