CROP CONDITIONS. Cool Weather Damaging, but Rains Did , Mush Good. The Crop Bulletin, Issued this morning says: . The past week has been unfavor able, being too cool throughout North Carolina, considerably check ing growth of crops. The weather was also dry until the end of the week, excepting light rain with some hail in the northern portion on the 27th. The warm rains of Sat urday and Sunday were general and will be of immense benefit. Farm work has been well kept up. Cot ton and corn continue small; some cotton has died out from cool nights, and the stand of corn is poor. To bacco is growing off slowly. Wheat has about headed and is beginning to turn. Blackberries are abundant. Crops are in excellent condition to be benefited by suitable seasons, and next week's reports will probably indicate great improvement. Central District. A hail storm the night of the 23rd did some dam age in the northern counties. The week has been unfavorable for the growth of crops; much too cool, especially at night, and too dry. Crops are, however, generally clean and well worked and in the right condition to be grealty benefited by warm showers, which occurred the last of the week. Cotton is not do ing well; lice have appeared in one or to counties. Corn all planted; it is backward and stand poor; con tinues to be damaged by worms. Tobacco mostly transplanted; first planting grew very well for a while, but late plantings poor in growth; leaves are narrow and p'.ants too much inclined to go to seed, making them worthless. Much of the tobac co crop, however, is reported to be doing well. Irish potatoes are line. Wheat beginning to turn. asy to Take asy to Operate Are features peculiar to Hood s Pills.
