conditions in North Carolina is taken
from the .luurtiiil of Conj im-n-t* of
New York:
condition in quite up to the average I
percentage for this time of year and
prospects appear aboot'the same as a
year ago. Picking Is. however, con-]
elderably behind la*t year, when at
this tinjp it was 23 per cent gathered.
