Vegetables are growing nicely along

Strawberries are getting ripe along

Cattle are holding up very well, and
it is reported from the southern por-

condition.
Rain is needed over the central and
western portions of the State to fur-

ground in better condition for farm

(irass is growing nicely over the
southern portion of the State and pas-
