CROPS IM P ROVE p BY RAIN
Columbia. June 10.?G. C. Merchant,
meteorologist, said today' South Carolina
crops were "not anything like as
bad off as they were a week ago."
H?> said the showers during the last
hours brought the first widespread
relief from a two-months drought and
expressed the belief with "a little
more rain" crops could be saved.
A serious drawback, however, is
the lateness of the crops," the weather
man commented.
Merchant said some sections rej?orted
as much as a half inch of rainfall,
others an inch or over and others up
to three Inches in recent showers and
said further showers in prospect
would "break" the drought conclusive
1 ly if they materialize.
