We hare had tome dry, hot
weather, tad crops were deteriorating

apt tutaid rain here Sunday night res
cued then, but we do not know the
territorial extent of the rain and
eeewjuentlj the general good done
the crops,
July was a hot month, and of little
rain, though the temperature fell
once to a minimum of 08 degrees. '
Here are are some temperature recordings:
From 17th to 31st the
maximum temperature ranged from
'yi to 100 degrees. Mean maximum
temperature 02.'J. Mean minimum

A very disgusting thing (to* me) is '
to sec an ugly chap, two or three *
degrees from the ''Upper Ten" feel- *
ing his importance so, that he tries
to be oh, such a smart, Big Ike. *
In fact. I don't like those little t
smartics, boys or girls, anyway, and ^
I always feel that they arc like young
jay birds, that they left their nests h
too soon. v
You may talk about "progress,"
but as the country progresses in the ^
business world etc , it loses to a great vl
extent in the religions, in sympathy, 'a
P sin feeling, for fellow beings,
4nd H seems Ime humanity is lost. to
Night and day and often Sundays M
are for work; the sick are neglected,
and the dead are almost left to bury aI

Weekly Crop Bulletin, ?
The week's rainfall, as reported by ^
orrespondents, was comparatively b
ght and consisted of widely scatter- a
d local showers, that were very ben- .
ficial where they occurred, as rain J
-as needed over the whole State, but y.
lany places had none or elso insuf- cient
amounts. During the last 1
wo days additional rains occurred,
hat are not covered by the reports,
nd the showers were quite general nd
heavy in the central counties, j
iut were light in the extreme west- .
rn and extreme eastern ones. These n
ate rains thoroughly relieved the ^
rought over a large portion of the ^
tate, and to that extent were of
reat benefit.
The week's weather was generally "1
dverse, during the first half, in its J
fleets on crops, especially on corn, wing
to the heat and dryness of the J
ir, and lack of moisture in the sur- ,
ace soil, but farmwork progressed ^
avorably and nearly all crops nave a

Cotton suffered somewhat from t<
ick of moisture, although on stiff, 3
nd rich lands, the effects cf the dry ~
eather were principally to cheek its
eretofore rapid growth and cause ft
> bloom to its tops, but on light, y
?ndy soils cotton not only stopped K
rowing but also began to shed its J
aves and fruitagj. Portions of the ai

ally poor, unsatisfactory condition,

Balthy color, but its growth was
lecked. . es
