Franklin parish complains Of constant
rains, cool, damp and windy weather.
The cane Is extremely promising in
West Baton Rouge; quite a change in
color since the late rains.
The crops in Madison parish will not
reach more than 60 per cent OF last year
and this without any damage by the
worms. These, however, have developed
themselves almost everywhere.
Quite number OF army worms have
appeared In Tensas parish. although
they are not vet sufficiently numerous
to do much damage.
Cotton and corn In the weste rn part of
Ouacbita parish are reported as i'm ex-

crop, however, will be short.

The reports from all parts OF the coun-

The genuine cotton worm has made
