CROP CONDITIONS
 IN STATE NORMAL
Estimated Cotton Acreage Is 10 Per Cent Over
 Last Year.

Little Rock, May 9.-The consensus 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 temper ature being too low for the germina- tion of cotton. The plant in the low lands, as a rule, where it was plant ed about the middle of April is growing we'll, and is in much better condition than that planted earlier, while the later planting is not up yet.
 It is estimated that there is an in crease of to 10 per cent in the cot ton acreage of the state. There is also disposition toward diversified and intensive farming. More corn. grain, hay and live is being raised. This does not mean less cotton, but the policy is "More cotton, at less cost, on less land." More fertilizer is being used than ever before, and scientific methods are more preva- lent.
 So far this season there has beel very little damage due to oyerflows except in a section near Philadelphia on the Ouachita, where several thou san acres of cotton were destroyed.

 Huerta has not, it seems, pitted the flower of his army against Villa and Carranza. He will have a good nucle- US for defensive force if he concen- trates his regular army in the vicinity of Mexico City.
 The results of other clashes be- tween American and Mexican troops proves the northerner is immensely superior man for man to the MeXi- can soldier. He has more intelligence, is usually in better physical trim and, if'not braver, is possessed of certain dash and enthusiasm which carries long way.
 Besides the land forces enumerated, Huerta has an insignificant navy, of which the fighting personnel consists of 1900 officers and enlisted men. The whole Mexican fleet of nine vessels would not have the slightest chance against a single American warship of fairly up-to-date type.
 Aviation Corps Ahead of U. S.
 In one branch of the service, ac- cording to some accounts, Huerta is superior to us. This is in aviation Just how many aeroplanes and hydro planes he has is not certain, but it is admitted his force is much more inn posing than the pitiful exhibition the United tates can assemble. The Unit ed States ranks in point of aeroplane equipment, twenty-third on the list of nations, being we'll down behind China Belgium, Switzerland, Brazil, Argentina and Morocco.

GIRLS IN BAD HEALTH

Hundreds of girls go to work day after day, afflicted with some ailment peculiar to their sex, dragging one foot wearily after the other, working always with one eye on the clock and wishing for closing time to come. Ev- cry such girl should rely on Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to restore her to normal healthy con- dition, then work will be a pleasure. For forty years this famous root and herb medicine has been pre-eminently successful in controlling the diseases of women. Why don't you try it?
