Now York lit from twelve and
threo'f.uvths to thirteen cents.
Tho situation looked critical
for the “ f boaru” but the over ready
Dl 1 . Hunter of the 'Department, of
Agriculture was ori hand with
another bulletin in which ho an
nounced lliut tho recent extreme

Ho said in ofieot what tho bears
had contc&dcd all along that the
prolonged hot and dry spell in
tho South West wr.s a real Mohh-
ing to tho cotton crop.
Of course, this was U bo cx-
pocted. Didn't the Doctor issue
