Farmers. as a class. are reasonably

but the wintry spring and these raw
June days have been too much for
them, and reports from every section.
Of Virginia show that now they are
much discouraged. Many of them have
planted and replanted corn until they
are disheartened. What corn has come
up Is apparently not growing. In but
few sections have the farmers finished
planting. So wet has It been that no
work can be done in the fields.
Tobacco is in as deplorab'e q state
as corn. In Louisa. for instance. the
plants are ''yellowing" and the cut
worm Is working overtime and doing
terrible destruction. Oats are in bad
shape; the fruit yield is likely to be-
small-in some instances. no yield
and wheat alone seems to be hardy
enough to stand the unusual weather
stress. Farmers everywhere are send
ing UP piteous cry for more sunshine.
