Tbe reporta of crop oomepoadeaia
for tbs week eading Monday, September i
1. 189, were aot very satiafsctoiy.
Tbe forepart of lb week waa Intensely
waraad dry. Mai Imam temperatures
occurred a tb Otb breaking all prevl J
aas records for blgb temperatoras la'
September, reaching over 100 at central
points. Although a decided mode ratios
eccurred oa Buadsy and Monday, lbs
mean for tba week was over C per day
above tba normal, Drought prevailed
over most of tba counties of the State,
but wsa relieved toward tbe close, by
freqoeat sbowera, chiefly over western
counties. Tba rain on Monday, lllb,
seems to bar been quite general and
very beneficial, and will enable more
rapid progress to be made In fall plow
ing, and the seeding of winter wheal.
oats, and rye. Sever local storms wltb
some Injury to crops occurred oa the
7th In Anson, Burke, Henderson, Gas
toa, and a few other oouatles. ,
Owing to the lateness of the fcaeon
tbe rains, however beneficial the fall
crops, cannot now materially change tbe
yield of the staple crops. Lata corn has
not greatly Improved: fodder pulling Is
nearly over except In the central west.
Cotton, under Influence of the Intense
heat early In the week.opened very rapid
ly, many of the open bolls being small
and immature. In many southern fields
all tbe crop Is open; picking is progress'
Ing rapidly. 8oms cotton In the east
tangled and blown to the ground by the
late storm, will be soiled by the rains
Caring tobsoeo Is over except In the
north to west section, where the work Is
being accomplished as rapidly as posal
ble. Late tobacco was much damaged by
firing from Granville county west to
Surry, and cures were not generally sat
lsfactory. Large quantitiea of bay were
saved. Peas, while making good vines
tor hay, will not yield a large crop of
seed. Digging and stacking peanula has
begun. . Turnips bave generally a poor
stand and need rain. Rice Is ripening.
Fell plowing progressed more rapidly
toward the close of Ibe week, end some
winter oats and rye have been seeded.
