been made with farm work. The
weather during the month Of
May was cool enough to allow
men and teams to go the limit,
which they seem to have done
Judging from the progress re-
ported. One week of cold
weather checked corn somewhat
but in some sections apparently
aided wheat slightly. Previous
to the rains of the Oath to 9th
there was a little complaint Of
lack of moisture over a part of
the state, especially in a few
counties in the Southwest sec
ton, while too much moisture
retarted work in some of the
lowland counties of the South
cast. Taken as a whole, how
ever, weather conditions for the
month were above the AVERAGE
Rainfall during the month of
May, at Columbia, was 1925

1.27 inches.

is estimated at 50, varying but
slightly in the several sections.
Stand last year was 81; 1910,
.715. Necessary replanting this
year is attributed to poor seed
and to hard rain following plant
ing. With good seed harder to
secure than ever before, the
reasonably good stand of corn
proves the value of the "test
your seed corn campaign. Many
farmers planted 2-year-old seed
with good results. There is
some complaint of poor corn sold.
