Boy Scouts Encampment.

To the Parents of Boy Scouts:
 We desire to state briefly something about our Encamp- ment. We will leave Newport on the morning of the 22nd, go- ing to some point on Spring riv- .er between Hardy and Mammoth Spring where a permanent camp will be established in touch with the railroad and telephone. Each Scout will write to his fa- CT or mother daily.
 The following rules will be strictly enforced:
 l. No Scout shall go swim ming, boating, nor use fire arms, nor leave the camp, except by permission.
 2. No swearing, vulgar lan- guage, nor rough practical jokes will be permitted.
 3. No Scout shall use tobacco.
 4. To obey the Scout Law in principle as we'll as in letter, re- alizing that this requires unsel- fshness, manliness, helpfulness and cheerfulness. The Scout law is: "A Scout is trustwor- thy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheer ful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent."
 We trust that every parent will gladly give his consent to their Scout for this Encamp- ment as we are working for the good of all boys; we expect them to have a good time with good "eats' and to Do a good turn daily" It will cost you mo- thing, as the Scouts have earned the money and now have it in the bank.

Few Showers In This Section.

Few Showers In This Section.
 The cotton crop report for this
 week issued by T. J. Gregg, man. ager of the Lesser-Goldman Cotton Company, reports few showers in this section of the state and urges upon the far mers the necessity of keeping the soil stirred to prevent inju- ry by the drouth. The report is published below:
 Newport, Ark, June 16.-The past week has been very dry and
 hot and we have report of only a few local showers. There have been light rains in a part of the White River Ky. territory, showers on the M & N. A. R. R. above Searcy, heavy showers at Weldon and Walnut Ridge and light showers at Cabot and Tu- Ipelo. Advices received from all over the territory indicate satis- factory progress in growth of the crop. Plant generally heal- thy and very little if any deteri- .oration due to lack of moisture. We are glad to report satisfac- tory labor and financial condi- tions over the entire territory. Indications are for a speedy ter imitation of the drouth in this territory and never in the past fifteen years has cotton crop gone through so prolonged pe-
 riod of dry, hot weather as we are having, with as little dam age as this one. It is very evil !dent that methods of farming l. are being improved in this terri tory and that this crop has stood up as it has solely by req
 son if it's being we'll cultivated. There is quite a good deal of late planted cotton that is just up l and some little of it not up vet. This will have to hurry if it makes before frost. Our idea of the best way to hurry a crop is 1 to treat it in the same manner
 as you would some people and
 some mules; Stir It Up. A lit
 tie stirring is fine thing. More 1 is finer. This weather may be 1 too hot to do much stirring ex-
 cept perhaps, to stir the sugar
 and ice in a. glass of lemonade,
 but cotton will stand stirring
 with a blow and be better for it
 just as the mixture in the glass. We could write a lot on this
 STIR SUBJECT but we don't
 want to get you all stirred up
 and saying as, we have had
 said to us before, That it is cool
 CT and easier to stir with a type
 writer than to stir with a blow
