Résumé :
Excerpt from Crop Production: October 1949

Most crop prospects improved slightly or were maintained during September; only a few were adversely affected. Cotton showed the most importan gain, as op timra conditions in Texas raised production a half-million bales, with changes in other States mostly offsetting one another. Soybeans also prospered in the main producing area, to show a 3 percent gain. A hurricane the first few days in October damaged rice in the central part of the l'ems rice area, resulting in probable loss of several million bushels. The favorable conditions for maturing and harvest resulted in slightly improved estiznates for cats, barley, buckwheat, sorghum grain, hay, dry beans, soybeans, peanuts, routes tobacco, sugarcane, sugar boots and most fruits. Slightly lower estimates than on September 1 are noted for corn, spring wheat, flaxseed, sweetpotatocs, hops, peaches and grapes.
