Thursday, July 12 f 1951 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Page Fire i v if Crops Continue To Make Progress Over the State / Columbia, July 10.—Crops contin ued to make good progress during the week ending June 26, according to the weekly weather and crop bulletin. Soil moisture was mostly sufficient for current needs in the state as a whole but was more adequate in the northwest section than the eastern and coastal. Cotton was blooming freely down- state and squaring well in the north. Boll weevils were more active but most cotton growers were alert to the danger and applying poison where needed. Corn was doing well and the small grain harvest was about finished down-state, although showers de layed cutting in tne north, where | about 30 per cent of the wheat and 15 per cent of the oat acreage was unharvested. Tobacco was developing well with early plantings about mature and cur ing becoming more general. Peaches were moving in larger volume with marketings consisting mostly of Dixired, Dixigem and Jub ilee varieties. Weather conditions were normal early in the week but hot and humid toward the end. The average tempera ture was 81 degrees, three above normal, with the highest 103 at Greenwood on the 24th and the low est 66 at several points on the 20th. Rainfall for the month had averaged 3.81 inches, an inch less than normal. The heaviest fall was 2.05 inches at Kershaw on the 22nd.
