CROPS ARE IMPROVING
Reports from Over the State Indicate
 That Crops are Better.

Little Rock, July 16,-(SpeciaD-All reports received by agricultural agen- cies of the state indicate very grati- flying improvement in crop conditions during the last few weeks. The crop was several weeks late on account of the unfavcrable spring weather, but this is being rapidly overcome by the hot days and nights and the seasonable rains of last month. As usual, it ap- pears that there has been more alarm over the prospect than was justified, and that the state will produce an ex- cellent crop of all it's staples, with the possible exception of epaches which were practically ruined by the l ast frosts.

NOMINEES ARE TO MEET
 .f :. PRESIDENT WILSCN
Cox and Roosevelt Will Confer With .F President Wilson on the s.r Campaign.

. Washington, July 13. - President Wilson will meet Gov. James NJ, Cox and Franklin D. Roosevelt, Democrat .ic presidential and vice presidential nominees Sunday.
 '- The conference will be held at the White House to discuss plans for a gigorous campaign. It was arranged today by Governor Cox, wh5 called at the White House on the telephone from Columbus to ascertain what day within the next week. would be most suitable for a meeting. The message was conveyed to MT, Wilson and the answer went forward speedily that MT, Wilson would be delighted to see the governor and MT Roosevelt Sunday morning at 10:3O o'clock. It was said the president considered Sunday more suitable as it would enable the gover- nor to come here and returnsfn time to keep engagements with party leaders Monday.
 Party leaders declared today there was no foundation for statements that the president and Governor Cox were "far apart on the League or Nations. They said it was natural that the governor should desire to exchange views with the president on this and many other questions before begin ming work on his speech of acceptance.
 While the president plans to remain in Washington all summer, his friends say that he can be depended upon to lend his influence to Governor Cox's campaign in statements and letters, The president has obtained much first hand information as to the preliminary campaign fight from men on whom he often has relied, and has devoted much time to newspaper reading.
 The governor, however, intimated in Dayton last week that he expected to confer with the president on the Lea igue of Nations issue before preparing his official notification speech.
 Takes Dig at Harding.
 His attention being called to a state ment by Senator Harding that his speech of acceptance would be short in order that everybody would read it, Governor Cox replied:
 T don't think that is the point. We have a platform that you can talk l lot about
 William Green, international secre- 1 tary-treasurer of the United Mine Workers of America, was one of the governors callers this afternoon. The governor said that MT, Greens call
 was only to extend congratulations. Another caller was John Hennelly of
 New York, a member of Tammany Hall and neighbor of Charles Mur-
 phy. MT. Hennelly said Tammany is
 strong for Governor Cox.

DRILLING STOPS, TO
 PUMP PsHUNTER WE'LL
t@s<. 70 Estimated that the Production will Be Between 5O". and :. 200 Barrels Day. @t.

Stephens, July 14-Oil men wore long faces this morning when, aft CT Hunter well was drilled through cap rock and on for 32'inches, no oil gushed forth. . Instead of regular oil sands the bit went through sha@e land drilling operations were stopped. This afternoon the drill crew. was re- moving the drill stem and tomorrow fthe well will be baled again
 Superintendent Lowe tonight said it is probable, the we'll will be drilled deeper, His first plan is to bail out, and sec what he has and to drill deeper if that is then considered the best plan.
 Although disappointed because no great bed of oil sand was encountered, the Standard people are not discour- aged It is believed that when the we'll has been bailed out and swabbed again the flow of oil will be greater than it was before, and may reach the top If the oil does net flow over the top it will be pumped and used as fuel oil for drilling the other wells. It is varionsly estimated that as a pump well Hunter will yield some where between 50 and 200 barrels a day.
 Drilling was resumed this morning g without damage to the we'll, The cap rock was soon pierced and the shale encountered. Some oil men were of the opinion that Hunters is an edge we'll, by which is meant well on the edge of the pool and the oil sands. In that case oil from the pool would work through the shale and can be pumped satisfactorily.
 An exodus of oil scouts and repre- scntatives of leasing companies has be- gun, however, although many of them are planning to return soon Railing and swabbing operations will probably continue all day tomorrow. Then, if oil does not flow, arrangements will be made for pumping,
 A well to supply fuel oil will be badly needed because many drilling operations are contemplated. The fue then will be on the field and can be piped 10 all the boilers The fuel used in drilling Hunter well was piped about mile from tank at spur track on the Cotton Belt
 l. Last night and today there was much speculation among the oil men grouped in the hotels as to the prob able results of drilling operations Some approved the decision to drill on through the cap rock, but the majority were opposed to it and of fefed many reasons to substantiate their theory that it is not the proper move to make.
 Most of them are keen, quick-wit ted scouts who have picked up world of information about the oi gcme in their wanderings over tn, fields of the Southwest, Mostly the, are middle aged veterans of many wild cat scare and optimists always They stand their losses with a cheer full grin and pocket their winning! with a contented smile. They rid, through lean years and fat years, ant accept these years as they come witf cheerful equanimity.
