Weather Has Farmers GUESSING.

The peculiar condition of the
weather since spring opened has kept
the farmers guessing, and now they

been coming up very slowly and in
irregular way. From here away down
into South Carolina the same COM
plant is heard. The cold and the
lack of moisture has kept the seed
from sprouting Considerable cotton
was planted early under the stimu-
lus of the warm days of the first Of
April.
