Weather and crop report from Washington and South states
The Weather Bureau crop bulletin notes corn planting near completion in the South Atlantic and East Gulf, with early corn being cultivated. Cotton planting is delayed in Mississippi and Louisiana and later in Texas and the Carolinas. Alabama and Georgia show better progress, with nearly complete planting in southern areas. Tobacco transplants are underway in South Carolina and Florida. In South Carolina, frost threatens replants for much of the state as wet soils delay fields and most stands may require replanting.
