It is generally conceded, I believe, that the country about here is worse off than in 1881. Farmers may make a littlemore corn, but they will cer tainly make lees cotton. The small grain crop, cotton, potatoes and tor nips may be set down as a signal fail ure. Last, year one farmer raised about 2,000 bushels of ruta, bagas, this year the whole county will not make 200 bu hels. We have not had even a tolerable season since May We are as dry as a powder horn, and farmers are badly behind in sowing grain.
