Franklin Cotton Acreage Shows h.
 crease for 1916

According to estimates of T. M. Williams, county demonstra- tion agent for Franklin county, fully one-third more land has been planted to cotton this season than last. Irish potatoes, corn and peanuts are also report ed being raised in increased quantities this year. The sweet potato crop will be somewhat decreased as compared with last year.
 The berry crop this year was one of the largest ever harvested in this county, but the peach crop is not thought to be as large as last year although they are expected to command a higher price. The cherry crop was almost a total failure. Oats are not in very good condition owing principally to a slight siege of dry weather which hit them at a critical moment.

State Ranks 3rd in Production of
 Strawberries s

Arkansas ranks third in the number of acres of strawberries raised in the United States ac- cording to the United States De- partment of Agriculture, of the l9 straWberry-raising st a es. Arkansas, in 1916, 1t is estimat- ed, the estimates being based or the acreage in 1915, will De 13, SS0 acres. Tennessee comes first, with an acreage of l7. 469, and Louisiana second with 16, $40 acres. The figures are according to figures compiled by the Bureau of Crop Statistics. 5.
 The figures luther show that of the l9 states growing straw berries for the world market, IA of these are in the South. The total area, it is estimated. plant ed in 1916 in the South, was S7, ,31S acres of a total of III, 543 acres in the United States, There was an increase of more than 17,000 acres in the past year.
 Arkansas also ranks near the top in the increase growth dur ing the year 1916. The per cent increase is given as sos per cent. The comparative figures show that in 1915 Arkansas grew 9,205 acres, and in 1916, Is, 900 acres. The per cent in- crease speaks well for the profit able farming movement which was started in Arkansas in the last few years.
