Dials, July 21.-The farmers here
are experiencing some difficulty in
"laying by" their crop, owing to the
recent' storms and unprecedented fall
of rain, which greatly retarded all
farm cultivation and caused consider
able damage to the crops. The low
land crop suffered most, as bottoms
were overflowed nearly everywhere,
By reason of the continued rains the
fields are grassy. Given, however, a
few days of warm dry weather, the
condition of the growing crops will be
ameliorated to a great extent.
