CROPS AND WEATHER.
What the Agricultural Department Says Concerning These
 Matters.

LITTLE ROCK, Sept. 7.--For the week ending Monday. September ', the mean temperature for the week has averaged 5.5 degrees above the 'snormal and the average rainfall has been 0.69 inch less than the normal amount.
 Following are the total rainfalls for the week ending ' a. m. Monday September 6, reported by telegraph from selected stations; Brinkley, I0.50 inch; Little Rock, 0.16 inch; Malvern, 0.18 inch; Pine Bluff, 0.09 inch. and none at Forrest City, Ft. Smith, Helena, Newport, Prescott, Russelville, Texarkana and Warren.
 The excessive heat with drying winds and absence of moisture has done great damage to all growing crops.
 Cotton has fallen off greatly dur ing the week, there being much complaint of blight, rust, prema, ture opening Of bolls, shedding of blooms, squares and bolls, and worms doing much damage in local ities, many correspondents report the bottom crop as all they have to depend upon, the middle crop failing fast and no prospect for a top crop.
 Corn, peas, potatoes and garden truck generally are very poor.
 Pastures have failed and stock water is very scarce.
 The condition of fruit in the north west section is not so good as pre- viously reported, apples are feeling the want of moisture.
 Rain is needed for fall crops and to put the ground in condition for stubble breaking and fall blowing.
 CENTRAL SECTION.
 The temperature averaged 5.6 de- grees per day above the normal, and no rain fell except in few very light showers in widely scattered localities.
 The hot weather and protraeted drought has very seriously injured all growing crops. Cotton has suf- fered more than other crops-rust is everywhere and the dry winds have withered the plant, causing the top crop to fall off. Worms are quite numerous and are doidg considera- ble damage, and forest fires are re- ported in Jefferson county.
 Corn is a poor crop and not turn ing out as good as expected.
 Peas and all late gardens are very poor and almost failure.
 Pastures are dried up and stock water very scarce.
 At this time the outlook is very discouraging for all crops not matured. E. il. CLARKE, Section Director.
