North Carolina. On account of insufficient moisture cotton has probably suffered deteiora- tion since our last report, when condi tion from drouth have received good showers and rapid improvement is looked for owing to a deep tap root. First planting is generally in fine shape, but the yield from late planted will depend upon the date of killing frosts. The plant is good and strong, well fruited and fields are in an excel lent state of cultivation and insects are doing no damage. It is holding Its fruit well and a large proportion of correspondents look for the largest crop on record. The season is early and some expect to pick by August 20 while the general time is from Sep tember. Jacksonville, Onslow Co.—Cotton never looked better in this county; seasons at this time are splendid; looks like we will have a bumper crop this year. Nick, Nash Co.—Crop well cultivat ed and about as early as we have had in 10 years; stand about 85 per cent: stalk good size and full of fruit; will begin picking about September 20. Tarboro, Edgecombe Co.—Crop is in most excellen condition p> plant stocky, forming and fruiting heavily; picking of early varieties expected by Sept. 10. China Grove, Rowan Co.—Cotton is sulfering for want of moisture. Kannapolis, Cabarrus Co.—Plant is larger than last year; no shedding yet; needing rain, but will not suffer if it comes in one week; not much picking before Sept. 1. Farmville, Pitt Co.—Seasons have been as fine as could be desired; bar ring the fact that we haven’t a perfect stand we have the finest prospects for a crop we have had in years. Elm City, Wilson Co.—The plant is thrifty and of good size; red spider has appeared in some fields and do ing some damage; stand somewhat broken; crop clean and fruiting v.^ell. Tarboro, Edgecombe Co.—Cotton doing all it can, fruiting well, and seasons perfect up to neow. Selma, Johnston Co.—Best pros pects ever for crop. Nashville, Nash Co.—Never have seen a finer prospect for a good crop; no shedding; no rust; no insects; the weed is large and full: seasons are fine, could not wish for better; if not set back will make more cotton in this county, this year, than ever before by a good percentage; well cultivated; plant large and healthy. Everetts, Martin Co.—Rains have come and cotton is looking very pros perous; it looks now that a full crop can be safely expected. Elkton, Bladen Co.—Cotton late, but is growing rapidly and holding its fruit well. Four Oaks, Johnston Co.—Good, strong plant, well fruited and cultiva ted; season has been dry; expect pick ing about Sept. 1 to 10. Lexington, Davidson Co.—Too dry, but crop is doing remarkably well un der the circumstances. Princeton, Johnston Co.—Except for irregular and very late germination on stiff lands the prospect would be phe nomenal; dryest season in 20 years. Fremont, Wayne Co.—Our cotton crop is largely dependent upon rate of frost, as we'were very late in getting our cotton up to a stand. “GET IT AT HAWLEY'S” You can always be sure of the Quality, Flavor, Freshness and Absolute Purity of your Candy if you buy it in dirt proof, dust proof, moisture proof, seal ed package bearing this trade mark.

Gilly, Camden Co.—First planting fair size and strong; late planted small but strong; stand good; labor plentiful; fields clean; have had good rain; picking will begin Sept. 1. “iGastonia, Gaston Co.—County very spottea cn account of uneven stands and severe drouth,' while other parts have ha-1 good showers and the plant i& in good condition; of over 60 per cent. Davidson, Mecklenburg Co.—Local ly crops in critical condition; plant small and blooming to top; if it v3oes not rain soon cannot exceed 50 per cent of 1910 crop; red land a failure; county very spotted; can- rioi estimate. Mount Pleasant, Cabarrus Co.—Dry May and June, with July more sea sonable, has put thee otton crop in good condition; no shedding; no disease; tap root the best for years; piospoct all that could be desired. Derita, Mecklenbi.rg Co.—The dry weather &till continues and unless it rains 50 per cent will be fair esti- nifile for this cection. Wodland, Northampton Co.—We .have a -jood July crop of bolls; since rains began our crop is going to weed too much; cotton is about 10 days early. W*oodk>af, Row:in Co.—Plant me dium and v/ell shaped; cultivation ?;ood; stand In sandy land fairly good, in red Uinu very poor; severe drouth for two weeks longer there will not be half a crop; immature blooming; top is shedding badly.
