make the Arkansas exhibit one of the
leading attractions of the fair The

signed to the Arkansas department
These facts should stimulate our people
and induce them to put forth special eff
fort to I'LL every inch Of space with the
best specimens of field and orchard pro-
ducts. No doubt there will be big
immigration next season, and the peo-

portunity to show the world what their
state can produce in the line of agricul-
tural and horticultural prizes Every
prize awarded to our farmers and fruit
growers is paying advertisement for
the state and an industrial benefit to

The condition of cotton has fallen off
In all sections of the state, the most
serious damage being reported in the
southeast and central portions where,
considerable shedding is reported, and
blight and rust have appeared in the
last-named section. The plant is gen.
orally reported at a critical stage, and
serious injury will accrue If generous
rains do not occur during the ensuing
week.
Early corn is damaged beyond re-
covery and late corn is at critical
stage. Gardens and pastures are dried
up, and in localities stock water is be-
coming scarce. Very little stubble
breaking going on, on account of the
baked condition of the ground.
In the northeast section all crops are
doing very well, the rain having been
more general and frequent than else
where in the state.
A general drenching rain is m UGH
needed and will vastly improve the
crop outlook.

fact may be taken as an indication OF
thrift. At least it shows that tax col

NORTHEAST SECTION.

Except in parts of the southeast and
northwest portions of this section, all
crops are doing very well, having had
good showers on the 18th and 10TH
There is some little complaint of cot
ton shedding in the southern counties,
but generally it is fine, the plant be-
ing healthy and strong ana full Of
fruit, and at least two weeks earlier
than usual at this season. In Clay
county the first opening of bolls was
reported on July s. Early corn has
done very well, some localities report
ing full crop. Late planting prom
ises we'll with seasonable rains A
general rain is needed over the extreme
southern and northwest counties.
The Forrest City times., 1896-07-24
SOUTHEAST SECTION.

Drought continues over the greater
part of this section, though in few
localities light showers have fallen,
which were sufficient to keep crops
from suffering. A few localities re-
port cotton doing very we'll. with a
fine prospect, but generally falling
off in condition is reported. The plant
is blooming near the top and some
rust; much report of shedding with
poor prospect. Early corn is ruined.
and late corn is twisting badly and
loosing color, and will produce but
little unless it receives abundant
moisture very soon.
Pastures are drying up, and in some
localities stock water is becoming
scarce. A general rain is very much
needed, and if it does not come within
the ensuing week the cotton crop will
be seriously damaged.
The Forrest City times., 1896-07-24
SOUTHWEST SECTION.

The weather during the past week
has been hot and dry. and has had an
unfavorabls sffecs upon all growing
crops. Early corn is so far advanced
that 1t can not be- hurt any further.
but late corn is being damaged every
day. Late corn Is doing fairly well on
the lowlands, but in light upland soil
it is doing very poorly. Gardens and
pastures are rapidly drying up. Cot
ton is falling on account of insu fficient
moisture, though as yet there is little
report of shedding and none of damage
from insestA- The stalk seems to wilt
and its growth Is checked. Consider

CENTRAL SECTION.

Another very hot and dry week, do
ing much damage to all growing crops
and vegetation generally. Late corn
is now suffering badly, and the early
corn about ruined. Pastures are al
most dried up, and cotton has ceased
growing, and is now blooming near
the top with full grown bolls at the
bottom. The cotton crop. which up to
a week ago promised to be the best in
years, now promises to be very short
unless good. general rain comes in a
few days. Even then many fields in
the hill country are damaged beyond
recovery. In few localities ON heavy
lands cotton is still holding it's own.
Some eompla int of rust and blight
and much shedding reported. Timber
dying in the hill country from the eff
fests of the dry weather.
The Forrest City times., 1896-07-24
EoaPaWHr SECTION.

Droughty conditions continue to pre-
vail in this section. Corn Is suffering
more than any other crop on account
of insufficient moisture. Early corn is
doing very poorly throughout the Sec
ton and late corn must have rain soon.
In the southern counties cotton is do
Ing fairly well. Owing to the baked
condition Of tho ground stubble break
ing is at a standstill. Some late pota-
toes planted but the ground is too dry
for the termination of seed. Wheat
threshing is completed and the yield
Is very light. Grapes are ripening fast
and are good crop. Other fruits are
short. Peas sown for hay are burning
up but timely rain may save stand.

New York, Oct. 12,-Riordan & Co saw
OF cotton; Liverpool seemed to have more
faith in the bureau report than traders
mere mad. Notwithstanding this the mar
ket was very weak in the early trading
to-day. January opened at 7S2c. and
selling quickly down to 7.76c The receipts
were heaVy and for time everybody ex
pected a further decline But telepran,s
announcing cold rains and threatened
frosts in the southwest changed the rem
per Oh the market in trice. The leading
German bear became a heavy and consnic-
uous buyer and the lesser shorts hasten-
led to follow his example. For the rest
of the day the market wore a more cheer
tul aspect and the close was at the best
prices of the day, 1850 being bid for jan
uary, with the tone very steady. This
was the first day in which the market has
SHOWN decided strength in the teeth of
very large receipts, and many shrewd on
orators believed that we have already
seen the lowest prices, and that the turn
ing point In the market is close at hand "
New York, Oct. 12.-The Sun saws of cot.
ton: Spot prices here were unchanged.
Liverpool was unchanged on the spot tu-
lures there advanced, reacted and closed
very steady at a net advance of IL to
212 points. The exports from the ports
were 1880 bales. Future prices here de-
clined to points, but rallied and ad-
Vanced, closing very steady at a net ad-
vance of 10 to u points, The much-talked
OF NELL estimate was issued to-day. and
was OF a very bearish nature, but, never
theless, prices advanced right in the face
OF it. To be sure, 1t had a temporarily
depressing effect, but the decline was only
slight, and on good buying for L.iverpooI.
New Orleans and local prices rallied ana
advanced and closed at a substantial i'm
provement for the day. Shorts covering
assisted the rise. The crop movement
this week is expected to show some far-
ing off and to-day the receipts at the
ports were over 1900 bales smaller than
on the same day last week"

Chicago, Oct, 12.-With practically all
the hgures and news incident on Monday
bearish wheat advanced to-day, but fall
ed, however, to retain the full increment
The start was not a strong one. The
easy tone very soon departed on infor-
nation that India and Austria were
both buyers, Liverpool and San Francisco
confirming this Intelligence. December
wheat opened from 6SS4c to 6Sssc, advanced
TO 70d701sc, declined to and closed at 69ikc

was 1c higher early, closing unchanged.
Corn-The receipts of corn were 1909
cars, 500 more than estimated With this
increase in the movement there was an in
clination by holders at the opening to dis
pose of their property more so because of
the tendency of wheat to define. When
the finer grain rallied, however, corn
firmed up a little and prices more than
recovered the loss, retaining most of the
appreciation until the close. May corn
opened from 273sd27Ac, advanced to 2Shc.
closing at 277sc-19c higher than Satur-
day. Cash corn was firm and 1ac higher.
Oats reflected the tone of wheat and
corn, the receipts being heavy however,
affording no encouragement to buyers and
causing some independence of weakness
early May oats closed nc higher than
Saturday. Cash oats were steady.
Provisions-There was a sharp demand
and a higher market for hogs at the yard
this morning, and agreeable thereto pro-
visions opened strong and afterwards ex-
hibited much frmness. The close was 321sc
higher for January pork, and 22hc higher
each for January lard and January ribs.
