                   Little Rock Daily Republican, Sept. 2, 1873--Prairie County, especially the southern portion, is suffering for want of rain.
If the drought continues the crops will be cut short.  --Contributed by Frances Cooley.

                              Little Rock Daily Republican, Sept. 2, 1873--The White River Journal has been shown some specimens of corn and cotton "that
                                can't be beat."  They were grown on Grand Prairie some eight miles south of Duvals Bluff, and what makes it the more remarkable
                              is that this is the first year the land has been cultivated.  There are thousands of acres of these lands in Prairie County untilled, but
which we are glad to know are being brought info favorable notice.  --Contributed by Frances Cooley.
