CROP REPORT
ISSUED YESTERDAY
From The Office of Commits
sioner of Agriculture
Guy B. Tucker.

Little Rock, July Bumper
cotton crops and more corn than
usual, is the report of the crop
issued yesterday by Commission
err of Agriculture Guy B. Tucker.
The report does not give any in
dication of the condition in the
counties which suffered the most
from overflow, buJ 60 counties of
the State are represented in the
report, and in every one the need
of rain is mentioned. The crop
report is far more favorable than
the one issued last year at this
time, in spite of the fact that cot
ton was generally ruined in the
bottom counties. Where the
/ floods did not destroy the cotton
crop, the report shows the con-
dition to be better than in years,
though in great many of the
counties the acreage has been
decreased and corn planted in
stead. The decrease in acreage
of these counties amounts from
10 to Is per cent and wherever
there is a loss in cotton, corn is
a gamer. The short dry season
which has just passed, has put
the corn crop badly in need of
rain, and unless there is a gene
raj rain within the next few
weeks, this crop will be seriously
affected. EVERYWHERE the fruit
crop is good, and as this crop is
practically ready for market, it
is not expected to decrease any
in the future. While the cotton
crop this year is fully two weeks
late, from the report, the yield
is expected to be much larger
than last year. and the grade
higher.

Most men who own a watch
think they know all about it.
They have the number fixed in
their mind in case it is stolen.
They could probably pick it out
from so other watches with their
eyes shut. But how many men
know that their watch is COM
pass and will tell north from
south as accurately as it Will tell
the time of day? Stanley, the
explorer, did not know it until
he had CROPPED his way through
the continent and met a Belgian
soldier on the coast. Every
watch Is compass. If you
point the hour hand to the sun,
the south is exactly half way be-
tween the hour and the XII to
the dial. Suppose for instance.
it is four O'Clock. Point the
hand indicating four to the sun
and the XII on the watch is ex-
actly south. If it is eight o'clock
point the hand indicating eight
to the sun and the figure X on
the watch is exactly south. No
man need get lost if he carries
a watch.

ARKANSAS RIVER
is NAVICABLE
Says Mayor W. R. Duley of
Little Rock, and Always
Has Been.

Little Rock, Arkansas, July Z.
THE Iron Mountain and Fris-
co railroads are responsible for
the Arkansas river not being
navigated as in former years, -
states Mayor w. R. Duley, for
as soon as rate is made by one
of these roads, talk of river nav
igation subsidies. The Arkansas
river is navigable today and all
it takes is common sense men to
go at it. The old river men look
at the river and say it cannot be
done. Of course the big boats
with the old style keel cannot go
up and down like they did a dec
ade ago, but fiat bottom boats
built along the proper lines can
come and go on that river near
ly every month in the year, for
all they want is a couple Of feet
of water. The old steam boat
captains remember the failure OF
the bond issue in the '7O's and
they have not remembered a
thing since. Every once in a
while you hear Of the river traf-
fic being revived. This is done
to get a water rare from the
railroads. 1t is granted and you
hear nothing more of river navl-
CATION and the railroad comes
out ahead. The people do not
have the confidence in boat lines
as they used to, but they are
coming back some day, and |
hope the Muskogee boat, which
is soon to go up the river proves
this to the people. We need a
boat-line to Muskogee, for Little
Rock needs the crude oil pumped
out of the ground there. With a
i line of barges bringing down
that crude oil at very cheap
rates, Little Rock would be in it
strictly
+ Ma yor Duley was for years a
railroad conductor, and has also
been a close student of t river.
j He has in the city hall with him
the government engineers of this
state, and versed himself we'll in
the changes of the river through
consultation with these engi-
neers before talking on the barge
line proposition.

DOMESTIC TRANQUILITY.

We are frequently told nova
days that drink plays only a mi
nor part in the divorce evil.
Probably if all the particulars
i ere told in divorce cases we
should find that in many cases
where drink is not mentioned,
they actually have their origin in
whisky and beer. In certain
city the other day seven women
were granted divorces. Three
cases were, on the surface, drink
cases. The published report sug-
gested drink in three of the 9TH
ers.
In the first case tried the wife
testified: He came home about
two in the morning and wanted
a lunch. When | didn't want to
set it out for him he hit me. |
then ran to a neighbours and sent
a private detective over to ask
him to take a Turkish bath and
sober up. Did he do it? | should
say not. He sent back word that
he would put my coffin against
the wall under the telephone and
he described my shroud he was
going to buy for me, so | didn't
go near him any more. He used
to come home two or three times
a week and abused me. =
In another case the report says:
BERTHE Gibson testified that her
husband dragged her across the
room and tried to hold her face
against a hot stove. She left
him because he came home drunk
so often.
Now, don't satisfy your con-
