 As in previous adyices, we rciter- ate that the outlook is for a better and more active market.

BIG PROSPECT FOR
 BIG DIAMOND YIELD
.iRhANSAS MINES ARE TO BE DEVELOPED BY DIAMOND
 MINING CONCERN.
Acting Governor Rodgers Interested Plant Will Be One Oi Large
 Capacity.

Litt'e Rock, Aug. 6.--Ac 'ng Gov 'efner w. c. Rdgers, wh has been Interested in the development of the diamond mines of Southwest Arkan- sas, says there is a prospect Of great ly increased activity in the near fu- ture. In the last four years, there has been about $25,100 worth of gems found, none Of them more than four feet below tae surface. The area m which diamonds are known to be "in place. otherwise the "p'pe", covers slXty-tWo acres, and is the largest such area ill he world so far as known.
 The Ozark Diamond Mining Co.,, of which k. D. Duncan, of Little Rock is enc of the leading promoters, is pre- pairing to install a diamond wash ng plant hat vii cost $30,000, and al ready has 50,000 feet of lumber on the ground to begin the work. The machinery is of the, very latest im- proved type, similar to that used in the South African mines, and will be capable of handling as much as 100,- O5O tons of dirt annually.
 Another plantsas large will be in stalled in the Mauney mines, which have been leased by Miller & Co, of Chicago, expert diamond washers. The plant will be arranged in units so that it can be increased as rapidly as needed.

Big Harvest Promised
 Says New York Banker
Henry Giews Pleased With Outlook Political Situation Satisfactory.

Henry Clews, the New York bank CT, member of the firm of Henry Clews tS Co.,, takes most optimistic view of the trade and business situation, in his latest letter. He says a great har- vest is unques' 'ionably promised and that the outlook for a good business in every line is most pronounced. In part, he says:
 The United States seems to have taken in Mother Nature as a special partner, and once more the country promises to be favored wi.h good harVests. If present calculations are realized we shall garner a 100000, 600 bushel wheat crop, a 2,900,000,00o bushel corn crop and a 1,200, 100000 bushel oats crop. The yield of pota- toes and hay is also likely to be con- siderably ahead of last year. The total value of these five crops is esti- mated at $3,600, ,000,O ,O00, or about S200,- 0oO,000 ahead of last year. In all probability the aggregate of all ag
 ricultural wealth produced this year will be about S9,000,0 900, as against $8,500,0 100000, the figures of the de- partment of agriculture fast year. What this annual production of new wealth means to this country may be 'lmated when it is remembered that the capital stock of all the railroads in the United States is placed at $S,- 470,000,000. An increase of $500, ,O00,- GOO in agricultural products in sin gle year can not hut be powerful stimulus to business
 Bankers in all portions of the West are agreed that the crop situation is satisfactory that business is in more promising condition than for several years past and that the business men Of the interior have decided to elim- mate politics from their calculations. This is practical expression of in- creased confidence based upon posi-
 lvely improved intrinsic conditions.
 The cotton crop seems likely to fall below early expeetions, but the yield will, nevertheless be large and plan ters are securing prices which afford good profits. The South enjoyed ex- eeptional prosperity last year and is not likely to fall behind seriously dur ing the next twelve months. August IS usually month of deterioration so moderate falling off in condition used cause no surprise in the final report
 The stock market has been strange ly backward in reflecting the better ment of conditions in the interior. This must he largely attributed to the absence of genuine leadership. The stock market is literally taking care eff itself and stagnation was increas- ed sby the fact that the vacation sea- son is now at it's height. Wall street is not governed alone by crops and ibusiness, as is the case in the interior.

PROGRESS MADE IN
 ANTI-TICK CRUSADE
APPRoXiNiTELY 15,000 HEAD OF CATTLE FREED 0F pEXr
 DURING PA$T NONTa
There Are Two Methods oi Fighting the E'ii-fouutic> Released
 From QHarantine.

Little Rock. Aug. 6-Approximate- ly l,903 head of cattle were freed from the presence of ticks in tass State during the last month under he supervision of the government tIck eradication station in coniune- flon with State authorities and through .ceal county cooperation. Inls is not so large a number as has bfen geated in some of the other >1uthern Sta es, but is a good show l22 fer tt" work at this stage of it's drFelophent The Importance of this war en the ticks is apparent from me government estimate that the Souh loses annually $40,000.oO on ac- count of the depredations of the pest, of Waich amougt Arkansas loss is about $2o0o,o4G.
 T4eer are two methods of fighting t4e eYil-first, the starvation method of Che tick by keeping the cattle oul ei the pasea!es infested, but this means is impracticable i'll th.s coun- tiN; second. anI the one now used y successfully. is by killia the tick with 10 son solution either by spra}in or dipp ng. Of these. al- though not always so convenient, dipping is by far the most satisfac- tory. \ val is filled with water and solution of arse9ic which is deadly p3sson 10 the ticks. The cattle are driven through the vat and after be- ing submerged ill the solu ion are let out totally disinfected. This treat ment is TePeaeed every twentyo-one days until finally all the ticks of the community are. taken up by the cat tie and in turn are k lied by the pols- on, after which the district is re- leased from quarantine and the res tHictions in shipment done away with. The community must raise the money to build the vat, wh ch averages about s, but all subsequent expenses are borne either by the government or the SJa5e.
 A. E. Whie, the government repre- seGtaiva fer this SGate and Louisiana reports that the following counties have been released from quarantine: Benton. Carroll, Madison, Washington Randolph, Clay, Greene, Lawrence, Craighead, Miss sslppi and Poinsett. Tn addition to tais active wrk is be- ing carried on in Boone, Newton, Ful- on a9l IzSTd Counties, and it is ex- pected that these counties VII soon be released from quarantine. The general pan, acording to MT. White, is to work from the nor ,hern part of the State scuthward. In other coun- ties not under direct supervision of the station the farmers have profited by the government experts, advice through correspondence. Independence
 
 County, fer instance has twelve vats, all under local supervis on entirely.
 Reliable authorities estimate and eNposiepce demonstrates that the use of this method of tick eradication in- creases tae value of steers from 40 to 90 per cent and the weight p per cent
 Although slow to realize the great benefits of sc entific methods in this regard says Mr. White, ''the farmers are beginning to take hold of it now, and wi their cooperation we are expecting 70 accomplish much good"
