ed bolls to the hot sun. This, it
is reported, is causing the
young bolls to open prematurely
and will cause great loss to the
! crop.
Cotton is opening rapidly, but
j most of it is still in the fields, no
preparation having been made
| for picking. Some fields have
been picked over, but most of
them are white with the staple
and should a rainy spell set in
it is feared additional damage
would result in the loss of much
of the open crop.
Exposed Bolls Opening.
If the worms had not stripped
most of the plant of the top fol
iage the present dry, hot weath
er would be most advantageous,
but the hot weather is causing
all of the exposed bolls to open.
Many reports are to the effect
that the crop has been cut
short of the estimate of six or
eight weeks ago from 25 to 50
per cent and that the yield is
not expected to be larger than
last year’s crop, if as large.
As a rule the corn crop is
about made, and the yield will be
much better than it'was though^
it -would be eight weeks ago.
The hay crop is much better
than usual, thousands of tons
being mowed and baled daily.
More peas than usual have been
planted this season, and the
yield has been exceptionally

good. All image ciups cue gwu,
