NEW lURk, July 26.--Journal of Commerce
says
Lousiana-Prospects rather good, except
Tor the SmallneSS OF the plant. which is due
to a dry season. Since the 10th of the month
rains have been ample and the plant is gener-
ally reported healthy and strong and fruting
we'll. Cultivation is good and fields are free
from grass, while the boil weevils are doing
very little damage. Occasionally the season
is reported late Condition mas not changed
materially from last month. when it was 75.3
per cent, year ago II was I9.6; in 1915 IL
was 20, and in 1914 ii 10.

healthy with good cultivation and clean fields.
This is in strong contrast with n year ago.

iured cotton and percentage condition was 81 s..

cpssive and the boil weevil is making .edd-
way. but the farmers are fighting the pest,
apparently with success. The season is late,
wecvil there are no insects and shedding g

our last report very general and an ad-
vance of few points may be expected over a
month ago. when percentage condition was

1914 it 20 per cent. The plant Is small
