Colombia. 8. C , Jane 19, 1900 ?
During tie week ending 8 a. m ,
Monday, Jona 18th, the temperature
averaged slightly warmer then
ousual, bat woe free from extremes,
and was highly favorable to develop
meat.
There were widely eoattered show?
ers every daj in the week, generally
light, bat heavy in the western por?
tions, on Wedneadsy, Saturday and
Sunday, where the ground waa atill
wet from the previous week'e heavy
rainfall. On Saturday and Sunday
the ahowers were more general, cov?
ering the entire State. Exoept in the
western portions, where the rains
hindered cultivation, and ia portioos
of Bamberg, Barnwell and Orange
burg Couotiee, where the ground was
?till wet from previous rains, the
week's rainfall woe vary benefioial,
especially ao from Sumter northward
and northeastward where gardens
and tobsooo stood in need of mo is
iure. Lande were badly washed io
the Piedmont esction.
Crops of all kinds made favorable
progress aodar the above weather
conditions ezoept io those sections
where there baa been an excess of
rain, making the eoilatoo wet for
cultivation*, and fields are becoming
grassy.
Corn ia email for the aeaaon, but has
good oolor, and ia now very promis?
ing. Earlieet baa been laid by.
Bottom lande in the weetern coun?
ties, are too wet to cultivate, and
grace and weede threaten the orop.
There ie general complaint of
graeey cotton fields from the weetern
counties, where ohoppiog ie unfinish?
ed and cultivation hindered, and in
portions of the south oentral ocuntiee
^Isewhere cotton, although email for
the eeeeoo, ie growing rapidly, bnt
lice continue to infeat many fields ;
they ore, however, gradually disap?
pearing. Sea island cotton neede
hot weather and moisture. With the
exceptions noted, the orop ie clean
aod well cultivated.
Tobacco has improved aod ia doing
well. It ie buttoning low in plaoee
Gutting and ouring haa begun in
aoutbern Marion County.
The wheat and oat harveet ie near*
ly finished. Thrashing hss began,
and the reporte oontinue to iodioate
good yields. Some grain wee dam?
aged in the shock by the raine.
Reporte on rice, eweet potatoes,
melons, eager cane, aorghom, pas
tores, gardene and truck are uniform?
ly favorable. Excessive dropping
oanesd a diminution in the peach
orop io places, but es a whole the
yield will be very large. Apples
oontioue scarce Berriee are plenti?
ful.
