Rainfall was heavy in the east
ern cotton belt at the close of the
week and was moderate to generous
In the western portion, but only
light local showers occurred in the
central districts. It was abnormally
cool In much of the belt though
temperatures were near normal In
the extreme southern portion. The
Influence of the weather on the
crop during the week resulted In
hpt little change in the general
outlook. Increased moisture In the
eastern portion of the belt was
beneficial In checking shedding In
some localities and the plants that
still are greeh in some western dis
tricts will he helped, but the rains
came, too late to Improve much cot
ton In the southwest. There was
some lowering of grade by rains
reported and some local loss of
lint, hut the harm was not In
tensive.
Precipitation was light generally
except locally In Alabama. The In
creased moisture was beneficial in
cheeking shedding and premature
opening in Georgia and will Im
prove Ihe outlook for some top
crop with continued favorable
weather.
Condition hy states Include;
Houth Carolina: Drought relieved
hy heavy rains at eh(l of week.
J-aite corn slightly benefitted.

potatoes Improving with rains.
Preparation of soli begun. Hay
crop short. Apples and grapes fair

erally poor, hut very poor In many
Mfctione, weevil becoming rather
numerous, hut thus far damage

Georgia cool and dry, followed at
close by general rains breaking
drought everywhere except over
small areas In northwest. Exceed-
Ingly heavy rains Monday In

crop will now mature under favor
able conditions. Condition of cot
ton, fair to very god, picking and
ginning making rapid prgress.
Alabama: General and leally
heavy rains 1n southeast portion,
but drought continued In most
other sections. Condltln of corn,
truck and pastures mostly poor,
though benefitted by rains. Hwcet

A petition from the Georgia

Service Commission praying the
privilege of changing the present
schedule of the train leaving
Macon at 5:45 a., m. to 8:45 a. nr,
will be heard jn Atlanta by tho

Under the schedule as operated at

Macon at too early an hour, caus
‘ ing a layover of two hours at

leave there at 8:15 or 8:30 a. m.
instead, reaching Camak at 11:15
and in time to make quick con
