across the river, on the Wilmington
extension, is rapidly going on. One
or me piers is already completed.
There will be five altogether. The
track has already; been laid to the
first pier. It is expected the bridge
will be completed by July. We hope
when the C. F. and Y. V. railway is
completed to Wilmington to see that
city grow and prosper at a rate un
precedented in her history, and we
believe that such will be the case.

The Wilmington Stab on last Sat
urday was 21$ years old. The Stab
makes mention of this fact in a
casual way, in a modest manner. It
says: "It does not pretend to be the
best or livest or ablest paper in the
State or in the South. It does claim
aek.a iaB4 cheir Cropa.
The Jarly potato crop in mr
country around Wilmington has
been seriously injured by continued
wet weather. One trucker renortg
thajt he has eleven acres "totally ruin
ed," and others report more or less
damage. The prospects for other
"truck" may be good, and for pota
toes even, if on well drained lands.
Charleston truckers say that their
cabbage crop is fully twenty days be
hind last year; but potato crops that
are not ruined by the rain
are fully twenty days ahead.
Savannah truck growers, it is said,
are disposed to try new markets this
season, and will ship fewer vegetables
to New York, Boston and Philadel
phia, which cities, except the few in
terior Georgia markets, have been
getting the bulk of the vegetables
grown in that section in past years.
They expect to ship to more western
cities, such as Pittsburg, and also to
interior cities of New York and Penn
sylvania. This will also have a deci
ded tendency to decrease the vegeta
ble traffic by ocean steamers, and in
crease the shipments by rail. In fact
the fast vegetable trains of the Coast
Line will also haul a great deal more
of the 8avannah-grown vegetables to
the old markets, such as New York,
Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore.
This step has been deeided upon by
reason of the fact that vegetables
sent by quick rail transit last season
were received in muoh better condi
tion, and found a readier market at
better jrices, whereas there were
some losses by delayed voyages where
the products of the truck farms went
by steamer.

The Charleston News and Courier,
In alluding to the fact that the old
Bagging Trust is preparing for an
other "squeeze," sounds a note of
warning to cotton planters who. it
says, will have no excuse if they fail
to take timely and effective action to
protect themselves next season, and
now Is the best time for such aetion.
The News and Courier adds: The
pine straw bagging has been careful
ly tested, and has received the ap
proval of cotton shippers and cotton
buyers, on both sides of the ocean.
There is no limit in the South to the
supply of raw material required for
this product, and the sensible course
appears to be for the cotton planters
to encourage, by every means in their
power, the development of an indus
try which will at once add materially
to the business and prosperity of the
Southern States, and will ensure to
the farmers themselves a measure of
that JprotectionTV which is now ex
tended to the) manufacturers of cot
ton bagging at the farmer's expense."
