Bouton of Springdale. great increases in acreage in small grain, oats, wheat and rice are noted and large increases in production in excess of former years is predicted.
 Corn and Irish potatoes, while planted more extensively than in former years, do not promise as well as in the year 1917. This is attributed to weather conditions; immediately following planting. and also on account of the imma ture seed used in planting. Sweet potatoes also show marked reduction from the crop last year.
 The corn acreage on July 1, 1918, for Arkansas is given at 2.630,000, at against 2,8OO,O00 for last year; the production for this year is estimated at 5, 165.- 900 bushels as against 67, 100000 for 1917.
 CORN ACREAGE ON AVERAGE | It mad been confidently pre- l dicted that there would be large increase in corn acreage in the State. Reports from all sections of the State, while indicating substantial increases in parts of eastern and southern Arkansas. also showed decided decrease in acreagein northwest and some in northern Arkansas. which near II lv offset the gains made in the lother parts of the State. 1t is es Minated that there is an actual \ hcrease of 3o,eoo acres above | he large acreage Of ,aso year ll The present condition of the trLp, however, is eight points

 GARDEN AND FRUIT CROPS
 Meadows and pastures were adversely affected by the hot weather of June, but alfalfa and clover have yielded splendidly to date
 Garden crops were unfavora- bly, affected by the hot dry weather in June. but with the exception of cabbage they are close to the five-year average figures for condition.
 CantaloupeS and waterm elons are the only fruits in the State that promise an average yield. Blackberry canes were badly winter killed: peach trees, espec> ially in low ground, were severe k damaged. and the peach crop in the State is the poorest in years. Apples were hurt espec- ially in Benton county by the April freezes. but Washington county promises two thirds of a crop.
