ccrtinued promising in all districts, and were beginning to ripen in southern counties during the last week, when gar dening was very well advanced, with middle counties. nearly all early vege- tables up to good stands, and English peas in bloom over most of the State.
 The first four days of April were gen orally favorable for preparation and planting, through the 3d and 4th were cool and unfavorable for growth; light to heavy frosts in middle and northern counties on morning of 4th. nipped tender vegetables and caused some further dam age to fruit in the northern portion of tho State. Planting of upland corn Is nearing completion in southern districts and is well under way in northern coun- stands, though cut worms are slightly damaging in a few localities. Cotton planting is well advanced in southern counties. and getting under way in the middle district; some of the early plant ed is up to fairly good stands. Gardens continue generally promising, though warm. showery weather would benet1t all trucking crops: strawberries continue promising, with some being shipped from southern counties.
 Recent reports show that the freeze of March 18th killed peaches, pears and piums in some northern counties; still the fruit prospect over the southern four itfths of the State continues bright, with irdicatons that the yield of peaches will be larger than for several years past. Wheat and oats continue promising.

Subsequent bulletins, to be published weekly during the crop season, will contain quotations from reports of correspondents.
