Prospects eastm and mountain " eoanttes are excellent, vrith drier ia aaperleBoed in the Pled- counties. The 82 per cent condition reported on August 1st la points -Algher than the peat ^ ten-year aveimge. The crop indi- A cated at 48,«48,00« bnabela la H 'p per cent qtcffe than that harraet- -i ed In 1932 and 15 pw cant larg- ► , er than the past five-year aver- age crop. For the State as ' a !^s^y^ole the excessive July rainfall i "" favorable tor corn, and the ^aMfetfed usage of nitrates Is V ensent in the greener color and '^'stoLVier growth of the plants. Tobacco; The appearance of the tobacco crop on August 1st was most promising in this State. " The stands generally were excel- lent, but the weather during r»-July was somewhat unfavorable for the development In weight. Tbe rapidity with which the leaf ripened during July made it dif ficult for farmers to properly harvest and cure the crop. Th qualiiy of the leaf Is fairly uni form throughout the State and is characterized by excellent growth, high color, but light weight. ^ Hay Crops: North Carolina has a 2 per cent increase In cul tivated hay crops this year, and the August 1st condition at SO per cent Indicates a 629.000-ton crop. The condition is 17 per cent higher than that of last Au gust, and the prospective crop Is 14 per cent larger. The weather has been unusually favorable for hay crops, especially in the coastal and mountain counlies pMtureconditions ..hove bom good since the 1st oil June, and water supply and pastnrage ex cellent over most of the state. A national feed and livestock sur vey beirg made In August , should be most helpful In locating mar-, kets and supplies tor droughb- stricken areas In the West, and North Carolina farmers should cooperate In making this survey complete. Peanuts: The peanut condi tion Is generally regarded as be ing good in the commercial areas. The stands are average or better. Weather conditions, are now favorable. Fruit: The apple crop was damaged heavily by late winter freetes. The August 1st condi tion at 43 per cent Is 25 per cent below this date a year ago and 12 per cent below the ten-year average. The S,8fr0,000-hushel crop Indicated Is about eQual to a five-year average, but Is 37 per cent below the 1933 crop. The State’s peach crop is considerab ly above an average this year. The August 1st condition of 64 per cent indicates a production for the State of 2,210,000 bush els, or a 19 per cent larger crop than the past five-year average and about 5 per cent larger than the 1933 production. Conditions in the Sandhills area, which makes up almost half of the State’s production, are reported as excellent and prices being re ceived as very satisfactory. United States Crops: Crop prospects declined nearly 11 per cent during July as a result of continued drought and record- breaking hot weather. In large areas in the Middle West all growing crops and pastures were' seriously hurt and most of the corn was scorched beyond recov ery. The estimate of total production has been reduced to less than 53,700.000 tons, com pared with the short crop of 74,- 616,000 tons last year. Combin ing the estimates of 32 principal crops, present indications are that yield per acre will average Itemk 0f CtiUiti^ Sactioii i^eportedli 80MIIIT, 8«pt. i»;—him lu. pi»-v-i:irp. c.
