Crop Conditions.

The weekly summary Of Arkansas crop conditions for the week ending September 26. is as follows. The week was characterized by seasonable tenn peratares and cloudy weather. with showers. which broke the drought in many sections of the state. but were too light in some sections to prove of more than a temporary relief. Cot. ton improved very little. although there is less complaint of shedding The top crop will be short Picking is now general, in some sections it was retarded by Showery conditions. while ill other sections considerable progress was made Early corn is being gathered in many portions of the state. The yields secured have generally been very satisfactory. Late corn was benefited by recent rains, but will make a short crop. Late Irish potatoes, turnips peas and pas lures were greatly benefited by rains. Sweet potatoes promise fair to good crop Considerable peavine hay was secured in good condition Very little fall blowing has been done up To the present but the ground is now in fine tilth in many sections, and this work will be pushed. Apples and peaches will be fair crops of medium quality Stock is healthy and doing upll
