 The Crop Prospect

Memphis, Tenn, Sept. 15.-Re- ports by correspondents of The Commercial Appeal indicate that the cotton crop has deteriorated generally and in some states rath- CT severaly. The exception is Okla- homa, and, to modified degree, Tennessee.
 Change in condition varied from . deterioration of about points in Alabama to { gain of I or 2 points in Oklahoma. Deterioration gener- ally was rather more pronounced in the eastern and central belt than in the west.
 Weather conditions on the whole were more favorable than other wise, but depreciation was due to such ndependant causes as late ness, worm and weevil damage, and the insecure position of the plant brought about by early vicissitudes. Some of these causes were aggra- vated by light to moderate rains, which ordinarily would have been beneficial and were aeually needed for crops other than cotton.
 This report covers the period from Aug. 20, on which date we showed a percentage condition of 62.6, up to and including Sept. To 1t is based on correspondence GOV. ering in detail FPS counties em- braeed in the 10 principal cotton. producing states.
 Temperatures-Temperature aver aged about seasonal, normal, except low in Texas, Arkansas and Okla homa, during the first wee1 of pc.
The courier-index., 1919-09-19

riod; night temperatures below sea- sonal normal in Tennessee during second week, and mostly about nor nal, except for slight defiency in Eastern Texas third week.
 Rainfall-Mostly scattered and moderate to light throughout the pe- riod but regarded as deterimental lower half of Georgia, and west ward along the gulf coast including Texas. Atlantics needed rain, but lo- cal complaints too much moisture.
 General Weather Condisions-Un- favorable in Atlantic states and Louisiana, and generally favorable elsewhere, except Louisiana.
 Appearance of the Plant-Gener- ally healthy looking and frequent ly luxuriant. Surprisingly few com plaints premature opening and top blooms, but plant is exposed on ac- count of lateness to sudden deterior- ation.
 Fruitage-The following figures lndlcate the condition as to frultage by county units: Bottom crop, good 257, fair 24l, poor 256. Middle crop, good lS6, fair, 21s, poor $50. Top crop, good 99, fair 55, poor 36l, chance for top crop, but un- developed 139. Good bottom mid dle and top crops AS. Fair to good bottom, middle and top crops 132 Fair middle and bottom crops 365 Fair crop on two or tmore parts of the plant 379. Fair crop on only one part of the plant S22. Bottom crop only ITO.

Cashier Is Held Up
 In St. Francis Bank

St. Francis, Ark, Sept. 16-Con- fronted by two masked men, each holding a brace of guns, Casnier' A. D. Lack of the Bank of St. Francis. was forced today at noon to hand over all the funds he had in the teller's cage, $455. The rob bers appeared at noon today as MT. Lack was alone in the bank. They escaped from the town of St. Francis in multi-cyclindered high powered car.
 Two hours later two young men driving a car similar to the one Tn which the hold-up men rode were catpured at Greenway, near the scene of the crime They gave the names of Charles and J. H. Elder. When captured they had $263 on their persons.
 The prisoners were hurriedly talk en to Piggott, where they waived examination and were held for the grand jury. They declined to make statement.
 The Elders are said to be broth CTS. They are about 21 years of age and came to Clay county from Harrisburg, Ark, it is said, about a week ago. The money found upon them was identified by MT. Lack, who declared it part of the identical currency taken from the bank.
 It is believed this the first job of the youthful burglars, as they appeared amateurish about their work, although they showed discretion in taking ony currency and leaving silver.

dations were extended and did seri- ous damage in areas which before had been only slightly affected. Army worm, leaf worm, or cotton caterpillar, was widely prevalent, but most serious damage questioned by those who claim destruction of foliage is beneficial on account of lateness of the crop.
 General Comment-Aside from the boil weevil activity the date of killing frost is the most important thing in connection with the crop prospect. At least 50 per cent of the crop now seems to be reason ably safe but the remainder is handicapped by lateness. A light frost might be an advantage.
 The following questionnaire sent out to correspondents elicited the answers set oppoiste the inquiries
 Was the weather during the last So days generally favorable or un- favorable?
 Favorable 474, unafavorable 2S0.
 If boil weevil has appeared in your county, is damage little or great?
 Great 237, serious or considerable 67, little 14S.
 Compared with last year, is the prospect better, about the same, or poorer?
 , Better 167, about the same 128, and poorer 459.
 Has picking become general iil your county?
 Yes PFC no ATS.
 Chief complaints?
