New Orleans reports from Picayune correspondents in Louisiana and Mississippi cover weather and cotton crop conditions for the week ending August 28. Most areas see favorable weather for a fair crop, though hill regions show deterioration and some lowlands are conducive to normal growth. A severe heat wave had little effect on the plant, but field work was hindered by heat.

Farmers are sending crops to market, with harvest progress noted amid uneven progress and hastily gathered grain.
