The yield will fer exceed the crop
of last year, and will no doubt be
the largest crop ever grown in the
state. The young corn on stubble lands has
been greatly injured by drought in many
localities. The crops on the river lotions

now maturing, ard if there is no disaster
from floods the total yield will be largely
increased. Rics--This crop hos been
slightly injured by drought The harvest
ing is now in progress south OF Charleston.
In all probability the crop will DO consider
ably above the yield of last year, as the
acreage has been increased. Tobacco-The
acreage Of this crop has been largely in
creased over that of last year. Most Of it
has been harvested and made ready for
market. 1t has yielded a large crop and OF
a superior quality. TINS is comparatively
new enterprise, but none is more remun-
erative to the farmer.
