THE CROPS.


 we can learn, in this county are very satisfactory. The hot sun has revived the cotton that had been somewhat retarded by rains and cold, and the plant is prosper ing finely. Corn has pink green color, and is said to be growing fast, in many places over waist high. Fine oats are being harves- ted. Apples, peaches and berries will be in abundance, and vegota- bles of all kinds were never better and cheaper. The average planted greatly exceeds that of last year, owing to the influx of labor.
 Howard County-Ncws, I3: A fine rain visited us "Wednesday, and it was pretty general over this section. This almost insures good corn crop, and with another season before the first of July, both the stable products will be so well ad- vanced and in such healthy con- dltion that only the most prolonged and scorching drouth will prevent an immense yield; and it is not at all likely to be unreasonable after midsummer. Our merchants are decidedly more cheerful, the farm CTS are jubilant and everybody is happy.
 Carroll Connty-Progress, 10: During the past week there has been a great cry for rain. Oats and garden vegetables have been needing rain most. The wheat crop would also have been greatly improved by more rain, while the corn crop is looking well and not yet suffering. As a rule, it is cleaner than usual, and in splendid condition for rain. Yesterday there was fine rainfull, which seemed to be general over the country. All is now lovely.
 Phillips County-World 13: The farmers in Helena to-day one and all report the crops much benefit ed by the rains during the week although a good many of them are uneasy about the encroachments the young grasshoppers are mak- ing on the cotton. The hoppers have not done any serious damage as yet, but they are still young and there is no telling what they may do, as their number is larger than has ever been known before.
 Ouachita County-Beacon, Is; This section WAS the recipient of a splendid rain fall last Monday af- ternoon, which was pretty general and which. of course was gladly received by all, and we again an nounce that our crop prospects arc simply fine all along the line. II the prospects continue as favora' ble as the outlook now is, the yield in this section from all crops, will be just good enough.
 Pope County-Democrat. II: Some of the most forward corn crops are being laid by this week The upland crops will not be fin ished for two weeks or more.
 The developments of the past wecl go to show that the anticipations O wheat growers will fall short O realization. Cheat and rust hay, well nigh ruined the crop. an' much of it will not pay to gather
