Crop PRospECrs.-Our reports
from various parts of the country
concerning the crops arc very en-
couraging. The fall sowings have
apparently successfully weathered
the severe Northern winter, and no
complaints from frost are heard. A
few more such pleasant days as we
are now experiencing will enable the
husbandmen to definitely ascertain
the condition of their fall crops In
Missouri and adjoining States we
are told that the wheat crop never
looked more promising. During the
winter the planters of Alabama.
Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas
have secured large numbers of field
hands, and are making preparations
to cultivate wide area of territory.
The fact that the cotton crop of last
year has proved to be much larger
than was anticipated affords general
encouragement to the Southern
growers Washington Republican.
