Gentlemen--May dawned bright and
sunny. yet the lands were too wet for
cultivation owing to heavy rains du-
ring the latter days of April. A rain
occurred on the fourth, however, not
heavy enough to interfere with farm
work. The lands were beginning to
dry up sufficiently for general cultiva-
ton. Good weather prevailed until the
eth when another rain occurred, rather
heavy in some portions of the Mont
gomery territory, interfering with
work to some extent week of ex-
ceptionally fine weather followed until
the 18th when another rain, more ex-
cessive than the rains Of the 4th and
9Th. which put an end to cultivation,
which at that time was making salts
