Present Indications Are That 1917
Crop Will Be No Better Than
Crops Of Two Previous Years.
By W. E. Ayres, University Of ATkan-
sas Experiment Station.

The world must have cotton. Dixie
| furnishes about 81 per cent OF the
worlds supply. The production of this
staple in the South was about 20 per
cent below normal in both 1915 and
1918. Present indications are that the
1917 crop will be no better than the
crops of the previous two years. The
reserve supply will be practically ex-
hausted before the 1917 crop is on the
market. Our country and our allies
will in all probability demand thirteen
and one-half million bales from this
country next year. There is every
reason to believe now that the crop
can not, with best of care and favor
able weather, be made to reach this
figure, and there surely is not the
slightest chance Of producing sur
plus. The prices for all products Of
the cotton plant will undoubtedly be
satisfactory.
Must Produce Maximum Crop.
The present cotton crop has been
late from the start, and has improved
very slowly. It's condition is now
much below normal. The boil weevil
has begun his work in many sections,
and will do his 'bit" to curtail produc-
ton. 1t is imperative, therefore, that
Arkansas farmers use every known
economical resource In stimulating
growth and bringing the per acre pro-
duction to the maximum. The South
must well nigh clothe the soldiers
and the civilian population of both
this country and the Entente, in addi-
tion to supplying them with fibre for
high explosives for their armies and
navies.
Why Arkansas Should BeIGreatest
Cotton State.
Our state can, for two reasons, help
more in making good the shortage
than can the average Southern state
In the first place, we are not 80 de-
pendent upon the supply of potash
salts which can no longer be obtained
as are many Of our sister states which
have greater areas of Coastal Plains
soils which are deficient in potash. In
the second place, our climate Is such
that larger percentage Of our heavy
cotton producing areas 1s not yet suf-
fciently infested with boil weevil to
curtail production materially.
Shallow Cultivation Essential.
Shallow cultivation often enough to
keep down weeds and grass and pre-
serve mulch is always to be recon-
mended, but 1t is essential to the ma.

Every new town retaken by the

Officers could also enter private

Forced as the Germans now are to
realize that they cannot hold indefi-

being used for the open purpose of

AT Guivry two horses were in some

BILE. For this four inhabitants who
knew nothing about the affair were
found guilty and forced to pay 5000
marks.
At Ugny-le-Gay house was burn
ed down by the Germans themselves.
Nevertheless, they charged that the
owner had set fire to the structure.
The village as a whole was held re-
sponsible and forced to pay 10000
marks.
AT the same village civilian was
heavily fined for driving horse
which the Germans declared was not
sufficiently currycombed. As a search
of the mans premises failed to reveal
sufficient amount of money to pay
the fine he was given fifteen days in
prison.
Failure in every instance to pro
duce the AMOUNT of cash fined by the
Germans is invariably followed by
deportation or long prison sentences.
At Channy, three prominent citi-
zens were imprisoned. An offer was
| then made to release them upon the
surrender of "A certain amount in mu-

finally secured, whereupon the Ger
mans deciding they wanted the cash

latter, and confined the three men in
