CROP PROSPECTS
GOOD IN VIRGINIA
Condition of Most Produce Above
Average in Contrast With
Poor Outlook in 1885.

3y the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va, June l2.-Vir-
ginia crop prospects are generally
above ths average this year and the
condition Of most growing produce
presents marked contrast to the
poor outlook of June /, 1885, the
State Cooperative Crop Reporting
Service announced today.
Weather conditions during May
were favorable for farm work, the
service pointed out, and rapid prog
ress was made with planting Of all
crops except tobacco. Setting out of
tobacco plants was retarded by the
poor condition Of the young leaf, dry
weather in the southern part of the
State tobacco belt and the ravages of
blue mold. Many growers reported
they were unable to obtain enough
tobacco plants to set the interdcd
acreage.
While cold, dry weather early in
May delayed the progress of most
crops, the latter part of the month
was very favorable and Improvement
was rapid, State Crop Statistician
Henry M. Taylor pointed out. BY
June ! most of the corn and cotton
had been planted and were progress
ing, although the stand Of early
planted fields was poor.
Fruit prospects are above the
average in all sections Of the State,
Taylor said. and the condition OF
farm gardens also is favorable.
