Greensboro, July 6-The j;overn- ment figures given put on Tuesday, make the crop, condition 72 fer cen. higher, which is lower than any June condition on record. A poor condition was forecasted; but TS was lower than the most pessimistis exDectatlon.' The report does not look consistent, for no one believes that Jane was a very faf lorabler month for farm work, and that nature was kindly sent to all sections a liberal, amount of - sunshine $nd showers. For the crop therefore .to have igone backward during the month In North Carolina 8 per cent and to have gained over the whole belt only 1-2 per cent-seems lncredltable, point ing Inconsistencies however is of small value for after all, prices respond to wha,t ' people, belleyp; andl W.bll' crop is in suctt an uncerUin, undevei bped tate, there is Bo-way of know ing the exact tacts.

The game yesterday was a peach and thats no Idle Jest for the New Bern boys' played to win and they won. Frobes abso lute control of the ball and his mys tifying delivery told the story of the work of defeat practiced on the Wash ington, the score being exactly re versed from the day before and it was a game very much like its predecessor In many features. As has been said Frobes pitching was the feature of the game. He won a warm place in the heart of the average fan and supple mented it with excellent fielding. The visitors went to bat first Clayton walked, Freeman went out at first as did Holt and Fox flew to Celey. In the New Bern half Celey walked and scored. Stevenson went out on assist from Smith to Fox; McCorry struck out; Dekln went out on fly to White at second. Most o f the playing was from pitch er to first base but at times the bat ters got a good swipe at the buckskin and sent It Into the air giving fielders a' chance to exercise. Shaver the new player gave splendid satisfaction at the bat and In the field. He's got the goods and will make a fine record. . New Bern played an errorless game but slow, It has become a bad habit to string the game along from one and three quarters hour to two hours and even longer when an hour and a half la considered a long time for a game, but the playing of the last two games has been of such a nature that the spectators were not strenuously op posed; to the length. The game was called with two men down in the last half of the ninth Inning because the Washlngtons had to leave on the train, Dimpfel umpired the game and gave general satisfaction.
