NORTH STATE CROP BULLETIN
The Outlook as Viewed by the Depart
ment Of Agriculture.

ment of Agriculture.
Weekly Crop Bulletin, for week end
ing Monday, April 18th, l905.-Monday
and Tuesday were warm and dry and
favorable for farm work which was
resumed with vigor; the remainder of
the past week, however, was decidedly
unfavorable, both for work and the
growth of vegetation on account of the
frequent and heavy rains from the 18th
to the end of the week, and generally
low temperature which chilled the
ground. The cold, soggy soil is unfit
to be plowed, and u~nfavorable for rap
Id growth or the termination of seeds.
The temperature exceeded 80 degrees
on the 10th and 18th, but was so low
the balance of the week, that the mean
averaged nearly 2 degrees below the
normal. Freezing temperatures occur
red Monday morning Q7th) in Central
and Western North Carolina; what
damage has resulted must be reported
in the next crop bulletin; unquestion-
ably the injury to fruit of all kinds,
truck crops and Strawberries must have
Wednesday on we're quite heavy in
some counties, washing land some, and
generally causing a complete suspen-
sion of farm work. The precipitation
this week averaged over 200 above nor-
NAL. Warmer dry and sunny weather
is much needed.
Very little cotton land has been pre-
pared as yet, and the amount Of fer
tilizer used is smaller than usual; only
small patches Of cotton have been
sown in the extreme southern portion.
A large amount of land is needed for
corn, but progress in planting has been
slow; the acreage in corn will be quite
large, but, of course, the bulk of the
crop has not yet been planted, though
a few reports from the southeastern
counties state that planting has been
finished; early planted corn came up to
fairly good stands, but late planted is
terminating slowly. Tobacco plants
are rather late, and small, but seem to
be in good condition otherwise, Re-
ports on the condition of winter wheat,
oats and rye continue to be extremely
favorable; in some sections these crops
are reported the best in many years; in
others, however, though the plants
show very green and vigorous, it is
feared that abundant rains are causing
sappy growth. Clover and grasses are
also very thrifty and cattle are already
able to live on pastures in the west.
So far, truck crops have done well;
Irish potatoes are coming up nicely
and generally to good stands; prospects
for early peas are good; cabbage plants
have mostly been set. Shipments OF
lettuce and radishes have been large,
and the shipment of berries is just
beginning. The frost Monday is like
ly to have caused a severe set back to
truck crops, strawberries and gardens.
Up to Monday the prospects for fruit,
especially apples, was still favorable:
many peaches and other fruits are so
we'll set that perhaps the anticipated
damage by cold may not be serious.

Georgia Fruit in Danger.

Atlanta, Ga, Special.v.Atlanta and
vicinity experienced a considerable
drop in temperature last night and
today, and although there is no official
report on the damage OR likelihood Of
damage to vegetables and fruits, the
weather bureau being closed Sunday,
considerable apprehension is felt by
fruit and truck farmers. Reports from
the surrounding country indicate a
likelihood of frost tonight, in which
event considerable damage will be
done.

oeaJ School Tax,

News has been received in the Of
fee of the State Superintendent that
Webster, in Jackson county, has voted
a local tax for the improvement OF
public schools. Mr.. R. D. W. Conner,
of the State Superintendent office,
went up there last week and made a
speech for the tax. At that time 1t
was considered that there was a ma
jority of fifteen against the tax. Much
of the credit of the change CT sentl-
ment is due to Mr.. Connor's speech, so
the leaders in the fight at Webster
say.

CH1LpREN IN MERCY WORK.

Our attention has been called to the
occasional mercy work that is being
done by the mercy band of little folks in
Goodland.
A voluntary work by a child is fire.
quently a valuable example to older
people. It seems to be a Godlike indie
Pendence for the good, and reinforces
our belief in the saying, the child is the
father of the man. Good and merciful
in youth, good and mercifuI in age
that's the hope of progress in our state
and country.
There is an independence of child
hood. Parents have no direct control
over the desire in their children to do
noble little deeds. A cup of water vol
unfairly generously given is what makes
it of value to the giver. The motive is
where the homer lies, and that is the
child's own possession.
There IS a dependence, too, in child
hood. In their education, support and
moral training, they are the proper OBJ
jects and care Of the parents. But we
should never think Of them IN any way
as burdens; rather as delights more to
be desired than silver OF gold. Children
are the necessary luxuries Of happy hu-
man hearts, without reference to rich or
poor. They are the unspeakable bles-
sings in babYhOOd and youth, and COM
forts for declining years.
