THE FARMERS ARE PLEASED
The Outlook for the Farmer Is
Very Bright.

Sc far as we have been able to as
certain no material damage was
done in Ellis county by the blizzard
and snow storm with which 1t was
visited Sunday night. Notwith-
standing the scarcity of feed stuff
in the county cattle and other stock
were in fairly good condition and
will only suffer temporarily. OF
course there was some damage to
flowers and lawns that had peeped
out too early, but the loss as
whole was light as compared with
the great good that will result from
the freeze. The farmers regard the
snow AS a providential godsend to
the wheat, as this cereal crop was
growing too rapiply for its own
good. Its growth will now be check
ed to some extent and the crop will
not mature prematurely.
The farmers are hoping that the
cold blast will be the breaking up of
the long wet spell and also that the
wind will blow long enough to dry
out their fields so they can get into
them. 1t is now almost time to
plant corn, but as yet practically no
work has been done in the county
toward preparing land for a new
crop. Very few oats have been
planted and no land has been bed
ded for cotton. Just as soon as the
ground is dry enough oat sowing
and corn planting will be pushed
vigorously.
The outlook for the farmer at
present is very bright and If there
is not some trouble unforeseen a big
crop will be made this year. BY
the time corn planting is finished a
good many farmers will begin plant
ing cotton, as they are going to do
their best this year to get ahead Of
the bollweevils, IL there are any in
the county. Cotton seed from the
north will be planted with the hopes
of maturing the crop early in the
season.

relief, She was very low and | lost
all hope, when a friend suggested
trying Foley's Honey and Tar,
which l did; and thanks be to this
great remedy 1t saved her life. She
