Weekly Crop Bulletin.

Columbia, S. c., July The week
ending Monday, July lst, averaged
slightly warmer than usual, with a
maximum temperature of l02 at Bates
burg on the 25th, and minimum OF
60 at Cheraw on the 9th. The tenn
perature was generally favorable for
the growth and Development of field
crops, and there was about the normal
amount of sunshine. High winds
caused some damage to corn on the
25th.
There were numerous, scattered
showers throughout the week, gener-.
ally light, but heavy in places, with a
maximum rainfall Of zoo in Pickens
county. Cultivation made fair prog
ress where the rainfall was light, but
much land remains too wet to cult
vate, and many fields continue to be
grassy, although much grass was kill
ed during the week. There are COM
plants Of the ground becoming very
hard as it dries. Damage by hail oc-
CURED in Abbeville. Bamberg, Barn
well, Newberry and Saluda counties,
and light hail was reported from few
other points. There are numerous re-
ports Of corn and cotton fields being
abandoned on account of their foul
condition and the cost and difficulty of
cleaning them.
There was general improvement in
the condition Of cotton, greatest on
red lands that could be worked, and
in the sea island section, while on
sandy lands the plants continue to die
to some extent, and generally are not
thriving. Cotton is unusually small
for the season, but has begun to bloom
in places, although as yet it is fruiting
sparsely The general condition of
cotton continues to be unpromising.
On low-lving lands It'll decidedly off
color.
The condition Of corn varies greatly,
alathough generally poor over the
eastern half Of the State, where it is
being laid by. Upland corn looks well
over the western counties, but on bot
toms it was almost entirely destroyed,
and is now being replanted to some
extent. Planting stubble lands to
corn is also underway.
Over the greater portion of the to-
bacco regions, the plants are backward
and small, but in Kershaw County to-
bacco is doing we'll Cutting and cur
ing made slow progress in Florence
County, and has not been begun in
other sections. Rice is generally thriv-
ing. Wheat and oats are being
th7eshed. and many correspondents re-
ports the yields the best in years.
Oats were greatly damaged by rain af-
ter cutting, but the damage to wheat
was slight.
Minor crops are generally in thriy
ing condition, but peaches and plums
are rotting extensively as they ripen.
Apples continue to drop. Pastures and
gardens, with some exceptions, are
ine. On the whole, there is marked
improvement in the crop prospects,
but they are still reported discourag-

Of the southern people and ceinented a
