T. MEADOWS Speakfrvg aibout crop reports, a man HAH to take back or change his ideas four or five times during the grow ing period of any crop. This will e,pply especially to a tobacco crop. About June 20, when the tobacco association met at Mon'hoad City, it was from wpeeches made there and in many of the daily pa pers that dealers all over the coun try were led to believe that eastern North Carolina had one of the finest prospects for a crop of tobacco it had had for years. There was an Increased acreage, and the crop was •looking good. Of couiae, thew to ibacco boy* may have thought their fdeas were right at that time, -but I 'believe if some of these brethren would drive over eastern North Car olina at the present time they would do as 1 have done, change/ their minds.

Of course, there are some good crops in „ many sections, but there are a great many ■♦hat are not up to the average. Take this and ad joining counties,.arwl 1 will say, from p.ll reports, that our tobacco crop as a whole is as good, if not better, than the average one in eastern Car olina, but yet it is not up to the •standard. When our home folks fail to make a good crop of tobacco, "1 am sorry for the other fellows," for our farmers are above the average when it comes to raising toftxaccoi. -*Bjnce writing the above, I under stamrtrop conditions hare slightly improved, but there fs much room for more.
