C:stlEnotii Esisture Since July 14
v ITiSt S'j-lay. rsssffe to Crops,' ,
It w2 not tike much s'.retch of the
Imagination" to guess jhoit It was with
Noah when tlie Cist- rainy season . was
Instituted It li, however, not the pur
pose of the Journal to lam iti leader
with the thought that we are going to
be drowned out because we are baring
48 days rain." We wm be all right if we
can swim and .that accomplishment
see ma to be almost a necessity now. ,
There hare been Tery few days since
July 14 in which some , rain . either -in
large or small quantities has not fallen.
The aTerage dally rainfall has been t one
half inch but on some days considerably
more than an inch has fallen. " v- '
This record Is for the 40 days which
we are now baring and which wm end
next Sunday July 23. The season will
long be known as one of the most rainy
summers on record In this section. V;
The greatest damage ' caused by : the
ralnwlll.be to cotton.; Farmers fear
that they Will suffer a shortage of fully
half their crop on account of the weather
The corn wm also be damaged" but not
to such an extent as cotton. ,iT, r 4
The end of the 40 days , of continuous
moisture comes next Sunday . and no
body will be sorry to see its finish. There
should be in order to eren things up a
long pleasant autumn.

' Attention is often called to the need
of a ferry across JTeuae rlrer In the
neighborhood of Fort BarnwelL - t -
The Neuie divides what might be
easQy termed,? agriculturally speaking
the richest part of theounty; from
Street's Ferry on up to the Lenoir coun-
ty line."' " " -r , ' -. ,
And yet there is no ferry or bridge by
which those living on one side of the
river can cross orer to the other side,
fronfthe ferry mentioned to Elnston. si
Families of one side have intermarried
with families on the ' other side, - but If
they want to visit they' must drive thirty
miles or so, while It there was a ferry or
bridge, they would only hare to drive a
few miles; in lome cases not over one or
tWO. An y-s-i . 5 y
People living on the north side of the
river are practically isolated from those
living on the south side. ' " ' 1 : '
A person living in the neighborhood
of Maple -Oyprees wishing to come to
New Bern , quickly, must drive ovejes
bad, sandy road thirty miles ana more,
when if a crossing of the Neuse c6uld be
effected near Fort Barn well,Dover could
be reached in" iwelre miles or sudu
matter, over a good, hard road, the train
be boarded,, and the person be In New
Bern in a fraction of time consumed on
the other route.
Bealdea. there C Is a large volume of
trade ' on the north side of the rlrer
Which would be attracted to Fort Barf
well and Dover if the - people could get
across. , ' '
There is no doubt of the great need of
ferry up there. IThe people who lire
along the rlrer want one. The travelling
people want one. and the county should
apply the need. -
A Very little expenditure of money
would purchase a boat, there 1 already
a chain, end the cost of operating could
be easily managed. The neighborhoods
contiguous, would gladly build and keep
up the approaches to the ferry.
If those who are interested in this
matter will get together and petition
the board of commissioners, they will
doubtless be willing tar furnish a . boat if
they do not the means of operating it
jit's worth trying fori anyway.
