six months. Not over an inch of rain
in l8 months.
Crops are a total failure in Texas
this year, only in some places in
South Texas they say they have very
good crops. Here the cows, sheep
and horses are starving to death for
want OF feed. Feed is so high and
they can't hardly get it at any price.
Prairie grass is all dead and the
stock can't get any thing but a little
leaves off the shrubs and oaks. Some
OF the peoples chickens are starving
to death for want Of food and now
they are so poor they can't sell them
The cow milk here is like eating water
with little milk in it. 1t is SO poor
it is not good at all. When you get
a glass of milk with the cream on it
1t is not near so good as our Georgia
COW milk that has the cream taken off.
The people here seem to be awfully
worried about their crop conditions.
They say they have not made any
thing in two years. They are trying
to sell all their cows, sheep and horses
to keep them from dying of starva-
ton
Everybody wants to sell out and
go to other states where it is not so
dry Lots of the men are leaving
their families, going to the city
hunting for work to support their
families. They say they can't see
what they are going to do.
There is no work going on at all
except in the cities and towns. And
there is not near enough work to sup
ply the people.
The climate is what is keeping half
the people here. But you see we
can't live on the climate.
I will write again when feel like
it.
