About Half a Crop Is Now Piedicted Several Farmers in tne City Today TM About the Crop Conditions 0/ the County— Crops are Very Uneven Be- cause Of Local Nature, Several farmers, from different sec tions of the county, seen on the street today report that there is no pros pect in sight warranting more /hin half a cotton crop for the county and the corn crop is in hardly any better conditions. While there have showers in several parts of the county recent ly that did a great deal of good, there is serious need of a ra:n tbat will thor oughly soak the earth, and it would be all the better, say the farmers, it it were accompanied by several days of cloudy weather that would shield crops from the baking sun fcr a short period. Never before in the recollection of the oldest inhabitant have rains fallen in such scattered and local manner. A striking example of this was the rain of Inst SEaturday ai noon when a good rain fell in Charlotte and eastward, while the dust was scarcely laid be yond North Cahrlotte vicinity. As a result of this crops throughout the county are in a very uneven condition. In certain parts of the county farms not three miles ai>art are in very dis similar condition. One farm may be found with an excellent stand of cotton as a result of rains which tell at the "pschological moment, so to speak, while nearby is a farm with a very indifferent c’^op, because the rains did not come at an opportune time. E\en with the next best thing thar could happen for the farmers, namely, a late autumn, the corn and cotton crop will be ve' • short. Forty-five 01.) per cent of the cotton crop and i)orhaps GU or 70 per cent for the corn crop is the estimate made by several prominent farmers. We'll Reach Jhe River by And By * lt will ;ake approximately a year after work begins before the city wi'.l be getting water from the Catawba," said Mr. Vest. sui)erintendent of the water works, this morning.. "In the meantime we will continue the lines to Stewart's Creek, having that sup ply to tide us over in time of drought, and need until the river is tapped.’ In regard to the complaint by water consumers of advanced rate in the water bills, Mr. Vest said: "Yes. there have been protests by some consumers but 1 fail to see how the meters could register water that was not consum ed. The billi? are made out on the amount of \\ater consumed as shown by the meters.” Medical Board On Right 1 tack The County .Medical Society met la.st night. Pai)ers were read by Dr. .Annie Lowrie Alexander nnd Dr. Joh;i H Tucker. The society discussed at length and most warmly, a matter that City Phy&icians Hawley wrote of in The Nowr last week, viz: the calling of all fever, in the city, t.v- phoid. The discussion last night, on the fever that subject lasted 'wo hours. Dr. I. W. P'aison led. He. and other physicians present emphasi/od the injury to the citv in the calling of all fever typhoid. Our of five cases so reported lately, only one proved to be typhoid. Thi& proportion may .'afely be said as holding in other in stances. As the late Dr. R. J. vard once said: “Folks wito have typhoid fever don't get up and waliv around in two weeks, or three week.^, or tour weeks.’’ Reserved Seats Will Be Sold at Station Extra reservation of seats for the Charleston excursion tomorrow’, run by the Tenth Avenue Presbyterian churcn have been arranged for by the man agement and can be secured at the Southern station before the train leaves at 7:30.
