The past week has been all that could be
desired by tho farmer, and consequently
crops are growing finely, and bounliiul
harvest Is now almost a certainty.
Corn is made, and an excellent crop 1t is.
The dry spell in May served to check the
growth of the stalk, but the rains III Juno
and July came in ample time to cause the
ear to fill out and grow to good size.
weeks has been the very life of the cotton
plant, which now looks thrifty and luxu-
RANT. Chances are favorable for good
yield OF cotton, but this crop is very uncer-
Peas and potatoes are both doing we'll
and give promise of -bountiiul harvest
The farmers through this section have
cause to congratulate themselves. Through
the agencies of their various Unions, they
have pu released goods economically and at
cheap prices, and if the crop prospects con-
tinue most of the farming class will be en-
abled to pay OFT their store accounts and
entirely cash basis.
We feel warranted in saying that less
goods have been.sold ON time to farm ers
This year than for many years previous
have long accounts against the raiser of
cotton and corn. The approach of this
prosperous era is due to the manly and
united efforts of the farmers, through the
agency OF co-operation. If they will main
tain their business it will be but a short
while until sounder condition will be
noticed not only among the agricultural
class but in all tho other trades and profess
sions for the prosperity Of the farmers in
sures the prosperity of all other men.
If is said that "the Lord helps those who
help themselves" For the last two or
three years the farmers have been working
unitedly to better their condition, and it
seems that the Lord has favored them with
the proper seasons upon this crop.
Altogether tho prospects OF the farmer
reaping an excellent harvest were never
brighter within our recollection. Peace,
plenty and prosperity reigns supreme in
our land, aud every body is happy.
