COTTON CROP.
October Reports of Agricultural Depart
 ment shows an Average of 75 :.
EFFECTS OF FROST.
It Has Been Somewhat Bens fcial by Checking the Growth of the Plant and Causing Open-
 ing of Matured
 Bells.

WASHINGTON, Oct. l0.-The Octo- Der cotton report of the department of agriculture shows the general sv- craze of the condition of cotton 75 [, against S2.T month ago. Last year, in October, it was 80. Besides this unfsvorsble difference of condi- ton the crop is late this year and chances are against the repetition of last years extraordinary length of season growth. The average con- dition, by statistics, are as follows:
 yirginis, 72; North Csrolins, 70; South Carolina, 72; Georgia, 7s; Florids, "A; Alabama, 76: Missis- sippi, "A; Louisiana, 7s; Texas, 7s; Arkansas, 76; Tennessee, 70.
 The Atlantic coast breadth suffered more from adverse conditions than the Gulf coast areas. Excess of moisture in August and early Sep tember with drought and high temperstGre later, tested the vitality of the plants of the coast region severely, csusiag 2 shedding of leaves sad bolls, prems ture opening, sud slight yield west of the Mississippi. Taere wss 8 variable record of moisture in the country. Texas, for instance, re- ports con niinued drought for ninety days.
 This section reports s smaller loss Of fruitsge by the sudden change of temperature snd rainfall, than more Eastern states. There insect losses were some what general, though not unusual or very heavy throughout most of the cotton belt from caterpillar, boil worm, snd army worm, especi- ally in the bottom lands.
 EFFECTS OF FIRST FROST.
 ST, LOUIS, Mo, Oct. 10.-The Globe Democrat has this to say in regard to the condition of cotton crops: The first frost of the season has fallen in the cotton belt, Als- bams, Arkansas, Tennessee and northern parts of Texas, Louisians snd Mississippi. IL has been somewhat benefi- cisl, it is claimed, in ihsi it kss checked the growth of the plant and caused mstured bolls to open, st the same time, more or less damaged to crop improvement, in which it was distinguishing over last weeks receipts. h regard to the yield therefore reports indicate ii to De shortened by frost. To what ex- tent csn not be estimated.
 From Texas, with the exception of frost damage, the reports nearly sll show that no change, or slight i'm provement, in the condition of ms- tured fruitsge. There has been no material chsnge in the condition of the crop in Arkansas. Boil worms gre damaging young cotton in the Newport district, snd frost, where it has fallen, has hsd some effect on the top crop in Texas.

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN.
The Condition of the Cotton Crop Through. out th~ State Remains PrGeti-
 caliy Unchanged.
ARkAnsAs STATE WEATHER
Service Tn Cooperation With the United states Weather Bursan of the
 Department of Agri.
LITTLE RocK. ARK. Oct. 10.


 The temperature for the week has averaged about 6 degrees per day below the normal, while tie amount of sunshine was above the average. The precipitation has been about the average, but was very badly dis tributed, the extremes being 21S inches at Piue Bluff and no precipi- tation in be extreme western DOT ton of the state.
 The condition of the cotton crop throughout the state remains prscti- cally unchanged since the last re- port. Reports in general state that the generous rains which fell in some portions of the state during the week have not increased the estimates sl- ready made, ss it came too late to help the top crop, which had been ruined by the protrscted drought and hot weather of September.
 The rains, however, were beneficial to all fall crops and vegetables, and improved the condition of the soil, making it possible to blow.
 The cool westher has caused no damage. On the contrary it has stimulated the cotton pickers, and picking has progressed rapidly.
 Correspondents, without exception, report the staple snd color ss excel lent and the best for years.
 Corn is made, and is large yield. Many report the crop housed.
 Rain is needed, particularly in the northern part of the state, ss the water supply is running short, and the soil is too hard and dry for fall plowiag.

the dynamo tina. had been in use was
no longer s~erviceable, the company
telegraphed to ST. Paul for another one
TO replace II, expecting to find one
there. In this they we've disappointed,
but luckily one wa found At Great
Falls which had ben shipped to that
point for the installment Of q plant but
on arrival found to be too small. Mr..

Of our needs and learning that a
