TIE CROPS REVIVED.
he Rains Sunday Broke the
Severe Drought.
e Prospects For a Top Crop Of Cotton Are
Unfavorab!e. Tobacco Fired by Hot
Weather.

The Weekly Crop Bulletin, issued by
e Weather Bureau here says that the
Gather during the week ending Monday,
uly 23rd, was extremely unfavorable
,r agricultural interests. Crops through
ut the greater portion of North Carolina
uttered severely from drought practi-
ally continuous since July 1st, and in
ONE sections the most severe on rec
I'd in quarter of century. Intense
leat with glaring sunshine prevailed the
entire week; maximum temperatures
'anging from 80 degrees to over 100 de-
grees occurred every day over the en-
tire State except the most elevated re-
gions of the west, and the means aver
aged nearly degrees daily above nor
NAL. Hot winds dried out the soil to
considerable depths, leaving it hard and
refractory. Almost no rain occurred ex-
cept very few scattered showers on
the 18th, until the close of the week,
but on Sunday, 22d, thunder showers
were quite general and the rainfall sur
ficent in amount to check further in
jury and revive crops not irreparably
damaged.
All the staple crops deteriorated rap
idly during the week. Old corn suffer-
ed most; on light sandy soil and on up
lands it was burnt and yellowed to the
ears, and much of it completely ruined.
Young corn just coming into silk and
tassel, when it requires abundant mois-
ture, was also much injured. but will re-
cover to a large extent under favorable
conditions.
Cotton naturally withstands drought
well, but growth was severely checked,
and many reports were received that the
crop was shedding leaves and forms.
while in some sections plants have died.
In southern counties cotton is already
blooming to the very top, an unfavorable
tsign for tie top crop; rust is reported to
be spreading over southern fields. How
ever, the beneficial rains Sunday will re-
vive cotton rapidly and make a fairly
good yield possible.
Forward tobacco was materially dam
aged by drought and fired badly tobacco
is ripening very fast; cutting and curing
have become quite general in the south
ern and eastern portions; cures are re-
ported to be fairly good.
Many gardens have been almost COM
pletely ruined and are quite beyond re-
covery. Peanuts and sweet potatoes
have been checked in growth, but not
greatly injured; peas and beans were
badly burned. Melons and even fruit
have not matured properly, but on the
whole both crops are fine.
Pastures have failed except in the west,
where an excellent crop of hay has been
secured Streams and wells are very
low.

ALLEN hesitated about registering him be-
cause he looked too young. Rigsbee in
sisted on the negro being registered, but
Mr.. Allen still refused until he could
have absolute proof as to his age. This
Rigsbee would not swear to- neither
would other witnesses. Because of Mr..
Aliens determination to comply with the
law, Rigsbee threatened him with prose-
cution. This should be a case in point
for President McKinley's attention, for
Rigsbee is a Federal office holder, dep

Federal business to intimidate a State
officer in the discharge of his duties.
