Newpoi , June 1.—The*. foi
lowng rei >rt is issued by the i
Lesser-Gc Iman Cotton Co., as
a result ^f recent crop in
vestigation in this territory.
Newport Wagon Territory.
—Decrease in acreage 25 per
cent. Crop ten days to two
weeks earlier. Cultivation has
been good but due to excess
ive rain f; 11 crop is now in the
grass. Stands excellent. With
favorable weather conditions
from now on, conditions will be
much above the average.
Iron Mountain,North.—D e -
crease m acreage IS per cent.
Average 7 days early. Stands
good. Plants healthy. Com
plaint of wet weather. Crop
grassey. This section of the
territory is in good shape and
has an excellent crop prospect.
Iron Mountain, South, in
cluding M. N. & A. Ry.—De
crease in acreage 21 per cent.
Average 10 days late. Com
plaint of excessive rainfall.
Crops grassy. Stands only
fair. Reduction in use of fer
tilize'!' 40 per cent. Conditions
in this territory are not up to
the average.
White River Div.—Decrease
in acreage 20 per cent. Con
flicting reports as to the ad
vancement of the crop, but
possibly a week early. Crop
getting in the grass. Some
complaint of cut-worms and
ants. Stands fair to good.
Too much rain.
Rock Island Railway includ
ing McCrory and Augusta.—
Decrease in acreage 14 per
cent. Stands except at Cotton
Plant and McCrory are good.
Plant is healthy. Crop in grass.
Complaint of too much rain.
Cotton Plant has only fair
stands and McCrory has been
damaged by hail. Conditions
in this territory are generally
above the average.
In that the heaviest decrease
in acreage has occured in por
tions of the territory where
least cotton is grown, we feel
that 18 per cent would be a
fair estimate of the average
decrease in the. . average
While cultivation has been re
tarded by excessive rainfall
and cool weather has checked
the growth of the plants we
feel that general conditions
in this territory are so far ex
ceedingly favorable and with
reasonable good weather from
now on, better than an aver
age crop can be made. With
unfavorable conditions that
Lave prevailed on the Iron
lountain South and the M. &
A Rv., we expect a below
irmal crop from that section.
)is condition is more than off
by the exceedingly fine
|prospects on the Iron Moun
iin, North and the Newport
igon Territory. Any loss

mid be covered by the gain

pared with last week.although
canners, cutters, calves and
yearlings held steady. Texas,

AFTER FIVE YEARS
Batesville Testimony Remains
Unshaken
Time is the best test of truth
Here is a Batesville story that
has stood the test of time. It
is a story with a point which
will Come strait home to many
of us.
C. Sims, printer, Batesville,
Ark., says: “Doan’s Kidney
Pills have done me a lot of
good. When I first took them
1 was suffering from kidney
trouble and they relieved me
so much that I recommended
them.”
Over five years later Mr.
Sims said: “1 have felt signs
of kidney trouble since, but
not the way that I used to be-j
fore using Doan’s Kidney Pills.)
|My old endorsement -till holds)
good and you can keep on us
ing it.”
Price 50 cents at all dealers.
Don't simply ask for a kidney
remedy—get Doan’s Kidney
Pills—the same that Mr. Sims
had. Foster-Milburn Co.,
