Little Rock.-The deterioration in
the condition of the cotton crop.
which so often occurs in August,
happily did not take place in Arkan-
sas, as it did in most of the cotton
producing states, according to the re-
port issued by Charles S. Bouton.
Field Agent of the Bureau of Crop
Estimates, and Jim G.. Ferguson,
State Commissioner of Agriculture.
1t is true that there has been de-
terioration in some counties, mainly
in the hill sections of central western
Arkansas, in independence and Jacl.
son counties, and in the stiff prairie
soils Of Arkasas, Prairie and Phil
lips counties, but in seventeen coun-
ties Of North and Northeast Arkan-
sas, including Crittenden county, and
I'm the southern tier Of countless es-
specially in Lafayette. Little River
and Columbia, the reports show
marked improvement. The other
counties have either held their own
or made slight improvement.
Commenting further on conditions.
Mr.. Bouton says: During August
we made a very careful investigation
of the cotton crop in the state, and
received very full reports from AL
but one county in The state. The
tone was generally optimistic in
comparison with previous reports.
Heavy fruiting is generally remark
cd. Less is said about poor stands
but the lateness of the crop is still
mentioned. The date of the first
killing frost seems now to he the
most prominent factor in determin,
ing the size of the crop.
The condition CURE of IS indicates
a yield per acre of lint cotton of 1863
pounds, eleven pounds more than the
final figure of last year, and forecasts
total production for the state Of
955l000 bales. This will be greater
or less according as conditions az

for the balance of the season.
In regard to diseases and insect
careful analysis shows no re-
port Of damage by boil weevil in the
north half of the state except IN
Cleburne and Pulaski counties. In
Eastern Arkansas there was slight
complaint from Lee and Phillips
counties, while in Southern Arkansas
there was some complaint from
Hampstead. Lafayette, Pike, Clark
Union, Desha.. Drew and Chicot, anil
serious complaint from Nevada and
Ouachita.
Twelve counties reported army
worm, but at the date this report
covers, viz: August rs, they had
done very little damage.
Rust and blight were reported in
only FIVE counties, and cannot at
present be regarded as serious. Shed
ding. which usually follows tho
breaking Of dry spell, was reported
in twenty-three counties. or froT
nearly all sections of the state.
Shortage OF labor is feared in some
sections. especially in those counties
with the largest towns and cities.
