It was too wet in some of the cast <r>rn counties *o kill grass, although grassy fields are the exception. Most of the field crops are clean 1 and well cultivated. The need of rain is especially indicated for Chester, Edgefield and Saluda counties, and generally for all the central and western counties except Oconee, and there are many dry localities in the eastern counties. The stands of corn were badly broken during the week by worms, necessitating much replanting. A considerable portion of the bottom land crop remains to plant. Corn has a good color generally, I and in most places is making rapid growth. It has received its second cultivation. Cotton is doing well, with good inlands on sandy lands, while on J dry red lands the stands are not ' so good, and som? is not up. A 1 1 i f * I o remains to plant, where the! ground is too dry.
