Crops Damaged?Roads Improved?Our
Scribe Collared and Tied.
Andrews,September 4:?Our community
was visited last Sunday and
Monday by a severe wind and rain
storm. The crops, especially cotton. I
are badly damaged, quite a lot of
cotton being blown out. The con-,
tinued rain is causing the cotton to
sprout in the bolls. Corn, where '
the fodder was not stripped, suffered
great damage. It seems that the
greatest loss wason the coast;thetugs
around Georgetown have towed into
port several ships and have found a 1
quantity! of household goods and
clothing afloat, which indicates some 1
homes being destroyed along the |
on net
!
Cotton picking has been stopped
, and thousands of bales open in the
fields are now going to waste from
the wet weather.
Our part of the Gapway road
from the Harpers old cross-roads
where the Gapway road crosses the
county line road to Spring Gully
bridges, a distance of 10 miles, is
now about completed. This was
9 made possible by the untiring efforts
of our competent Road Engineer,Mr,
John M Eaddy, and his capable road ,
builders. Besides, this work was
done by our people co-operating,
with the Road Engineer. Our public-spirited
people all along the line ;
of the road went down into their
pockets and donated to this work;;
such men as Messrs Feagin and Marshall,
who I believe, contributed $50.
The following named gentlemen also
donated liberally to this purpose:
Messrs D E Player,J E Feagin, L A,!
M H and Jesse Parsons, D H Mixon,'
L J J'Swails, J A McCants, S E McI
Cants, R M Haselden, Cleve and J J
Gibson, T A McCants, Sr, T A McCants,Jr,
C F McCants, W A Moore,
l
G W Camlin, W R Camlin and sons,
J B Thompson and sons, Dr Feagin
and brother, R C Marshall (who put
the project on foot), W B Timmons
and brothers. John Marshall and
sons, J J,J K and William, who have
put their energy and money into the
upbuilding of this road. There may
be others who did their parts. It is
not my intention to overlook them.
? but the people along this line of road
lent the Road Enginner a helping
hand and said by their actions, "We j
are going to have an up-to-date
road." Just see what determination
and money can do. If the people all
over old Williamsburg would do just
as these people have done, our county
would soon have roads second to
none in the State. We now have two
roads leading into Andrews of which
our people are justly proud?the
road from Trio to Andrews and the
Gapway road leading from Spring
Gully to our town, besides a number
of others from ditferent points in

Unofficial advices from the cotton

in the crops were due to severe
droughts,hot winds and worms.
Reports indicate that heavy shedding
caused by hot weather was the chief
factor of deterioration in practically
all States except Louisiana and Mississippi,
where there was too much
rain.- In all other States heat and

Washington, September 1:?A to- q
tal production of 12,918,200 bales of C
cotton, as the final yield this year, is
indicated by the official report of the
Department of Agriculture of the bi
condition of the growing crop on p
is
August 25, which the crop reporting ^
board, from reports from its corre- e(
spondents and agents throughout the d<
cotton belt, estimated to-day at 73.2 ?
per cent of a normal.
The estimate,based on the ratio of ,
El
the average yield for the past ten T!
years to the average condition of the
crop on August 25, for the past ten years,
would mean a final yield of
181.65 pounds per acre on the plant
ed area of approximately 34,000,000 1
acres, allowing for an abandoned ' I
acreage of 1,000,000 and provided J?
the crop does not decline or improve j
from the date the condi .ion was es- i
timated to time of. picking.
