Cotton Crop Report for June.

The New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat Of Monday published its re
port Of the condition Of the cotton
crop for the month Of June, as re-
ceived from 1874 special corresponds
ents covering the entire cotton belt
Its editorial summary Of the situa-
ton is as follows:
The Times-Dcmocrat herewith

of the cotton crop during the month
of June The consensus of opinion
il to the following effect:
Distinct improvement has been

Aberdeen, Miss, June 3O.-The
cotton crop since the LIST of June
has kept pace with favorable wealth
er conditions and reliable character
of labor, and as a rule the plant is
very promising. There are reports,
however, that some Of the cotton is
smaller and more backward than
the date and favorable weather war
rant. These reports are sufficiently
numerous and wen authenticated to
be considered in a rounding up of
the situation, and are explained by
lack of proper cultivation in the
earlier stages of the season. None
of the original acreage has been
abandoned, and labor is sufficient
for handling the crop rs pitched.
With ample labor supply to start
with the acreage could easily have

been 80 per cent greater on lands
already opened. No insects of any
character have thus far been re-
ported.
Okolona, Miss, June 30.-The
cotton crop has improved wonder
fully in the last few weeks very lit
tie, if any, Of the acreage has been
abandoned. Labor is adequate to
work the present crop, and there
are no injurious insects in this sec
ton The recent rains have brought
out the crop considerably in the
last week, and this section has the
best prospect for years.
West Point, Miss, June 30
There has been a steady improve
ment in the condition Of the cotton
crop throughout the month of June,
the weather being hot and dry al
most without exception; allowing
much work to be accomplished.
Not a single acre has been abandon
ed, and the scant supply Of labor has
kept the work in hand. Not a sin
gle instance Of destructive insects
has been reported A few sections
have experienced showers, but the
major part Of this territory, while
not suffering, would welcome a gen
eral rain. Cotton fruiting nicely
and the prospect continues fine.
Starkville, Miss, June 30-The
{ /. / I'll
county have been favorable to the
growth Of cotton during the month
Of June and the farmers have avail
ed themselves Of the hot, dry wealth

tivation The crop shows a good
Improvement since the last report,
and all of the original acreage is be
ing cultivated, though the supply
Of labor is scarce and the efficiency
is poor, while the price of labor is
high Yet, owing to the splendid
weather for cultivation, the crop, as
a whole, is in a fine condition and
the prospects are excellent.

cotton crop has greatly improved in
this section since the last report,
and no acreage has been abandoned.
/ The supply Of labor is very short;
in fact, it will be impossible to
gather a big crop Of cotton. As yet
there have been no reports of de
structiVe insects.
Macon, Miss, June 3O.-Since
/ the last report weather conditions
have been almost perfect and in
consequence the cotton plant is
growing and fruiting nicely A few
grown bolls have been reported.
None of the original acreage has
been abandoned, and though labor
is not abundant, the farmers in this
section viii be able to cultivate and
harvest their crops, with good
weather conditions.
