Fonrfnl Time far the Cattle Crops f Ielycl By th Celd Wpcll Prices 1 of Produce as Compared With Ours. Alsdorf, Tn., Feb. 15. Editor Standard: Well, I wilt-try. to give your readers an idea how cold ic et8 in Texas. Saturday night, the 11th, was said by old: eettlera to be the coldest weather in Tsaa since 25 years ago! The thermoaieter jegistered fiom 2 to 15 degrees be low ziro. Stock men are very anxious about their cattle which are said to be ily irv by the thousands from cold. We had a enow about 2 or 3 inches deep nn the 11th and at this writing it has turned warmer and is raining. Oae man froza almost to death at Earns on that cold day. He is sup posed to have been' drunk and lay out. The doc or said he would hardly recover. One flne, fat horse near Eanis froz to death on the: eauie date on account of the stable; uoar being left open so thit the wind blew directly on him all nihtj In fact this ih the coldest spll of weather I ever witnessed in ary country . All that we could do waa make firea and then sit down and warm ourselves to be ready to make more in a short while. There will be cotton to pick in Texas this spring while the farmers aTe preparing their lands for another crop. ' I Everything i3 cheap enough in Texas thid winter in "the way of country produce. Corn sella at 20 cents per bushel, nood flour 190 par hundred pounds, pork 5 ceDts per pound, sweet potatoes 50 cents pr bushel, chickens $1.50 to $2 00 per dozen, eggs 10 to 12 h cents per dozen, good country butter 15 cents per pound. But cattle are high and hence our beef comes high, steak being wortfi 8 and 10 : cents per pound. j Weil, for lear I weary your read ers, I'll stop. J.
