THE FARMER 4 ND MECHANIC
Cron of Hay.

Crop conditions in this county are
less favorable this year than last,
owing, perhaps, to the excessive rain
fall here during the month OF June.
By actual measurement. according to
the weather report from this section,
there was 1928 inches Of rainfall du-
ring June
The wheat crop was, from all ap-
the best that has been rals-
ed in Caldwell for many years, but it
is not turning out as we'll as many OF
the farmers had anticipated In most
cases the crop will not average more
than from 2-3 to "a Of What was
expected. The grain seems to be
we'll matured and the shcrtness Of
the crop is thought to be due to the
rain beating the wheat out Of the
head before it could be harvested.
In many sections the corn crop
will not average more than IL crop,
especially in the bottoms, while the
upland corn is expected to be better.
This is due to the wet weather, just
at the time when the corn needed
work the worst. In many cases the
corn appears to be fairly well de-
veloped, but on close inspection it is
found to be short cared and the ears
not well filled with grain.
There has been quite a lot of hay
made in this county so far and it is
expected to be the best crop that will
be gathered this season.
The apple crop appears to be good
and pretty evenly distributed over
the country and mostly Of the winter
varieties. Peaches are poor this sea-
son, but there is a few of the late va
riety in evidence. They will be small

WHEAT CROP SHORT.
Seventy Per Cent. Crop of COrn-Hay
EycaIJant-AnDle CrOD Short.

Seventy Yer cent. crop OI SOFH-K1dy
ExceIlent-Apple Crop Short
The condition of crops in Western
North Carolina is not of the brightest
outlook. Very little of the wheat has
as yet been threshed, but while some
of the yields of that already threShed
have been from fair to good, yet the
majority Of the wheat crop will not
show more than a 60 per cent yield.
Wheat was greatly damaged by the
heavy rains which prevailed in this
section from the time wheat began to
blossom. causing the filling of the
heads to deteriorate n rust to affect
the stalk. The wheat which has been
threshed is bringing bou s1.25 per
bushel. The condition of the corn
crop on the hill and sides
is very good, but much of the bottom
land has been drowned out this sea-
son, owing to the heavy rains. At
present, with corn just entering the
tasseling stage, the prospect is for
about a IS to 10 per cent crop. The
oat crop has been greatly damaged
by the ain also, and many soat fields
have been taken almost completely
with weeds. The oats have already
been harvested in almost all cases.
This year has been one of the finest
in many seasons for the hay crop,
and many fine fields of timothy had
nave been harvested already, with yet
much still standing. In some cases,
liz fNSSS9 ittN liz o@I1
of hay considerably
AS to the fruit crop, the apple crop
Is hardly UP to the average, reports
showing good healthy crops in some
of the northern exposed coveS, but re-
ports from farmers owning richards
on level land, say that the apple crop
is not very good, and many apples are
faulty. While there are some fine
peaches raised here this year, many
of the trees are not bearing the best
quality.
Crops throughout Western North
Carolina including Buncombe, Hay
wood, Henderson and Pennsylvania
counties, from reports received here
are all about the same, all having
been badly interfered with more or
less, by almost incessant rains up to
three weeks ago, varying with the
amount of low farming lands in the
counties mentioned.
Farmers in this section are not dis
heartened at the outlook, but are
hoping that the hot, clear weather
prevailing now with occasional show
ers, will bring the corn crop out con
siderably. The wheat crop in this sec
ton is hardly a money crop, the hay
and corn crops being the ones from
which the chief evenue is derived in
grains and feed and the apple crop in
fruits.

CATAWBA.
CORN "A FAILURE.
Wheat and Oats Above the Average.
Cotton Damaged 80 Per Cent.


Crop conditions in Catawba are
about as follows, from best lnforma-
ton I can get: Wheat and oats
nearly all threshed. The of
both is a little above last year. Wheat
estimated from rs per cent to 50 per
cent Of general average; about so
per cent will possibly be the general
average. Oats are reported to be al
most an average crop. Corn on low
lands is a total failure, as rains have
been frequen. since May 10th. Up
land corn has good stalk but not ear
ing so we'll. Estimates vary from
half crop to three-fourths. Will not
average over 65 per cent, according
to reports senI in.
Cotton is growing fine now, but is
very late. All reports say off 20 per
cent to 80 per cent over last year.
Some place it as low as half crop.
Can't make over IS per cent to 20
cent under most favorable conditions.
More clover than usual has been
sown, and a fine yield for spring crop.
Pea-vine hay is very promising as
it has been ~seasonable. Fine pros
poets for sweet potatoes; considering
i season continues, the yield
will be above average. No tobacco
raised in the county.

It is hard to get at the raj cron

in Edenton and Yeopin townships are
much better than those in other sec

saying very much. No tobacco or
wheat is grown in ChoWan. The pres

follows: Peanuts, cotton and corn are
