have to De done.

A great deal ofthe white aud black oak
timber in this county was greatly injured
by the recent cold weather. There will be
a few apples in this county, and perhaps a
very few peaches, cherries and plums in
some localities. Vegetables have been re-
tarded in their growth.

Our farmers report a few apples left by
the frost. There is TCre corn planted in
cur county at the present time than there
has been since the war on the 30th day Of
April. The cut wOrms are playing sad
havoc in field and garden, the continued
cold weather being favorable for them.

Farming operations in Haywood county
are we'll advanced for the season. Most
farmers are done planting both corn and

Of 1873.

We have been informed by several gem
tlemen living nea- Dancyville, that the
late frost aid freeze did very little if any
damage 70 the wheat in that section, but
the damage to the fruit crop is cOnsidera-
bic. They estimate that from third TO
half fIuit crop will be made.

Farmers say that the wheat crop has been
considerably injured by the last cOldweath-
er and frOsts. The forward wheat that had
jOinted was cut plumb of.

The growing wheat crop was not materi-
ally damaged by the recent frOsts, and, if
no reverses come, will be very bOuntifUl.
The early corn looks quite promising, not
withs,anding the uufavOrable weather.
Fruit-groWers 20 Gadsden think they will
make at least half a crop, uOtwithstandi
ing the heavy frOsts. Strawberries are
looking fine.
Manchester Guardian.
We have made diligent inquiry among
the citizens Of different sections of Coffee
county, in regard to the damage by the late
frost and cold weather, and the general
oUinion is that the wheat crop is not in
i1rpI. except perhaps slightly in the neigh
bofhOOd Of Beech Grove, where it was
rather more forward than on the uplands.
The peach crop is entirely destroyed.
There will be some apples if no further
frost comes. Pears, cherries, etc, are gen
orally killed. The gardens have not suffer
cd much, very few vegetables being out Of
the ground. In only a few instances was
the corn up, but where it was it was killed.
