Raleigh, Aug. 22.-The drought
which prevailed in the western part
of North Carolina for several months
and which did serious damage to
crops. is definitely broken and indi-
cations now point to fairly good
Yields even in the drought sections,
according to a report on crop condi-
tions in the State just sent to the
Department of Agriculture in Wash
ington by Frank Parker, chief statis-
tician of the State-Federal Crop Re-
porting Service. Stands of cotton and
corn are still irregular in the counties
where the drought was most pro-
nounced, but with late fall good
yields are in prospect
"Prospects are very bright for corn,
peanuts, late hay and pasture and for
fruit left on trees" the report says.
Except in very limited spots, rain
fall has been plentiful recently and
showers are continuing at present.
Pastures have improved wonderfully
with August rains and even in the
drought areas, conditions are rapidly
approaching normal.
"The water supply is now plentiful
in all areas, and, with continued IA
vorable seasons, no further lack of
water is anticipated. In some of the
eastern counties, rains have been ex-
cessive but not particularly disas-
trOuS.'
The only part of the State where
there is even a possibility of feed
shortage for livestock is in a few
western counties where the most Sc
rious drought conditions prevailed,
Parker said. But even there prospects
are good in the lowland areas. The
upland pastures are still decidedly
backward, their only hope for recov-
erv being a favorable fall. Pasture
