The average annual yield for Hontli Carolina Ih 1,226, ooo hales, or 012,600,000 pounds. A vertigo yield for 1911-12 \yaa approximately 2t?o pounds to tin* aero.

When questioned concerning the probability of tho enormous finan cial Iohh to tho cotton grower* of tho state because of the prolonged drought, Col, 10. J. Watson, commls Hioner of agriculture claimed that, in other seasons such a calamity wan predicted and large crops were pro duced. He Ib of the opinion that, If rain falls in tho near future, tho cotton crop will not be seriously curtailed/ Col. Wat Hon ways that the stand of cotton Is had thruout the state, that In some sections the ci op has has been replanted. On the coast the cotton' crop Is In a bad condi tion and tho same condition pre vails in tho middle section. In the Piedmont tho condition -is not qulto' so pronounced it is said but- the plant has failed to attain its full growth and the stand Is extremely had. / Richard 11. Sullivan, director of tho United States local weather bu reau, says -that only intermittent showers have fallen in certain sec tions "of the state sihee the middle of March; that the precipitation, has been very, light thruout] South. Caro lina.. Mr. Sullivan does not antici pate any great fall of rain In the next few days. The farmers of tho state ' had Ideal conditions under which to plant, and the crop, perhaps, would have reached the flood tide of the bumper crop of 1911 If the pro longed drought had not struck them. A wet winter got the . ground into such ?, a condition that it was easy for the agriculturists to plow deep and thoroughly turn the soil. But the continual lack oi rain has made the upturned earth like powder. Meet Iny of Hospital Auxiliary.

Hilton, of Westville. was in Camden yesterday selling his canned products. Mr. Hilton tells ns that he and the members of his family, last season canned 100 doz en tomatoes from 1-5 acre and that he finds ready sale for his products. This season he sold 33 dozen eans of tomatoes and numbers of cans of berries and other fruits to the Hob kirk Inn and says the manager offei I ed to take his entire output if he would make such reduction in price ; that would warrant him in shipping j lo his northern hotels to be used ; for the summer tourists. Mr. Hil I ton thinks this the very highest com j pliment that could be paid to the ca I ning industry in the South as mer chants are daily selling goods in 'their stores that are packed by ^northern roncerns. Ho says there I is more money in canning industry than anything a small farmer can produce on the farm and that it is made at small cost.
