MAY CROP REPORT.

Since last report there have been no
complaints Is to the weather, or of any
thing else, yet the average condition of
all crops, save corn, has been lowered,
to no great extent, still the tendency is
the wrong way. Wheat and oats are most
notable in this depression, and the es-
Inmates decrese as the harvest approach
es, but with q continuation of the sea-
sons enjoyed since cotton, corn and to-
bacco have been put into the ground.
There is no reason to doubt an abnormal
yield from these crops.
Wheat.
The average of this crop is reported
at 771 against S4f last month. and the in
dications are that the average will 20
still lower.
784 represents the average of this crop,
against 814 month ago.
Rye
Comes down to 834 and is steadily GO
ing down.
Orchards.
The orchards are in a sad plight. and
the possibility of fair yield of fruit. es
pecially peaches and pears, is abandoned
by the majority of growers. The average
is 563
Promises much better, and is now es-
timated at 98ss, nearly normal.
Cotton
Is reported at 9244, and promises much
better, as the season advances.
Tobacco
Was damaged some in the outset, and
has not recovered, and is now rated at
IS per cent.
Sorghum
Promises normal, and is averaged at
92s, which probably means more, as this
crop rarely fails.
The condition of clover is stated at 90,
which is favorable.
Meadows
Are reported above this point, and
stand at 95b.
Gardens
Are pretty good, judging from the re-
port, 90.
