situation as a whole is showing I'm

Drought has begun to affect the
Texas farmers seriously. In some
sections of north Texas. in the very
heart Of the black belt" the fertile
farming section. water Is being
hauled many miles both on the rail-
road and over the country roads. In
the wheat fields. the recently planted
grain has all died and replanting
will be necessity as soon as moist
ure comes. This situation has been
reflected to some extent in the last
week in the retail stores, and COM
plant Is general among merchants
all over the state that the public is
not buying.
Mild weather accounts in part for
this. This has been the mildest
autumn ever recorded in the history
of this section. as well as the dryest.
Killing frosts are due usually by No
vember l, but no freezing weather
has made its appearance yet.
Seven-eights of the Texas cotton
crop has been gathered. OF this about
one-half has been sold, while the re-
mainder is being held in storage for
better prices. Oil fields in north and
central Texas showed a decline Of
$3.50 barrels in the daily average Of
production in the last week. The
