/ fujlDr- we nave Dctn blessed with Tine
rains. which have added much tn the
! life. health and animation of ou, pco-
pie. rs well as the lasting good and en-
IiycnIng effect produced on vcSctatiOn
| Onr crops, considering the very dry
weather (Which until recently changed
ioi the vet, are remarkably good, and
IN som" sections of the Corner The crops
0t both cotton and com would bc hard
to slrpass.
Since harvesting, there has been ::
good deal Of time devoted by he farm
crs to pea culture. We are glad TO scc
that oar farmers are taking 50 much
interest i'll lcGnrd To their own interests
| and that they are cOgnizant of the fact
that the production of peas and pea
vine hay rank by the side Of cotton
and corn, il not surprising either, while
its main quality is to build up land
which has been pulled down by the
former crops, and to preserve it to the
farmer for more abundant crops in
future years. We would like to soc
even more land s0wn down in peas.
