ARKANSAS CROP REPORT.
Cotton Has shown Rapid Improve ment Most Corn Laid By Har vesting in Progress Northern
 Section Needs Rain.

Following is the weather bureaus report on the condition of crops in Arkansas for the week ending July 6:
 The temperature was seasonal dur ing the week with copious and fairly we'll distributed showers during the week. Considerable progress was made in cleaning fields of weeds, and as rule crops are now fairly clean throughout the state. Cotton made rapid growth, and while very late it has made great improvement during the week; as a rule the color is good, the stand fair and some of the early planted is beginning to bloom and the plant is taking on better form. Corn is growing rapidly and is now nearly all laid by; the stalk is small, but the color is good generally and it is tas- selling out well; a full yield is not an tieipated. The harvesting of oats and wheat is progressing well, but the yield of these crops will be light; some was damaged by rust. Potatoes are being harvested and good yields of excellent quality secured, except in some northwest counties, where the crop has been failure. Apples continue to promise g poor crop and peaches are almost a failure. The berry crop is good. Gardens, pas lures and forage crops are excellent.
