8EM 1-MONTHLY FARM NOTES
SEPTEMBER 15th-30th. 1321.
Everybody is blue?so says the
farmer. Two to three weeks of rain
more than over-balance the few reports
of good conditions that are
heard. Farm work for fall seeding of
small grains has been greatly delayed.
It will be ten days at least (after
the rain) before field work can be
resumed, eitheir plowing or planting.
Cotton is .rotting and damaging in
. fields. There have been few weevils
in the upper counties of the cotton
belt, but they are numerous elsewhere.
Bolls are opening slow with a pooi
quality of lint.
Some hay has been.found to be rotting
where farmers were unable to
house it. Topped and stalk harvested
" "*T(Sm is also expected to be damaged.
Practically no farm work is being
done. However, some grasses and
pastures are getting green again and
will make late hay crops and provide
late grazing for stock. Corn and hay
yields will be nearer normal in the
northern than in the southern Piedmont
counties.
HARVEST. Harvesting of crops is
progressing so slowly, due to the wet,
that it*has been almost at a standstill
for the past week. Cotton 1=
opening slowly and corn harvest has
not begun in the mountain counties.
Tobacco is about all housed. The fruit
harvest is about normal, though, as
with other crops, it is being delayed
a^id reports of rotting are numerous
OQTTOX. The cotton crop is much
poorer than was expected. Although
the acreage is much larger this year
than last, the yield is not expected
to be much over 70 percent of last
ji year's crop and this prospect is pos|

lor full crop outlook. An unusuaV
I quantity of grown bolls are found
to be damaged by weevils, and a large .
I percentage of them are rotting on ac-!
I count of the rain. Farmers state thr.l ;
I thq cotton outlook is discouraging
notwithstanding the advance in prices,
'and the condition of the crop seems <
to be deteriorating daily. The few
cotton counties in the upper Piedmont
section report very little weevil damage,
but in the balance of the cotton .
belt it is heavier than was expected. '
TOBACCO. Markets are just opening
and prices received are considered
fair for the grades offered. The i
quality, while thin and light, has a
good color. The yields have been rather
light, but prices are slightly better
than last year.
HAY. Hay crops, while damaged
some by the rains, are good. The
early part of the season was too dry]
for hay, but.it has improved since.'
The ncreage this year is. slightly lessi
!than last year. We do not expect to
ihave a shortage of hay and forage
during- the winter, however.
| SMALL GRAIN PLANTING. Some1
oats and rye have been planted, but
'in most counties the rains have kept
| farmers out of the fields and fall plow'ing
and soil preparation has been ro
| delayed that very little or none ha*
! been done as yet. Late* harvesting o'
| other crops is likewise delaying plans.
However, in the western counties the
i reason for fall planting is just at
, hand. Present reports and expectations
indicate a small grain crop thir
year,
MARKET CONDITIONS. The a
lundant fruit crop has met with i
somewhat discouraging market thi.
year. Tobacco prices are from fair to
good. Cotton prices are advancing.

for truck and vegetables are considered
low. The trehd of prices at present
is upward.
GENERAL. Farm labor is as usual
scarce, high-priced and hard to
get. Although the season has been
bad, work delayed, weevil damage
excessive, and other discouraging features
numreous, farmers report that
they have much to be thankful for.
Prices are advancing, fruit is abundant,
pastures are in good shape and
livestock generally in good condition.
Yields, while low, are not considered
abnormally so and while conditions
are bad, farmers say they could have'
been wosse and are rejoicing to see
the sunshine once more.
