Laureny May 19.—The agr^ultural
situatiory/is at a critical s^ge, said
C. B. ^nnon, county agem, in dis-
cussMtf farm matters today. It all
comM about because of /weather con

of their fieldsy while others will have
to do likevme, if anything like a
normal cotton crop is gotten under
cultivation/ Then, as Mr. Cannon
pointed put, very little com has been
plantedb for the reason that lajids be-
came/too dry to be prepared. The
smiM grain crop, large in acreage, is
mararing prematurely as result of the
qbntinued dry weather, thus cutting
down a normal yield, both of 1 grain
and forage.
“The situation is distinctly dis
couraging,” stated Mr. Cahnon, who
keeps in close touch with farm''pro-
grress at all times.
Growers of commercial peach or
chards now think they will get a
half to two-thirds of a crop, provid
