Cotton progress in state is good
The governor reports mixed progress across Alabama with improving crops inland but ongoing concerns from continued rains. Cotton ranges from poor to good in the southeast, fair to good elsewhere, with boll weevils noted in Macon county and early planted cotton blooming in some areas. Corn varies from poor to good, drought hurting southern crops while northern and central areas improve. Potatoes harvest proceeds, pastures and minor crops rise with showers, satsuma trees shed fruit on light soils amid drier spells.
