[Wabashaw (Wabashaw county, Herald, July 81
The barley has commenced to turn and
will soon be ready for the reaper. It is re-
ported that harvesters commenced cutting q

Tuesday.
Sank Rapids Benton county Sentinel, July s. ]
Fears were entertained that the late great
storms had done damage to the crops, but
this was soon allayed. True, large amount
of wheat was Frustrated, but in few hours
it stood erect as ever. m u.

8: The crops are generally looking we'll
Notwithstanding the frequent rains aud
blows, but the extreme heat and moisture if
continued much longer will seriously dam
age wheat.
Faribault Republican, July 81
AS usual at this season of the
year, when the wheat is heading,
there are many opinions expuss-
ed as to the condition and prospects of the
crop, and these opinions vary considerably.
No two persons agree in their statements.
We have taken pains to learn the true con-
dition, and from what we have seen and
heard conclude that the prospects now are
favorable for very fair yield. The grain,
especially on the prairies, does not stand as
thick on the ground as in some previous
years, but it stands up we'll and is heading
out nicely. The late wind and rain storms
have lodged wheat in some localities where
the straw is of rank growth, but we. do not
think this is general. The fields in the i'm
mediate vicinity of Faribault are looking re-
markably we'll.
lDelano Wright county,, Eagle, July 10.l
Late storms have on many places blown
down and tangled up grain, otherwise the
prospect for bountiful crop
of number one wheat in this neighborhood,
and in the county generally, is yet good.
Jordan (Scott county,, Advocate, July TO-.
Speaking of the late heavy storm 10 the
)crops the damage is not so heavy as ct first
anticipated. Wheat and corn were badly
down, but except on low ground it has
mostly raised up again.
list Cloud Stevens County,, Times July 81
The condition of the crops in this county
at the present writing is decidedly good.
Some little fear was entertained that Sun
days storm had inflicted serious damage,
but this has been entirely dispelled by ac-
counts from the country. The grain which
was Frustrated has Strengthened up, and is
now erect and looking finely. With the ex-
ception of a small strip damaged by hail,
the prospect never was more fattering for
an immense crop. Should the weather now
continue favorable, the yield Will be a glori-
GUS one. ,"a ..; f,a

The heavy rains of the past few days do
not seem to have injured the crops much in
this section, and the prospects for a good
crop is excellent.
Washington Mobiles county, advance, July 1911
What with the storms, the murky weather
and the grasshoppers, the outlook for the
wheat crop is decidedly bad. Many farmers
in this vicinity say the wheat crop is gone
past recovery.
Mankato blue Earth county Union, July H.
The farmers say up to this date wheat is
all right.
