Bradstreet reports the cotton crop status up to June 20 showing poor to fair weather, a 102 percent acreage vs last year, with the largest gains in South Carolina and biggest declines in Arkansas. Planting occurred mainly between May 1 and May 15, or May 15 to June 1, with some to June 20. Overall, an acreage rise of about 330,000 acres over 1883. Mississippi lagged, Louisiana showed little promise, Texas faced hail and rain, though Western Texas looked brighter.
