COTTON CROP IN
 JEFFERSON IS IN NEED OF MOISTURE
With Favorable Rains Crop May Be 45,000 Bales,
 Says Agent.

Unless favorable rains visit Jeffer- son county soon, cotton vii begin to shed with damage to the crop, says Joel Lambert, county demonstration agent. With some moisture and no raids by the boil weevil, the crop will be about the average, 45,OO0 bales, Mir. Lambert said yesterday.
 Cotton is we'll fruited with small stalk and the crop will be good if the condition holds. Some top blooming already is reported, which indicates that the cotton has stopped growins. Shedding is feared unless there are favorable rains, but none has been reported The weevil has appeared in several localities, but the hot, dry weather has retarded the activity of the pest and it has caused little dam age. The fields are well worked and there is little grass.s $GA
 ~ Corn is spotted and MT. Lambert characterizes it's condition as "poor to good" The yield will be medium he said. The crop is very poor ln the hills and only good at some spots in the bottoms. Lots of young corn failed to come up.

MUST INSURE SAILORS

The appearance of the German sub- marines in American waters has caus- ed Secretary McAdoo to issue an or der requiring all American shipown- CTS to have insured the lives of the officers and crews of their vessels trading in Atlantic and Gulf waters. Mere fishing vessels are excepted.
 Heretofore this compulsory .insur- ance applied only to American vessels trading between the United States and various European and certain designated African ports.
 The rates the Treasury charges for the insurance varies from half cent per $100 on insurance for Atlantic coastwise trips to 15 cents per $10C for steamers crossing the war zone. More than 70,0O0,O00 officers anG sailors on American merchant vessels are already under the protection o1 the Government marine insurance.

, sensational matches of that tourna- ment.
 Boxing in the Navy. Special boxing tournaments among the American soldiers now in France many of whom had noted pugilistic records to their credit before joining the colors, are fully as popular with the French as to the overseas forces serving under the Stars and Stripes, At recent series of contests, the principal feature of which was a glove battle between Frankie Burns and Battling Mantell every available inch of space in the hall. even up to the rafters above the third balcony was occupied, and many were forced to gather outside to await the returns. Seats; were at premium two weeks before the show. The whole city where the bouts were held declared a holiday for the evening, and it was midnight before the celebration was ended.
 The French people are very enthu- siastic about the sport, and many high French officers made special trips for the occasion The entire force of American officers in the section was represented. A large sprinkling of women was in attendance, and they apparently enjoyed every feature ot the entertainment. This section has an array of clever boxers at the present time, and it is expected that some familiar names will figure at the next show.
 Burns, the well-known Pacific coast lightweight and an enlisted member of the 35th Engineers, upheld his California reputation by knocking out Mantell, a Brooklyn boy who is a. member of the cavalry squadron, in the eghth round. Frank Mcclure also of the 35th Engineers. who halls from Edgewood Park, Pittsburg and was former sparring partner TOT Harry Greb, stopped Young Attel of the Cavalry with a succession or right uppercuts to the body in the sixth round Burns and Mcclure scored knockout victories within month on this occasion.
 Sergeant Eric Ramey of the Engi- neers and a Milwaukee. Wis.,, man had all the better of bout with Young Vincent of the Cavalry, when he acct dentally landed a swing low on hls opponents body and was dloqualllleu for an unintentional foul.
 Burns Wallops Nantell.
 By stopping Mantell. who has made his mark against the best boxers m the United States and Australia, Burns again proved he still has those assets which carried him through his earlier fights with Wolgast. RiV- CTS. Mcfarland. Scaler, the Annex force man gassed by the Germans Snailham, Hogan. Azavedo, Ritchle. and many other stars who have enter ed the puglistic hall of fame within the last ten years. Burns has outlast- ed all these men. and he and his trainers claim that he is just now at the height of his career.
 Both men entered in perfect con dition. Mantell kept his body well covered during the first seven rounds leaving Burns only an iron jaw ane head to play for. Burns left hand was in fine working order, as usual, ano turnout the earlier rounds ne ]appee
 and hooked, mostly with his left planting an occasional straight, hare right to tha face as follow-up. Al infiehting, some hard body punches were exchanged. :. On several occasions, the sltuatlol

