The Meather az tne crops.

The weather and crop report is.
sued last week for the Mississippi
section reads as follows:
The mean temperature for the week
was from degree to 4 degrees above
normal Fair weather with much sun,
shine prevailed, although there were
widely scattered showers over the
northern and central portions Of the
State, the heaviest rainfall reported
being threefourths Of an inch at
Batesville.
Conditions were almost ideal for
picking cotton which generally made
good progress, although in many sec.
tions pickers were in great demand.
Cotton is practically all open on hill
lands, and in the southern and east
ern counties picking is nearing com.
pletion, the bulk Of the crop having
been secured in excellent condition
and with better yields than was ex'
pected two or three weeks ago. In
the delta and on low lands elsewhere
bolls are opening very fast and gath
ering is being rushed, but as picking
has been unable to keep pace with
opening heavy rain and wind storm
within the near future would prove
very damaging to the large amount OF
unpicked open cotton. Gins are run
ming at full capacity in nearly all sec
lions.
Corn gathering continues with gen
orally very satisfactory yields. Peas
and potatoes are also yielding well
Fall crops are very poor. The pro
longed drouth over the greater por
ton of the State is becoming quite Sc
rious and in many localities it is diff
cult to secure water for family use, al
wells and springs are failing.

Of Interest To Sick People.

We have all the sympathy in the world for sick people, and want to treat them in a serious way. There is no humor in pain and affliction, but hard earnest fact. It is impossible for the patient to impress on others the extent of suffering they endure,
 and their anxiety for relief. To get we'll or be relieved is their onethougbt any remedy that will bring this about has their everlasting gratitude. We have thousands of letters frcln people who have had dyspepsia, sick-head- ache and bilious attacks, who tell us how thankful they were forhaving used pr. Gunn's Improved Liver Pills. They are sold at all drug stores for Poo per box. Only one for dose. These pills remove the cause of disease and make the skin clear and healthy looking. For sale by Cover Drug Co.

SING, YE ARIZONA BULLsROGS."

Copious rains have recently fallen upon the parched acres of the Salt river valley, in the vicinity of Phoe- nix, in close proximity to which all the productive land of the old Salt is situate. These showers are welcomed, but none show their appreciation more unreserved than the bard of the Repub- lican, who, as Mrs. Burlington was wont to say, goes into "extracies'' over the welcome visitation in several stanzas entitled, "Sing, Ye Arizona Bullfrogs." The rhyme is:-
 Sing, Se Arizona Bull Frogs
 Let your anthems All the air,
 For the glorious rains of summer
 That have fallen everywhere
 Sing, for deserts now are verdant:
 For dry washes now turned to rills' For the bunch grass in the mountains;
 For the browse upon the hills.
 Sing in glad resounding chorus
 For the tanks that once were dry, Now are filled with sprightly tadpoles To be froglets bye-and-bye.
 Sing for farmers. long bewhiskered,
 Who with anxious care have wrought. Stealing water through the su inner
 That some months before they bought. 
 Sing. ye Arizona Bull Frogs
 Sound your voices loud anc clear For your wild diScordant music
 Is the sweetest of the year.

A Great cycIoped,s at Little Cost.

A unique publication, remarkable in many respects, is the Polyglot Cyclo- pediS, in 40 volumes, about 28,000 pages and 1000 illustrations. It is the largest but one of American Cy- clopedias, and includes in one alpha betical order Library of Universal Knowledge, an Unabridged Diction- ary of the English language, Gazet- teer of the world, Cyclopedias of Bi- ography, History, Natural History, Science, Religious Knowledge, Me- chanics, Education, Mythology, Die tionary of Synonyms, Antoyms, Pseu- donyms, Characters in Fiction, Quo- tations. notable words and phrases from all foreign languages which are frequently found in English literature, also Dictionaries of the Latin, French and German languages, etc., ct.
 It is in ideal handy volumes, about TOO pages each, which don't need a derrick" to handle-the only such Cyclopedia; it's peculiar form and ar engagement make it possible to be kept up-to-date more thoroughly than other Cyclopedias; every title is pronounced "a feature of great merit possessed by no other Cyclopedia: it is of the highest scholarship, the work of a small army of eminent writers and trained cyclopedists; it's numerous maps are excellent and in separate volume (making Il volumes) full atlas size, instead of being foolishly fool ishly folded and scattered among many volumes; its large type and handy form make it easier for the eye than other Cyclopedias; Revolving Book Case supplied at nominal cost gives the final touch of convenience and utility to the Cyclopedia.
 Perhaps the most wonderful feature pared with other high-class Cyclope- dias, and, if desired, unusually easy terms of payment.
 For purpose of introduction volume one in cloth binding, will be sent post paid to THE SUN readers who will within one week inclose this notice and send to the publisher the nominal amount of 40 cents, or half morocco binding for 60 cents, and money will h., rof,odad ,o ,hnso nh, abonsa ,n ,a turn the volume.

Fall and spring setting each have their advantages and
their corresponding disadvantages Trees set in the fall
have the advantage of any root growth that may take
place the winter The soil viii settle around the roots

the weather than upon the in which the work is
done If there is plenty Of rain in the fall to put the
