Weekly Crop Bulletin.

Vicksburg, July 1.-During the week
ended June 2S, there was an excess oi
temperature and deficiency OF rainfall
in nearly all sections Of the State.
Some improvement is reported in cot.
ton, and blooms are becoming more gen
eral. Corn needs rain badly, also gar
dens and vegetation generally. Local
showers have benefited crops over linn
tied areas, but general rain is neces
sary in order to improve the outlook.
The cutworm has injured cotton and
corn seriously in many sections, anc
the plants are late and small.
Oats and wheat in the northern por
tion of the State arc turning out well
also fruit; but gardens are suffering fol
moisture.
Meadows are nearly burned up.

WEST vRGINIAs OPPORTUNITY
To Find New Markets for Her Coal II Her
Miners Keep at Work.


Miners Keep at Work.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, July 6.-Chief
Mine Inspector j. Paul, who is keep
ing in touch with the several coal
fields in West Virginia, said last night
that there is at present no indication
that the miners of this state will 60
out. "This," he said, sis West Vir-
ginia's opportunity to find new mar
kets for her coal. If the miners of
other neighboring states go out and
there is suspension of coal produc-
tion in those states, West Virginia can
very nearly supply the demand.
In 1895 West Virginia produced one
fifth of all the coal produced in the
states of West Virginia, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois,
and this when the collieries were run
ming at less than half their capacity.
If this general strike is inaugurated
and the West Virginia miners keep at
work, West Virginia coal will find new
markets and the state will be able to
hold these markets, after the strike
ends, indefinitely"
