That the alarm felt by many In
the Valley when a hurricane was
reported on a rampage in the Gull
OF Mexico a few days ago was not
justified Is shown by a u. s. Dept.
Of Agriculture bulletin, Hurricanes
Of the South Atlantic and Cult
States, 1879 to 1928.
1t shows that our OF is great
hurricanes which have struck va
ri0us parts Of the United States
during the past SO years. only one
has chosen a path near the Rio
Grande Valley.
This great cyclone travelled be-
tween Corpus Christi and Browns
vile ond did not do any material
damage In the Valley. 1t occurred
in 1916.
There have been only 10 hurri-
canes classified as great, from
among 81 tropical cyclones OF hur-
ricane intensity that reached the
coasts OF the United States during
the last so years, according to the
bulletin.
OF the lesser storms only a few
have passed near the Valley. A map
shows that the hurricane Of 1902
passed nearer the Valley than any
OF the lesser cyclones. the hurricane
Of 1919 cutting the nearest path.
Destruction Of the owns O.
GAINESVILLE. Texas and Bagdad,
Mexico, near the mouth OF the Rio
Grande occurred during the two
storms. one IN 1897 and the other
in 1874. Their intensity Is not
known because they occurred before
accurate records were kept, but II
is known that neither .own was

we're located on the shore where
water aided in their destruction.
Most Of the Valleys coast is pro-
tected by islands which the exact
mouth Of the river is not.
Reference TO hundreds Of hurri-

EVERY DAY now, national and
local authorities are urging pre-
cautionary measures against flu,
colds and pneumonia.
Their advice is simple and
sensible. The exact cause of flu
is not definitely known. But a
weakened rundown condition
may expose us to greater risks of
fu-just as it may expose us to
greater risks of other diseases.
So the wise thing is to build up
our vitality and resistance. Keep
free from worry. Avoid exposure
and oveP-fatigue. Get plenty of
nourishing food, sleep and exer-
else. And start at once to take a
good, fortifying tonic.
Doctors advise SCOTS Emulsion
