CROP CONDITION IN
ARK ANSAS ABOUT NORMAL
Estimated that there is Small In
crease in Cotton Average. Dis
position Toward Diversified
tiOn. Intensive Farming.

Little Rock, May THE consesus
of opinion among agricultural ex-
perts throughout the state is that
crop conditions at this time are about
normal
The weather during the past week
was in the main unfavorable, there
being too much rain, and the tempera-
ture being too low, for the germina-
ton of cotton. The plant in the low
lands, as a rule, where it was planted
about the middle of April, is growing
well, and is in much better condition
than that planted earlier, while the
later planting is not up yet
1t is estimated that there is an in
crease of to 10 per cent in the cot
ton average of the state. There is al
so a disposition toward diversified
and intensive farming. More corn,
grain, hay and live stock is being
raised. This does not mean less cot
ton, but the policy is More cotton, at
less cost, on less land More ferti-
lizer is being used than ever before,
and scientific methods are more pre-
valent.
SO far this season there has been
very little damage due to overfows,
except in a section near Arkadelphia,
on the Ouachita, where several thou
sand acres of cotton was destroyed.

Carranza Tells of Victory.

Senor Zubaran made public the fol-
lowing message from General Car
rama on the military successes of the
Constitutionalists:
General Pablo Gonzales informs me
that on May 5th General Carrera Tor
res defeated 5000 Federals at Penza-
cos, near San Luis Potosi, capturing
General Arzamendi with all the Off
GERS of his staff, three military trains
1900 prisoners and great quantity
of arms and ammunition.
General Obregon, operating on the
west coast, informs me that he has
captured Acaponeta, 100 miles below
Mazatlan, in the territory of Topic,
the whole Federal garrison having
surrendered, composed of more than
LOO men. We captured 1000 Mau-
ser rifles, three field pieces, several
machine guns and, what is best of all
100000 rounds of ammunition. Gen
eral Abregon has completed the seige
of Mazatlan, the gunboat Morelos hav-
ing grounded at the Island Piedra and
has been put out of commission by
our artillery.
"The forces of General Pablo Con
zales overlook the column which fled
from Monterey to Saltillo, capturing
six field guns and much artillery and
rifle ammunition"

TO ATTACK FROM
THREE DIRECTIONS
Rebels Plan General Advance on Citv
OF Mexico. General Carranza
Says He viii Take City
In Three Weeks

Washington, May 6.-From three
direction the armies of the Constitu-
tionalists will soon be bearing down
upon the City of Mexico. All three
are within 300 miles of the Federal
capital, and unless Huerta gives up
the struggle and fees, General Car
rama will establish his capital in
Mexico City within few weeks.
This was the message Carranza to-
day sent to Rafael Zubaran his minis
ter of the interior, who is in Washing
ton.
Senior Zubaran had a direct wire
set up to the headquarters of General
Carranza in Chihuahua today. Gen
eral Carranza's message showed that
three converging campaigns are in ac-
tive operation, each within 500 miles
OF Mexico City. General Obregon,
with $4,000 men, operating from the
Pacific coast side, has captured all the
intervening territory is besieging Ma
zatlan and threatening Mexico City
from the West.
Another division, General Carranza
reported, has fought battle at Pen
zacos, near San Luis Potosi, which is
300 miles north of Mexico City.
Close TO Mexico City.
This is the southermost point which
the Constitutionalists have reached in
Central Mexico, and with the army
now attacking at Tampico, they de
clare that the general advance on the
Mexican capital is to be made within
few weeks from three sides.
The significance of these Constitu-
tionalist successes is that San Luis
Potosi is far south of Saltilo and only
800 miles from Tampico on the west
and Mexico City on the south. Gen
eral CarranZa's report of the desper-
ate condition of the Federals at MAJ
atlan was coincident with reports
from Rear Admiral Howard. He
stated that land and sea engagement
was carried on there all yesterday,
the Constituencies firing rifles and
field guns from Piedra Island, while
the Federal gunboat, Morelos, was
supported by the federal shore bat
ferries

that the program will be even better
