The Weather and the Crops.

New Orleans Picayuue. MAY %
The past week has been a period of
intermittent rains and hot spells. ON
The whole the weather has been ia
vorable in the Cotton Belt, although
too much rain has been reported in
portions of Texas. Oklahoma, and
Arkansas. Elsewhere the weather
has been favorable with seasonable
temperature and timely showers.
Some appreh ension has been caused
by high water in the Mississippi and
Red Rivers. but so far there has been
no important overflow and it is gen
orally hoped that the high water will
pass away without the inundation of
any considerable volume of cotton
land.
Where the crop has not been ham
pered by excessive rains, good pro
gress has been made. Where the
rains have been excessive. particular
lv i'm the northwest section ofthe Cot
ton Belt. the crop has been delayed
and is now backward. On the whole
the cotton crop may be considered to
be making fair progress, and with a
few weeks of good weather any back
Wardness that may be experienced in
the more northerly sections viii
have been overcome. In the more
southerly portions of the belt partic-
ularly i'm Texas, the crop is We'll ad
vanced and we'll ahead of last season.
