Slight Crop Damage,
County Agent Tells
Some Bridges Out,
With Rising Creeks;
Few Roads Rouqh

The 14.4 inches of rainfall
which fell during November,
much of which came within the
past two weeks, did little damage
to crops, but lowered the grade
of cotton in the fields from one

was washed down along roads,
Big Black creek and other streams
were high to near capacity, with
water flooding into low fields
even in the hitler sections of
the county, and washing away or
coVing number of bridges and
making near impossible some
roads.
r. L. Johnson, owner OF
Durant-Belzoni Bus lines, said
he heard of Coxburg- Eden
road made impossible during the
swell of waters, and that some
cotton along roads between Lex
ington and Ebenezer was yet in
the fields, as well as some corn
on the groud. w. F. Shrock
reported Goodman roads, near
impossible last week, to be il
fairly good shape with this weeks
change in weather.
According to Mr.. Sullivan, {
bridge between Lexington anc
Howard was out due to the rain
also a Bowling Green bridge was
said to be washed out.
County Agent Sullivan said Of
the total rainfall for the month
ATS inches fell in one rain las
week, with more than two inche!
falling at another time the same
week, followed by two rain.
bringing more than two inches
each Normal for November is :
inches.
