numerous light showers over the . n

to over an inch of rainfall, but no
where was there enough tain for the
lioeds of crops that in places are suffering
for want of moisture. Th'
ground is hard ar.d cloddy in places,
nnd in sessions there Is not enough
moisture to germinate recently planted
seeds. The drought is espec'all.'
severe in Charle to:i county wh re
truck yields have been materially diminished.
llail fell at niaay point-,
but only in jxirtions of llamberg an I ;
rarnwell counties to an injurious r;. j
tent, and there in places cotton and
melons were totally de;troyed and w.ll
have to be replajrtc i.
Cotton planting and replanting Is
finished. and most of the replanted s
coming up to good stands. The fir t
plantings, where not replanted, his
poor stands. but some of it continu >
to come up. Cut worms injured stauds
in Marlboro county. Chcpp'ng out. and
cultivation have begun over the ea<

in the condition of cotton is noted.
Corn has iruprov.d in color, a'.- I

The plants a*e unseasonably small, but
recently have begun t:> grow. Cultivation
is now. general, and about all has

the work is underway. Replantin:
continues in places.
Tobacco transplanting is pia-tically
finished, and the young plants are
growing nicely. Rice has come up ,o
good stands, nr.d lands, where dry
enough, are beung prepared for June
piartings. Melons have poor stands,
in sections where the crop is raised on
a Large commercial scale, but late
plantings are coming up better. Cane
Is a*so in an unsatisfactory condition.
What continues to look well anu is fully
headed, but oats have dcterioated in
places, have short straw, and are suf
fering for rain. Colorado beetles aro
numerous on white potato's; in the
KHitheastern counties potatoes are being
dug. with pcor yields. Sweet potatoes
