LONG DROUGHT IS
BROKEN by RAIN

Newport News, Va, June AL
though the rain of yesterday after
noon is expected to relieve the situa-
ton to some extent truck farmers
in Elizabeth City and York counties
declare that the drought Of the last
several months has practically ruined
the early potato crop. The truckers
give it as their opinion that the yield
of potatoes will not be as much az
three bushels Ia ore planted. thus
causing the farmer considerable
monetary loss and making the crop
only about one~eiEhth of what ii
shoaid be-
II is also said by the truckers that
the dry weather checked the carly
pea crop and practically cut short the
strawberry crop. while the tomato
and corn crop viii suffer unless there
is a1nl n q abundance within z few
days.
The rain yesterday was short lived,
although much water fell in Eamp-
ron and over portion Of Elizabeth
City county. There was practically
no rain at Fox Hill and IN the Harris
creek section. according To reports
received in the city last night.
