SEASON
JUST ORDINARY

Weather conditions in this section
OF the rice belt as favoring the
planting of the crop have not been
up to expectations during the month
OF April, just past. Rains and much
cool weather have worked a hardship
on the farmers, who though putting
forth every effort to get in big
crop are somewhat handicapped
cratic behavior of the weather man.
In spite of the conditions, though,
a greater part Of the crop is in the
ground and generally what is up is
looking we'll.
The real planting season came
this year early in March, but as it
was not guaranteed to endure, most
of the planters, realizing the price
and scarcity of good seed, kept their
supply in the bin, awaiting the ad-
| vent of another moon, when accord
ing to the calendar the planting sea-
son would be right.
The recent rains have aleviated
all fear Of scarcity of water for the
coming crop and in general the
farmers are confident.
The corn crop, which is double
that of any past season, is looking
fine in spite of the cool weather, as
are also the potatoes and other small
truck. The cotton though is said tc
be suffering to some extent.
1t is pleasing to note this year the
excellent gardens that adorn every
farm yard, and in fact every towr
yard too. Many of the vacant lot
in Welsh which have heretofore
borne only obnoxious weeds are nov
blooming in edible vegetation. Gar
den sas should do something thi
summer to alleviate the hardships o
the high cost of living.
