The past week lias seen scores of barns in the Henderson section filled, with those farmers who have not start ed curing yet planning to begin around Monday and Tuesday of next week. While curing this week might* be classed as scattered over the territory, by the middle of next week It will be general from then on through August. First curings which have been seen by this writer have been of good quality, good color, and ex cellent body. All of these are, with only one or two exceptions, bot tom leaves; however, by the mid dle of next week a tew planters will have made their third prim ing of heavy bodied leaves. Con siderable spraying of plants has been going, on, with no serious damage of plants noticeable so far from worms. In one or two sec tions of this county, some leaves will not be saved, and this, to gether with reports from other sections, bears out the theory that' the amount not saved over the en tire flue-cured sectiion will prevent a Billion pound crop this year. Farmers, warehousemen and business men in the Henderson territory are mosti optimistic over prospects for one of the best Fall i seasons that has been known for several years. Your next crop report will be sent out' on July 26th and will contain considerable information wired direct from the Georgia markets which will open on the 25th. ? Fred M. Allen, Jr., Sales Supervisor. Tobacco being cured' in Wilson County is carrying an excellent color and shows high quality, re ports J. A. Marsh, assistant agent. Prospects are fine also for a bum per crop of corn. Boll weevil is plentiful in all cotton fields.
