Inc neaih 81 Ianasry.

Below l. q general summary Of the
weather and crop conditions FOR Janu-
airy. prepared by District Observer
Blythone OF Galveston:
Weather conditions. - In some
counties in the eastern portions of
the state the precipitation for Janu-
airy was In excess of the normal. but
generally there was a deficiency over
the stats, while in some counties the
rainfall was very light and much
more Is needed for vegetation. Sew
eral cold waves occurred during the
month, some OF which were of unusu-
al severity and caused freezing tenn
peratures to the coast and below zero
temperatures in the Panhandle. Con-
siderable damage to growing crops
resulted from the severe cold, though
snow in the north afforded Some pro-
lection during the most severe wealth
er. In some counties farming opera
tions are we'll advanced and In others
| they are behind On the whole. how.
ever. reasonably good progress has
been made along this line and prepar-
ations for putting in new crops are
in satisfactory condition of ad-
vancement.
| Wheat, Oats, Rye. --- There was
some damage to these crops by the
severe cold, especially in northern
counties. Late sown grain suffered
| more than early sown and the dam
age to oats was more severe than
TO other grains. Snow on the ground
| in the extrepe north during the Sc
| yerest cold afforded some protection
and prevented SO serious damage as
would otherwise have resulted. III
favorable weather conditions follow
J It is believed that the damage by the
| freezing will be repaired to a large
extent. Some improvements are al
ready apparent in these sections
where there Is sufficient moisture.
| In the southern part of the state the
damage BY freezing was light, but
/ In many northern counties oats are
suffering for rain
| Sugar Cane Progress was made
in manufacturing sugar and syrup
1 itoAa iile w crop bi cane Inc
cane appears TO have been well pro-
tected, so that little damage resulted
from freezing
| Gardens. ---- Gardens made fairly
satisfactory progress during the
month in the coast districts There
was some damage by freezing.
though the damage Is not believed
| to be serious. Some garden truck
was placed on the market.
| Miscellaneous. Fruit buds gen
orally appear to have been unin5ured
| by the cold. There was some damage
TO strawberries. but 1t was not seri-
Gus. Stock has generally done well
| during the winter and ts now in reas-
lonahly good condition. In many
counties, especially in the central
| districts pastures were poor and zgcek
water scarce. SO that the stock had
| to be fed. In the northwest snow
and sleet formed hard crust over
the range for several days and caus-
ed considerable suffering.

A NOVEL OFFENsE.
Young Man Arrested on Charge o'
Compromising Crime.

Fred Korn, young man who has
been employed at Pete Ellis rest
aurant on the south side of the
square, was arrested this morning on
an alleged charge OF compromising
crime. The arrest was made By
Deputy Sheriff NJ. S. Minniek. In
default OF bail the young man was
lodged in the county Jail.
This Is a novel offense and so far
as the records show Is the oaly one
of the kind ever filed la Ellis eomn-
~, 1t Is defined BY the statutes
as taking money To conceal crime.
Last night two boys from the Ster-
rett community secured a room at
Mr., Ellis restaurant In order TO
pass away the time. so they claim.
they engaged in game of cards.
While . game was In progress they
claim that young Korn came TO their
room and accused them of gambling
The boys denied that they were play
ing for money. but they say that
Korn insisted that he had been watch
ing them through the keyhole and
that they were betting on the game
to their statements he
threatened to have them "plnched"
unless they gave him a dollar. After
some parleying and probably with a
view to escaping prosecution the boys
gave Korn the amount demanded
This morning the matter WAS report
ed to County Attorney Smith. aud
after an investigation he filed a com
plant against Koru charging him
with compromising crime
