THE PILOT, Aberdeen and Southern Pinea North Carolina Page Five General Survey of Crop Situation Indicates Shortage in Production Peach Crop One of Bright Spots of Season in This Section of State Court House News The close of the pt-ach season shows a large crop harvested and prices on the average right satisfac tory. While the car load shipments were not up to the highest record they were high enough to be above the average, and with the truck ship ments the movement is among the large ones. A feature has been the quality of the fruit, as the large pro portion has been free from worms and from other damages, enabling nearly every basket from the orchard to find a market either from No. 1 rating or still above the unmarket able cull. Some sections have not been of the best, but the general crop has been as free from defects as any that has been very often harvested. Prices during the end of the season have been down, but this has been offset by the high figures at the end of the season ,and the fairly high prices for culls, nearly everything bringing some money. The crop has been of unusual benefit in creating at this time employment for a large num ber of hands in the orchards and on the roads in the distribution, and is one of the bright spots in the sum mer’s experience. Watermelons and cantaloupes did not do as well as pcaches, yet con siderable money has come into the territory from these sources. Other garden stuff has helped some, al though the excessive dry weather of July gave the garden a bad jolt. The corn crop has been badly hurt by the hot dry season in mid-summer, yet the crop will yield a pretty fair return, and although the wheat crop was also affected many of the coun- She Ark ^outhrrn Pinrs, N.

Poultry prices have been low, tut the low price has helped to hold a market, and at the present the call tor eggs is far above the ability of the farms to meet. Tobacco in some secMons looks pretty fair, but the dry weather has affected the weight of the leaf and the size of the plant. Curing is going forward. The state report of tobacco conditions indicate a crop of but lit tle more than half that of last year throughout North Carolina. Tobacco got away to a late start and growing conditions were not good. Cotton has not been as largely planted in this section as in some previous years, and like the crop all over the country it is not much to boast of. The government estimates the North Carolina crop at about two-thirds that of last year and the crop in the United States at little over eleven million bales as against seventeen millions last year. The price of cotton is advancing mater ially under the unfavorable crop con ditions, although a big carry-over from last year leaves a large amount of cotton available for the mills. Happily the textile trade is picking up materially, which gives promise that the cotton farmer has a brighter sky ahead. LAKEVIEW or two the first of the week with Holt and grandson.

Cameron, of Broad way, and W. H. McNeill, of Carthage. Honorary members are Mr. Warren i and Judge E.

Mr. Carey, Mr. Scott and Mr. Ecke, who were sent here Irom the camp at Johns town, Pa., to organize the bonus force in North Carolina, said the situation of the camp is ideal and that sanita tion will not be a problem. The B. E. F. camp will be a'bout four miles from Southern Pines in Moore county. The camp will be on a hill near a large j stream.” i If the general sentiment^ of the ! community is to be taken as an in- j dication, it is hardly probable that , the proposed camp will be located hera, as few can see the benefit ofi such a camp either to the men them selves or to the community.
