Favorable Crop Prospect.

Old residents in Mississippi who
make a careful study Of weather con
ditions r confident that the dry
and open winter that has been ex-
perienced in the State this year a.-
ours a favorable farming season. 1t
is held by these observers that such
winters are invariably followed
by bountiful h~arvests. The past
two winter and spring seasons have
been exceptionally wet, and this also
gives ground for tile hope that con-
dltions will be favorable.
