CROP REPORT ON
COTTON NOT GOOD
Rains, Relieving Long Drouth,
Too Late to Help Pants
Muc! Arkansas'
Prospects.

drouth in the western portion of the
cotton belt was relieved in many To-
calities by good rains during the
week, but they came too late to be
of material benefit to the cotton
CROP" the national weather and crop
bulletin for the week ending last night
announced today '"This week was
practically rainless in much of the
eastern portion of the belt and lack
of moisture is unfavoraEly affecting
the development of the crop in many
places in this area.
Local heavy rains fell in eastern
North Carolina, which did some dam
age to cotton. The temperature aver
aged somewhat below normal in the
extreme eastern portion of the belt
usual in northern Texas and Okla
homa. Elsewhere the temperature av-
eraged about normal
Cotton made fairly satisfactory
advances IN much of the Carolinas,
but there is considerable shedding in
those states, and red spider activi-
ty is increasing in South Carolina.
CniavOrable In Georgia.
The outlook is generally unfavor-
able in Georgia where the bolls con-
tinue to open prematurely and much
damage has been done by rust, spider
and weevil; the prospect for a top
crop is poor, especially in the central
and northern portions. Rust and
spider activity continue in Alabama
and Mississippi; the soil is very dry
in northern Alabama, but the showers
in Mississippi caused some improy-
ment by checking premature opening.
The week was r. ther unfavorable
in Louisiana where frequent rains in
terrupted picking and lowered the
grade; considerable shedding is re,
ported in that state.
1.-The severe drouth was relieved in
much o. Texas and Oklahoma, but the
rain came too late to be of material
benefit in many localities, and it caus-
ed much shedding in Oklahoma. Where
ever the plants still possess sufficient
vitality in these states, however, the
moisture gives some prospect of top
crop. Picking is progressing rapidly
in Texas, but the yield is poor and
most of the crop is being gathered at
the first picking.
Arkansas Prospects.
'The showers gave fairly good ad-
vance on much OF the lowlands of Ar
kansas, and the condition of the crop
is fairly satisfactory on the lower
ground in the central and northeast
portions of the state, but poor else
where.
"Bolls are opening we'll to the
northern limits of the belt, and pick
ing and ginning are progressing rap
idly in the more southern districts;
the labor situation for harvest IS ap-
parently we'll in hand.
