Kuw Gsleahh, Joly 10.—The national cot
ton exchange crop report for tho month of
Jonc, compiled by 0. H. Parker, secretary,
which has Just been issued, says:
Tbo meteorological record of June, over tho
cotton bolt Is In atriking contrast with that of
the corresponding period of last year. Tha
conditions have been abnormal ovar pretty
nearly all the area east of the Ulmlislppt.
Within these limits, embracing about two-
thirds of Aha entire average under cotton, ths
rainfall baa boon excessive, the temperature
unfavorable and farm work has been retarded
and over extensive districts almost sntlrely
suspended for all practical purposes, causing
ths grass to grow Inxnrlantly and rendering
necessary tha abandonment of some lands In

Alabama and MlsaisMppi, Tha bottom lands
particularly have suffered severely and fertile
black lauds have lost mooli of the prospect
they had. Over moot of tbeao states tbo early

again lowered thorn a little and reudored tha
outcome more critical. Still ovar this area,
embracing, as Itdoes, ao large a per centags of
upland, with Avorable conditions lu July,
atedsoll sndscorchjpiauta which have been
rendered unhealthy by extreme moisture,
there is room for improvement.
It is to bo noted that insect
ravages, usually accompanying tbeao
meteorological conditions, have bean alight
and stands which wore vary good to atart on,
have not been impaired on that aeconnt. Over
all tbia district, the crop Is late, and therefore,
exposed to the vtciasltudea of the fall season.
In tho northern portion oftha bait, howovor,
Tennessee had a good atart, and has held her
own pretty well, and North Carolina is bat
ter than tho coast district btlow her. Going
west of tba Miasiaslppi, tho situation ia re
served. Over the groat atato of Texas, in Ar
kansas and in Louisiana, tho rains
of June found tba plants well
rooted and the fields in excellent cultivation.
These proioecto have very much improved,
