FARMERS BLUE
OVERJUTLOOK
The Rains Are Doing Much
Damage to the Cotton
Crop. i
CGRN WILL BE EXCELLENT
And, in a General Way, Other Crops
Fair, but the Continued Wet
Weathtr is Discouraging.
The cotton merchants of the city con
tinue to be worried about the cotton crop.
The rain- of tlhe past few weekn, accord
ing to their statements, has played havoc
With the cotton and they say that the crop
will be fat below the average both in
quantity and quality. The warehousemen
«»y that the farmers are reporting pool
crops in all sections and in tneir opinion
th> crop will not be very large thia year.
Mr. < <l. Wellborn, a prominent young
farmer of W< Baton, stated to a News re
porter yesterday afternoon that the crops
,n his section were very poor and that ail
oi the farmers were complaining of the
rains, he said:
•"Jh< crops are ruining fast and if the
rams do not cease 1 do not know what will
if tin formers. .My crop is very
pool . oin of the poori.it I nave ever had.
Tin- col ton is shedding as fast as the fruit
comes on and the weed is rusting terribly.
J think that the crop will tie shorter tins
year than ev< r before, but 1 suppose that
tne shortness of the crop will bring high
er prices. Alt.-r all I don't think that thin
will benefit, the farmers as tne crop will be
eat i hoi I.
'"1 ne crops wf the farmers mar me are
tn tin -ame condition as mine and some
of them ar, very blue about their pros
pects. The cotton Is beginning to open ra
pidly amt is getting stained badly. 1 had
not finished laying my crop by win n the
ram ret m ami I have not bad the oppor
tunity of plowing, as the ground lias been
entirely too wet. The grass has taken
po , sMon of everything ami it will tend
to cut the crop short. I iiope that the
ruins will cease soon so that the late cot
ion will have an opportunity to do some
thing.”
He was asked about the zorn crop and
he replied:
"The corn crop is as tine as 1 ever saw
it and the farmers will mak" more corn
this yeai than ever b, Sore. 1 will gather
the largest corn crop that I have ever ga
thered and that will b. the only redeeming
feature about the rain. The corn crop uas
been made while the cotton crop has been
almost ruined The peas will also tutu
out well, b it some of my neighbor.! are of
the opinio i that peas are Ilk? •ottun, dry
wiatlier be ng the life of them. But 1 do
not think eo. I know that the hay e: op
will b ■ the best this country Ills ever st «,li
and 1 intend to make the - no:t of it by
gathering several tons.
"‘Of course 1 may be mistaken in some
of these things, but for my own part 1
think I am right. The farmers have had
a bad year ami 1 hope never to see an
other like it.”
Tin 1 same reports are heard on all sides
and an old farmer who had been f.ruling
for years slated yesterday that he had
never before seen such a season as this
one. That the price will be higher this
year can hardly be disputed. The crop is
sure to be short and a .short crop always
brings high prices.
The corn crops will come in handy to
the farmers this year, as many of Diem
will be savi d the expense of buying, which
they l have been doing for many years
past It has rained in this section nearly
every day for the past month and any
body who line had any experience in farm
ing can understand the damage done.
