During the present term of Cit\

from all sections ot the county, and
all of t hem tell us that guo.d crops
of corn, cane, pinders, potatqesaud

of our farmers have madia more
food crops than they can
and are out trying to buy up a l .-the
pigs, hogs, cattle, Ac., that they
can find, and the prices offered are
good. The Sugarcane Crop isxvay
above the average, in both acreage
and groWth. Cotton is poor, ;n
some sections not more than hail a
crop will be made. Some fine pea
crops have been made this year, and
now, in rich places, the farmevand
