CROP OUTLOOK.

Few Days of Unseasonably Cool Weather
Does Much Damage.
Special to the TimeS-Democrat
Brookhaven, June 29-The condition
of the cotton crop in this section was
near perfect on June l. The stand
was good, the crop was clean and we'll
worked, and the outlook most promis-
ing. Since that time there has been a
falling off in the condition estimated
at from 10 to Is per cent, on account
of the dry weather which has prevailed
in most localities throughout the
month, and especially on account of
the unseasonably cool weather which
prevailed from the 22d to the oath.
This did the plant more harm than the
drouth. In some neighborhoods in
this and adjoining counties there has
not been good shower of rain in
eight weeks.
Farmers generally report the plant
healthy and fruiting we'll and free
from grass and weeds, though the
growth has been checked by the dry
and cool weather.
Labor has been scarce, but the dry
weather has kept this from being so
seriously felt. Farm stock is in good
condition.
The early corn has been very seri-
ously damaged by the drouth, the loss
on this account being estimated at
from 40 to so per cent. Some farmers
are cutting down their old corn for
forage and will plant Mexican June
corn and try second crop on the
same land.

Fxtend II Mt Once

The 1. C. Has Bought Out the Pearl
Extend 1t at Once.
The Illinois Central Railroad Com
pany will build railroad to Monticel-
10, as stated in our last issue. The
company has bought the railroad of
the Pearl River Lumber Company,
which line will be Strengthened and
put in frst-class condition for traffic.
The grade will then be completed to
this place, and we understand that the
road will be built on to Franklinton,
La, at an early date. The surveyors
have moved their camp to town, and
are occupying the Wilson old hotel,
from which place they go out every
day for the purpose of running lines.
Two contractors were here this week
one from Illinois and one from Mis-
souri-with a view to bidding on the
route. All bids will have to be sub
mitted by next Saturday, and it will
probably be ten days later before the
contract is let. By the first of August
work should begin on the grading, and
it is calculated that by the first of Oc-
tober trains will be running to Mon
ticello. There are only about seven
miles of new grading to be done,
though of course considerable work
will have to be done on the lumber
road before it is accepted for regular
passenger and freight service.-LaaC-