AMERICAN AVIATORS
 RESCUE BRITISH CREW
Yankee Flyers Picker Up From Wrecked Seaplane Men Who Had
 Been Shot Down by Huns

An American Aviation Base, Some where in England, June 3O.-(Cor- respondence of The Associated Press. )-The feat of two American aviators in rescueing the crew of a British seaplane which had been fore ed to land on the surface fthe North Sea after an encounter with group of German airplanes, received men tion this week in a British communl- que. The official statement, however, said only:
 "In one case a stray bullet shot away a control, and the British ma chine was forced to alight. The crew were subsequently rescued by another British seaplane, which had been sent to search for them."
 The rescuing machine was manned bp Ensings Benjamin Lee and J. J. Schieffelin, of the American Naval Aviation Service Ensign Lee gave The Associated Press the following account of the flight:
 Our commanding officer and two men left the station at 3:3O in the morning on a flight toward the Dutch coast. Shortly after sun1tse they saw on the horizon, five spots which rapidly assumed the outlines of German seaplanes.
 Five to one is hardly a fight, so the commanding officer, after first diving charge through the enemy's formation, showed down the nose of his plane and headed homeward. His two men fired sharply from the after guns, forcing the German scouts to keep their distance. They were get ting away all right, even leading the enemy into dangerous territory. when suddenly chance shot from one of the Germans took away a control and the flying-boat chashed nose down, The three men fought clear of the wreckage and got hold of floating spar, while the Germans, realizing they were in dangerous country. scooted away homeward.
 "It was four hours later, when the patrol, was long overdue, that we were sent out to search for them. We searched the horibon as we speeded alonp eastward, covering at the visi- l bility, a band about twenty miles wide. Finally one of us picked up g a blackspeck, which soon grew into g piece of wreckage with three men or it.
 Dropping our bombs at a safe dis tance, we throttled down our motor: and landed near the crashed seaplane It was delicate operation, but w managed to taxi over to the wreck age and pick off the four men, mean while sending back the goods new
 by wireless.
 "The only comment the comman ing officer had to make on his eH
 perience was: "What's ducking ! Just bit of experienced"

PLAN MORE POWER
 FOR DEFENSE COUNCIL

Little Rock, July 22-There will be introduced in the Legislature next January bill to confer power on the State Council of Defense that will en- able them to handle effectively many matters in which it can now act only in an advisory capacity. Other states, notably Kansas, Minnesota, and Delaware, have enacted laws upon the subject conferring almost police powers upon their Council of Defense. The Delaware law empowers the Council to enforce strict labor regula- tions that have eliminated the prob lem of idle labor, which has been such serious stumbling block to indus trial progress in Arkansas. Such laws are being demanded by Arkansas manufacturing plants, and it is ex- pected that the Legislature will read fly confer upon the Council such pow CTS as may be necessary to secure the maximum of results from the man. power of the state.

New York, July 22.--The announce ment that Ichiya Kumagae, leading tennis player of Japan is soon to arrive in this country and will prob
 ably play in the coming national
 championship tournaments Twill be
 welcome news to devotees of the court game. His entry in the titular tournament to be played at Forest Hills, Long Island, late in August in company with his countryman Ka- shiro will give an international as pect to the play at the West Side club which will compensate, to some extent, for the absence of the major ity of the first ten ranking Ameri-
 han players, who are fin various
 branches of war services.
 If Kumagee can regain or improve upon the form shown when he visited this country in 1916 it can be stated
 without fear of contradiction that the Japanese racquet expert stands an excellent chance of winning the championship tournament which has been restored after lapse of one season. With Kashiro he would make a formidable doubles pair, for the former came within stroke of de- feating w. M. Hall and winning his way into the final round ot the Mid dle States tournament held recently at Orange, N. J. Kashiro later suf- tfere a nervous breakdown but reports indicate that he will regain his form after period of rest.
 Even tho Kumagee confined his ef- forts to singles his 1916 record indi- cates that he would have to be reck- oned with for his play was the sen- Sation of the tournament season when he won the Newport, New York State and Central States tournaments. During his stay in America he de- feated William M. Johnson, Clarence J. Griffin, Nat w. Niles, E. H. Whit ney, Craig Riddle, G. c. Gamer, J. $. Cannon, Roland M. Hoerr. w. s.
