and deeper cultivation by four
mule plows; liberal use of ferti-
liers have helped the prospect
considerably. At Ilatoutville
and the section surrounding the
crop looks fairly well. some very
good cane is seen, and a possible
three-fourths normal crop will be
made. Corn and peas have been
abundant in this section. At

Island crop prospects for cane
are about two-thirds of a normal
crop. Corn and hay, in large
quantities, have been made and
housed in the best Of condition,

have to buy mule feed before
corn coT'es again.
Sweet potatoes seem to be a
good crop this year, but in some
localities the tuber is infested
with a worm that makes it unfit
for food other than for stock.

Flowing and planting is in active

large scale, has been going on all

seed cane will be made; the pla.

cane for 1913 as they have no
cane for the mill. From all in
