NASH.
A DECIDED FALLING OFF
Cotton and Tobacco Damaged 25 Per
Cent. Increase in Acreage of Wheat
and Dat CPOD Below the Average.

In a brief summary Of crop cOndl-.
tons as they exist in Nash county,
taking as a basis for the estimate the
opinion Of leading practical farmers
from almost every quarter Of the coun-
ty. it is safe to say that all growing
crops show a decided falling off as
compared with the conditions same
time last year.This is especially the case
with the cotton and tobacco crops,
which nave been damaged fully tWen-
ty-fiVe per cent. in relation to cotton
on account of h excessive ain OF
June and the cool nights and days
following the ~doWnpOur. leading to-
bacco cover make the estimate that
this crop is from twenty to thirty
five per cent. under the average IN
size and quality, n the fine cures
heretofore characterizing the armers
of Nash, viii not be so noticeable this
season. Curing is well under way,
but the texture of the weed is far
from the usual fine grade produced
in Nash.
While corn has suffered considera-
bly,, the increase in acreage planted
will offset the deterioration or short
age which might be reasonably ex-
pected, were there is only the usual
acreage planted. In many sections Of
Nash there has been a decided in
crease in the acreage seeded in wheat
and reports are to the effect that there
will be a good yield. However this crop
is not extensively raised, though it
can be at small cost and of a fine
quality. h oat crop has been far
below the average and in many in
stances a failure on account of unfa-
Vorable seasons. The farmers have
planted a considerably larger area in
peas and this crop, as also the hay
crop promises an undan yield.
From the peanut growing sections Of
the county come favorable reports OF
good crops. Many farmers are en-
gaging more extensively in the stock
business and this fall will probably
develop an unprecedented year in the
increased total number of pounds OF
homemade meats. The poultry and
Hairy business shows an increase IN
volume and in many sections this is
proving a profitable venture on the
part of certain individuals.
Despite the unfavOrable conditions
as to cotton and tobacco, the farmers
of Nash will meet their obligations it
sare and judgment are exercised in car
ing, storing and marketing their pro-
duce. It is only the weakened and
itinerant class of a~griculturiSts in
Nash who Will allow conditions to
down. them.

CORN ALMOST A FAILURE.
Seventy Per Cent. Crop of Cotton
Below the Average.

The condition Of crops in North
ampton county is generally poor.
The corn crop is almost a failure,
except on the best land and where
it has been particularly we'll cult
voted. I should say that the condi-
ton of corn, expressed as a percen-
tage, is about SO.
The peanut crop is below the av-
erage; in many fields the stand is
bad and the crop is late. Condition
about 70 per cent.
Cotton, as is usual at this period,
has improved within the last three
weeks, but much of it planted the
second time and great damage was
done to the stand by the wet wealth
er and cotton lice-especia1ly in
fields where cotton was planted last
year. The condition of the cotton
crop is about equal to that Of peanuts.
The Indications are. at present. for
not more than 70 per cent. Of a nor
NAL crop.
These are the chief crops in this
sections, as the quantity of whea
and obacc daised is very small.

CROP OUTLOOK IN NORTH
CAROLINA
CONTINUED from Page Six

ern section of Moore county does not
raise wheat and oats. They raise
fruits.
The corn crop in Moore County will
fall short Of the average crop, about
25 per cent. The corn crOp has suffered
for rain in some SectiOnS: other sec
tons the rain has been too much, con-
sequently the crop is too sappy and the
larger portion Of our farmers say they
will not gather a full crop of corn.
The average in corn crop is larger
than usual in Moore County. The
cotton crop in Moore County will be
an average crop. Cotton is on the
late order but looks we'll and the
farmers report a fair crop. There is
more grain in our county. | mean

There is a fair crop of apples and

COTTON, CORN, PEANUTS SHORT.

Cotton so Per Cent. Corn 25 Per Cent
and Peanuts rs Per Cent of Aver
age Crop.
Your request relative to the crop
conditions in and around this section
duly to hand and upon inquiry [
find the following estimates which
prevail in this and Immediate adjOin-
ing territory, viz:
Corn, 25 per cent: cotton, 80 per
cent; and peanuts under the most
favorable circumstances will mo- ex-
ceed rs per cent of an average crop.
The cotton and peanut crop may
slightly improve if seasons are IA
vorable from now and we have a late
fall, but the corn crop is by far the
shortest here in many years. Some
estimate the corn crop for the county
will not supply the remand until
Christmas.
The seasons have been most unfa-
Vorable during the cultivation period.
All varieties of the crop were drowned
and badly damaged during the early
spring. These conditions prevailed
for yer six weeks during which time
the crops needed most attention.
We now have a drOuth and all the
crops in this section are badly in need
of rain. This condition has prevailed
for about three weeks.
We find, however, that our farmers
have been very conservative in the
uses Of supplies this year, especially
after the rains began. In fact the
business interests have been very con-
sentative in making advances.
The other minor crop may be esti-
mated per above.

Conditions Are Varied.

Conditions-in Orange county are
varied. The farmer who keeps stock
and makes q lot of has ex-
ce1lent crops. These farmers are loan
ing money and living upon the cash
basis. One such man, Mr.. J. w. Ben
nett, sOWed four bushels OF wheat and
reaped sixty-three. Another farmer
near - who keeps one mule sowed
five bushels Of wheat, used five bags of
fertilizer, and reaped thirty bushels.
It will be the same way with cotton
and corn. Orange is a great county.
The people are turning to stock rails
ing. One Of our farmers has now
twenty-five colts and eighty head of
cattle. His land is growing rich and
he will get fine crops every year.In a
few years the entire county will be
devoted to stock raising.

ORANGE.
COTTON INJURED 25 PER CENT.
Stock Raising Proving More Profitable
Than Farming.

The corn crop in Orange County
this year has been very good. We
may say that it rates one
On the other hand. cotton has not
been SO good. 1t has been affected
both by heavy rains and by drouth.
It can be rated at seventy-fve. The
wheat crop has been exceptionally
fine. In some sections the yield has
been much above that of any previous
year. General Julian S. Carr thresh-
ed out over five thousand bushels out
at O~cconneechee farm. There is
very little tobacco in this part of
the county, but what little there is
has been turned out well.
Much interest has been taken this
year in stock raising. A German
Coach Stallion has been purchased at
a price of $4,000, and colts from him
are selling at $50. Stock raising
has proven more profitable than farm
ing and the time will soon come when
nearly every farmer in this section
will have a stock farm of his own.
