MEMPHIS Tenn, July Z, ISIS J
We herewith submit our regular month
" crop report, showing the condition OF
cotton and corn within the Memphis dis
trict. which embraces West Tennessee,
North Mississippi, North Arkansas and
North Alabama The report is made from
PIG letters Of inquiry sent out June p, the
replies TO which bear average date OF July
q The weather during June was uniayor-
able 10 cotton on account OF too much
rain. and the complaint is general through.
out the district OF grassy crops
but at the same time our cor
respondents express themselves that,
with favorable weather fields will
be cleaned and no material damage will
have been sustained. There is very littl0
difference in the general condition OF the
frop now as compared with the same
period last year Stands are reported good,
aud the plant, although in some localities
is two weeks late, is blooming and form
ing well. Since these responses were sent
in the weather has settled, and great pro.
gress has no doubt been made 10y farmers
in cleaning their foul crops. The aban-
honmcnt Of lands that were originally
planted in cotton is 50 very small that il
will not effect the estimate we have already
published Of the increased acreage in this
district Corn is reported insplcndid con
iition, and the outlook for very large
yield was never more bright or promising
