P|TTSYLVAN|A CROP
TO Be CURTA|LEO

Chatham, June S.-The drought
which has lasted several weeks was
on Thursday afternoon broken, maxi
ing the season on Friday and Satur-
day ideal for transplanting. Very few
farmers had planted any tobacco and
much of that planted early in the past
month was badly missing and not
growing Preparations had been
made for one Of the largest crops
planted in this county for many
years, but this will be curtailed by
the season coming much later than
usual, the farmers of Pittsylvaniai
county usually having the crop in
by the first of June. Coming this
late the planting that this time as
usual as it viii not have sufficient
time to develop thoroughly. In the
section about SIX miles west OF here
no rain fell, but in the Veal neigh
borhood a severe hail and rain storm
prevailed and some damage was done
TO wheat, bat so far heard from.
covered only a very small area. The
farmers in every section in which
rain fell are eXerting every effort to
get all their crop planted. The corn
crop has not suffered very much, but
in some sections the report is that
the wheat and oats crop has been
injured. Gardens are looking we'll
and the wheat crop is very good.
