Weevil continued to impede the crops progress, decreasing only < olina. where the condition of the plants was reported excellent, the fpest prevented fruiting.
 I Because of the heat and drouth cotton deteriorated in most, of Texas Eand Oklahoma, according to reports. xnnd the plants made slow growth <and development in most central and Eastern districts. In Tennessee, northeastern Arkansas and southern North Carolina development ranged from fair to very good, and the plants were reported shedding badly in oklahoma, Texas and parts of Arkansas.
 The bolls were said to be opening rapidly in the southern and western portions of the belt and prematurely in many sections. Picking was in progress during the week in Texas under ideal conditions.
 The general condition of the crop, the report stated, is mostly poor to fair,, with only a few places that may be classed asl very good.
 With sufficient moisture for the proper development of corn the crop made good progress from the central Mississippi valley eastward. Cutting and fodder pulling was general in the south.
