CONDITION OF THE CROPS.
raa weekly bullbtin of the
SIGNAL SERVICE.
me Temperature Normal During the
West in the Agricultural Districts
East of the Rocky Mountains—Rams
Come Just in Time to Prevent a Seri
ous Drought in Many Sections.
Washington, May 23.—The weather
srop bulletia issued to-day says: “About
the normal temperature prevailed during
the week over all the agricultural districts
east of the Rocky mountains, and also on
the Pacific coast, although it was slightly
•ooler than usual in the eastern portions of
the cotton region and in the lower Missouri
valley, the deficiency in these sections
amounting to about 3* per day. It was a cool
week in the central Rocky mountain and
southern plateau sections, the departure
from the normal temperature ranging from
5° to 8° per day. There was a slight excess
of temperature in the Mississippi valley and
in Minnesota and tne Dakotas.
TIMELY RAINS.
“Timely rains whioh occurred during the
week over the central valleys have pre
vented the threatened drought over the
Srincipal wheat and corn states and will
oubtless prove of great value to growing
crops. Excessive rains have occurred from
New England westward over the states of
the Ohio valley and the southern portion of
the lake region, and thence farther west
ward to the Rocky mountain districts.
Within the greater portion of this
area the precipitation exceeded
one inch, and in Kansas an 1
portions of lowa, Missouri, Nebraska and
Colorado, it exceeded two inches. Exces
sive rains also occurred in the central por
tions of Minnesota and the Dakotas and
portions of Georgia, Alabama and Missis
sippi, while generous showers occurred
throughout Kentucky. Teunessee, Arkansas
and Southeast Missouri.
“The precipitation was very light in the
6outb Atlantic states, and no rain occurred
on the greater portion of the West Gulf
ooast, and also in Northern and Central
California and in Oregon.
THB SPRING WHEAT REGION.
“Reports from the spring wheat region
of Minnesota and Dakota state that recent
showers have greatly improved the crops in
that section, especially late wheat, while
warmer weather and more rain would be
beneficial.
“The crop conditions were also greatly
Improved in toe states of the Missouri val
ley and in Illinois and lowa, and wheat is
heading in fine condition, except in the
central counties of Illinois, where insects
are injuring grain, and the hay and oat
crop wiii be short. Corn planting is about
completed, but 000 l and cloudy weather lias
retarded the growth.
IN THE OHIO VALLEY.
“In the states of the Ohio valley and in
the lake region the crop prospects were
greatly improved bv rece it rains, although
in many sections the rainfall has not been
sufficient to completely relieve the crops
from the previous drought conditions.
“Frosts on May 17 caused some injury to
crops and fruit in Michigan and the north
ern portioi.s of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.
“'ihe crop prospects were all improved in
Tennessee and Kentuoky, but light rains
have given only temporary relief. In Ten
nessee rust and a small insect are damaging
wheat. Texas and Indiana and Western
Arkansas report the weather favorable:
cotton plants small, but in good condition,
deep rooted and well cultivated,corn in tas
sel and the general prospects promising.
HAIL IN TEXAS.
“Considerable injury resulted from hail
in Texas, where these storma covered an
area of 25,000 acres. Some benefit resulted
from showers in the northern portions of
the Gulf states, but the drought continues
iu the western sections, and the outlook is
generally more unfavorable than during
the previous week.
“The weather continues dry In the South
Atlantic states, and it was too cool for oofc
ton. The stand of corn and cotton Is poor,
and in some sections cotton is being re
planted. Light rains revived crops in the
northern portions of the Bouth Atlantic
states, but the ground contiuues too dry.
RAIN HELPS NEW ENGLAND.
“The late rains have improved the crop
conditions in the New England and Middle
Atlantic states
“Frosts on May 16 and 17 slightly dam
aged the crops and fruit in New York and
"New England, and grass and grain are be
low the average. Many graoes and straw
, berries were killed, and owing to the cool
weather crops are growing slowly.
“New Jersey reports root crops muoh im
proved, peaches full and promising, but
some varieties of pears falling badly.
“Pennsylvania reports the late rains not
general, wheat in good condition, but the
oat and hay crops short The fruit pros
peote are good.”
PROPS IN GEORGIA.
Bain Still Needed by Cotton In Many
Sections.
Atlanta, Ga., May 23.—Assistant Com
missioner of Agriculture Hunnicut has
taken extraordinary pains to disoorer what
effect the capricious weather of the past
ten days may be expected to have upon the
cropß. He said to-day that in spite of the
recent rains there was still nothing enoour
aging in the cotton outlook, though before
June no reliable estimate could be made, as
time still exists to replant,and with favora
ble seasons to redeem the crops.
The rains were general and did great good
in Middle (ieorgia, but in other sections
such was not the case.
TOO LIGHT.
North and Southeast Georgia report very
light rains, while below Marshallville, in the
southwestern section of the state, there was
almost none at all. in that Quarter every
thing is still dry and parched, and crops are
Buffering seriously. From all sections com
plaints of damaged seed and bad stands in
the ootton fields oontlnue to come in. Many
farmers are plowing up their land and re
planting.
In North Georgia the recent frosts killed
the tobacco plants and injured grapes.

WHAT ARE THE TERMS
For the Wilmington Island Lots!
In order to save time this method is chosen to
answer this question.
Nearly everybody wants the information, and
everybody will be surprised to read it.
A limited number of lots will be put up at
auction, and when this number is reached no
more will be sold on that day.
Twenty-five dollars per lot is all the cash that
will be required, and the balance of the pur
chase money can be paid at the rate of ten dol
lars (or more) per month, interest on the de
ferred payments being charged at but seven per
cent, per annum, the bank rate being eight per
oent.
As an inducement to build a discount of ten
per cent, will be made for tbe purchase money
if improvements to the amount of the price
bid for the lot be erected within twelve months
from the day of sale.
As many business men will go down on the
afternoon boat and have to leave the city with
out dining, a lunch will be provided for the
patrons of the sale.
It should be remembered that the day of sale
(THURSDAY, 29th.) is a Basket Excursion Day
to Wilmington, and many families will take the
morning steamer from the city and spend the
wnole day in recreation and business combined*
Tbe beauties of Wilmington will be revealed
to tnoae not familiar with its peculiar adapta
tion to the wants of our people for a summer or
even winter home.
If you cannot get off ail day, go down on the
afternoon boat and see for yourself.
