Charleston Truck Not Hurt by Cold.

Charleston, Special - The cold

not to have done much, if any. dam
age to the crops of this section. The
plants have not generally reached the
point where they would be effected,
except by very cold weather, and the
fall oil the temperature of the past
few days seems not to have been Sc
rlous enough to have done much. if
any hurt. On the contrary, it is sta
ted by the truck people that the cold
wave Is very acceptable for the pur-
pose of delaying the vegetation and
making the crops safer later in the
season when they are all above the
ground and more liable to be nippcd
by frost. The warm weather of the
winter has been threatening much
damage TO the truck people in pre-
maturely developing the crops and
continued cold weather will prove
welcome for some time To come by
the truck growers. simply that the
maturing of the crops may be de
