What q Farmers Club May Do.
A few days ago few farmers met
at the home of J. West Harris. about
four miles from this place, and or
ganized a farmers club. After the
organization, there was an informal
talk on the cultivation of cotton in
it's early shape. The farmers who
had tried the weeder a season or two
were delighted with it. If it is run
over the crop twice before it is thin
ned it makes the work lighter. It
was suggested that the weeder should
be used just as the cotton is coming
UP and again in a week. The object
of the club is self improvement and
the exchange of plans and methods
of work. Those who know it all, and
the other class who wish to learn
nothing, will not be acceptable mem
bers of the club. This organization
should be formed in every township.
They will supplement the work of
The Progressive Farmer and bring
about a much better condition on the
farms. CHAS. PETTY.

Planting cotton is now very near
ly completed; come replanting is
necessary where grass made SO much
headway that fields cannot be clean
ed without injuring the cotton; these
will be plowed over and replanted:
chopping cotton is well advanced but
not yet finished good stands are gen
orally reported; the low temperatures
during the latter portion of the week
caused some cotton to turn yellow
and die. Corn planting is not finish
ed, low-lands having hardly been
touched on account of their wet con-
dltion; cultivating corn is proceed
ing, good stands having been secured,
but most fields are still very foul;
there are many complaints of dam
age to corn bv cut and bud worms, to
the extent even of running the stands
in places. A laroe portion of the to-
bacco crop has been transplanted but
the work has not been completed in
the most important central-northern
section of the State, and here, on ac-
count of inability to transplant, due
to the wet, unprepared lands, many
olant beds are overgrown and nearly
ruined; early set tobacco is being cu1-
tivated and appears to be doing well.
Reports on the condition of wheat,
oats and rye continue to be favor
able. with comparative little damage
by rust or Hessian fly. Glover and
meadows are fine. Peanuts are COM
ing up nicely. Many sweet potato
slips were transDlanted during the
week; Irish potatoes look healthy,
but the damage by the potato beetle
seems considerable. Gardens and
truck crons are in fair condition.
Reports on the condition of fruits
are rather diversified; in the west,
fair, even large crop of both apples
and peaches is indicated. while in the
east considerable dropping of fruit is
reported, though probably not more
than usual at this season; cherries
are ripening, and wild blackberries
have set fruit nicely. The strawberry
season is practically over except in
the west.

Cotton Outlook Poor.

The reduction of cotton acreage in
Cumberland between 20 and 80 per
cent; an increase of 10 to Is per
cent in corn. There may be a change
in the above in the final wind-up for
the reason that some of the cotton
fields are being plowed up and corn
and other things planted instead.
Owing to the wet weather and the
scarcity of labor, the crop is badly
in the grass, which makes the out
look for an average crop exceeding
ly doubtful. J. III. CURRIE.

Farmers in Best Condition Ever Known.
[ think the outlook for farmers is
quite encouraging. Crops generally
have very good stand, and with the
present warm weather, are growing
fast. l think the acreage is about the
same as last year for all crops ex-
cept cotton and Irish potatoes. Cot
ton acreage as far as my observation
goes, has been reduced I think at
least 20 per cent, while the potato
crop has been increased at least 10
10 10 per cent over last year. A
great many farmers have reduced
their cotton acreage as much as 25
or 80 per cent, while a few have
planted more this year than last.
Only very few have increased their
cotton acreage, however. Labor is
scarce; all the best able-bodied ne
Sgroes have left the farms for the
lumber woods and mills. I believe the
farmers of my county are in better
financial condition than ever before

No Decrease in Cotton Acreage.

Replying to your card concerning
conditions of farmers and farming in
Camden County, I would say that
farmers are generally in fairly
prosperous condition. Acreage of all
crops is about the same as last year.
No appreciable decrease in cotton.
Potatoes Qrish) are growing nicely,
and as this is tht principal money

Inmates of several of our farmers
from the different sections of the

cotton acreage from Is to 25 per
cent. Peanuts have been increased
at least 15 per cent, and the crop
outlook is good. The farmers are
up with their work and have their
