Crops are in a Better Con.
 ditien All Over the State

Little Rock, June T.-(SpeciaD - during the past week and temperatures were about 3 degrees above normal The nights were a little cool but there was an abundance of sunshine and day temperatures were accordingly high The weather was favorable for farm work and for growth of crops except in the west where the soil is becoming too dry for all crops except cotton,
 Cotton made very good to excellent pl ogress in all portions of the state The crop is late, but the plants are of good color and growing rapidly. Im- provement was noted in the reports from nearly all correspondents and the crop is now reported in fair to very good condition, the average being sat isfactory. Cultivation continued all week, but the crops are still grassy in many places.
 Corn made very good progress except in some western sections and is now good to very good. The weather was favorable for wheat and oat harvest and this week is we'll along, All other crops made good to excellent progress except in some western portions where it is becoming too dry The potato crop is said to have been cut short in the Fort Smith district on account of drouth, but potatoes and truck are ex- cellent in most places.

STILL IS TIME TO PLANT
 FEED CROPS IN ARKANSAS
MT. COttrelI Urges This Action With Nationwide Shortage in
 Prospect,

Little Rock, June 17-Now that the cotton crop is in good condition as a result of recent favorable weather, H. M. Cottrell, agriculturist of the Ark Iansas Profitable Farming Bureau of the Little Rock Board of Commerce, urges Arkansas farmers to turn their attention to feed crops.
 Reports that we have received from various parts of the state indi- cate that in most sections the cotton crop is in pretty good shape" said Mr. Cottrell. Therefore we are urging that Arkansas farmers take advantage of the opportunity to devote some at tention to feed crops.
 Reports coming to this office indi- cate that the feed crop is going to be short all over the United States, AS a result Arkansas farmers will be un- able to depend upon getting feed stuffs from other states. Even if they can get the feed it is certain that prices will be so high that no farmer can af- ford to pay them It will be highly profitable for every farmer to be sure that he has enough feed for his horses. mules and other stock.
 AS to feed crops that can be planted this late in the season, MT. Cottrell cell
 June corn is pretty certain to make crop. In fact, the farmer has a good chance to get crop from any variety of yellow-9O-day corn.
 "A bushel of sorghum seed to the acre, sown broadcast, will yield from three to five tons of hay an acre on fair land On damp, rich land it will yield more, It is true that sorghum makes second-class hay, but it is in- finitely better than none, and it has the virtue of producing large yields.
 There still is plenty of time to raise @ good crop of Spanish peanuts. The tops and nuts when icured together make hay that is better than the very best alfalfa.
 There still is time to get a good hay crop from soy beans. Sudan grass will make good hay in western Arkansas. In eastern Arkansas sor- ghum probably is better.
 "There is world of time in which to raise good crop of sweet potatoes with which to fatten hogs and increase the milk yields of dairy cows. Dr H.A, Morgan, director of the Tennessee FIX pertinent Station often has referred to sweet potatoes as the poor mans silo.''

LITTLE RIVER COUNTY
 IS Ik QUARANTINE
Nine Counties in Arkansas is in Tick Quarantine; Cannot Ship
 Cattle,

Washington, June 17.-In accordance with an order signed by the acting secretary of agriculture, a federal quarantine against the cattle fever tick will be placed July 1, 1920, on Clark, Cleveland, Columbia, Howard, Little River, Pike, Saline, Sevier, Union counties, and part of Pulaski county in Arkansas.
 A part of Pulaski county affected lies south and west of line beginning at point where the Chicago, Rock Is- land and Pacific railroad intersects the boundary line between Perry and Pulaski counties, thence following the railway in a southern direction.
 The counties and portions of coun- ties above named were released from and 1919, with the understanding that the cattle owners and county officials would continue to cooperate in com pleting the "moping up" work and eliminating ticks from certain prem ises or areas held under local quar- antine. It appears, however, they have failed to comply with the agree ment and ticks have multiplied until they now constitute a menace to other counties in the state as vol as to tick free area in other states.
 All other released counties in Ar kansas are doing satisfactory mop ing up" and it is believed that no other replacement of quarantine will be found necessary in that state
 The placing of the quarantine means that interstate movements of cattle from these areas may be made only in accordance with the regulations of the secretary of agriculture to proven. the spread of cattle fever ticks, whica is carried by the ticks.
