The Crops.

CHICAGO. June 2O.-The following crop
summary will appear in this weeks issue of
the Farmers Review:
Harvesting is in progress in portions of
Ohio and Indiana, and in large sections of
kentucky, Missouri, Kansas and Tennessee.
The grain has already been gathered. The
yield in all these states, with the exception of
Kansas promises TO be nearly up to the aver
age, and in Missouri will be above the aver
age. In Washington county, Missouri, the
report is made that the grain is threshlng out
an average of twenty-one bushels to the acre
III many fields. In Davis and Ellis counties,
Kansas, wheat is averaging eight to ten
bushels to the acre, but though short tn
quantity, promises to grade well. In South
ern illinois reports Of damage by chinch bugs
in the wheat fields still continue and in St.
Clair county the ravages have been so
serious to reduce the probable yield from
five TO seven bushels an acre. In central
Illinois the outlook for wheat continues good.
The serious drOuth threatening almost the
entire spring wheat belt has been quite gen.
orally broken by copious rains. The danger
which seemed to threaten the life of almost
the entire crop has been passed. The aver
age of the general yield in Dakota Minnesota
and Wisconsin has been lessened probably 10
per cent. by the prolongatlon of the droutb
and in portions of Minnesota caused an
almost total blight, in which the rains came
too late to revive the grain. In Beadle county
wheat was
REDUCED 10 PER CENT.
BY the drouth; in Codiugton county Is to 20
per cent; in Sphinx county, 10. In Dakota
county, Minnesota, it is reported that the dry
weather in connection with chinch bugs, re-
duced the average 80 per cent. In Olmsted
county some Of the fields are reported dead;
in Steele county there was no rain for four
weeks and the outlook for wheat was lessened
20 per cent. In Blue Earth county the wheat
is thinner and shorter than before for years.
In a few portions of Wisconsin no rains have
fallen to relieve the fields. In Iowa and Ne
braska no sensible injury to the wheat is re-
ported from the drouth, but the oat prospects
have been greatly lessened, and in seven
Iowa counties the reports Indicate that the
average has been reduced fully 25 per cent.
jefferson and MuScatine counties in Iowa are
the only ones to report this week ravages by
grasShoppers, and thus far no serious injury
has resulted from this form of insect life.
The corn outlook in the states of Minnesota,
Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Illinois and Indi-
ana is almost uniformly good. Some injury
by cutwOrms is reported from different Sec
tons, but it is not such as to affect the gen.
eral crop outlook. The fields in Minnesota,
Kansas and Iowa are reported especially
clean and promise large crop.
