from this parish daily during the sea-
son, which lasts three or four weeks.
Vegetables for supplying the northern
markets follow the berry crop. Later
comes cotton. This year the yield of
cotton is unusually large and great de-
pendence has been placed upon the
success of this import.nt product. The
European war has so affected the mar
kets that locally not Il bale can be
sold at any price at this time. While
the price of food stuffs went up, the
price of cotton went down. 1t is ex-
pected to 90 up again ut any time.
