Texas seems in the best situation-rapid growth, favorable weather, fairly good fruiting, some insects, some rankness. Arkansas was doing well until rains came. Tennessee needed rain, got it. The Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi report poor fruiting, yet fair prospects. Louisiana and Oklahoma...
