There was little change in acreage except
in Kansas, where there liz an increase of
about 25 per cent, and in Missouri and
Illinois, where there has been consider
able falling off of the area devoted TO
winter wheat. The condition of the crop
at the time of harvest as com
pared with last year, is as follows:
Illinois, 115 per cent; Michigan, 120 per
cent; Kentucky, los per cent; Kansas,
10 per cent; Indiana, 125 per cent; Ohio,
125 per cent; Missouri, $50 per cent.
Average yield per acre: Illinois, 10 bush-
els; Michigon, 10 bushels; Kentucky,
los bushels; Kansas, 20 bushels; Indiana,

PRAYING FOR MORE RAIN
All Through the Northwest Heavy Rains are
Needed.

Needed
ST. PAUL, Juue 29-The cIop pros
poets ars less favorable today than they
were a week ago, owing to the lack of
moisture and dry hot wines, that have
held sway across portions of northern
Dakota within the past few days. Ad-
vices received from all parts of the
northwest indicate there will be consid-
erably less than an average yield of
wheat. The farmers in many sections,
and especially in the central and
southern parts of Dakota are again
crying out for more rain, for the amount
of moisture that has fallen during the
past week has not been great and has
come chiefly in the shape of local show
ers widely scattered and very timid in
its area. So far as this weather is con-
cerned early sown wheat is now too far
advanced to be benefited to any
extent by rainfall but grain
late sown Thich com prises very large
proportion of the acreage and would be
vastly helped by rain. IL northern Min
nesota the crop looks better than in
northern Dakota. While the wheat fields
in southern portions of the Rel iver
valley are not looking very well as rule.
They seem to be in a very fair condition
in the northern section on both sides OF
the river. There has been more rain
at the north than lower down.
A feature of the situation is the fact that
farmers here and there are blowing up
the land for sum mer fallow or are cutting
the grain and using it for fodder. The
corn crop in southern Minnesota is com
ing on finely. The wheat outlook, in
that section is not materially changed.
The grain in most southern counties is
looking very well. The hay crop through
out the entire northwest is very unprom-
ising.

Annie Weiss Was FIRST Betrayed Murdered

formerly guard at the Jefferson city
penitentiary, has been arrested on sus-
picion of being connected with the MUIR
der OF Annie Weiss. Bolton was released
this evening the police having satisfied
themselves of his innocence. Frederick
Buehrie the uncle of the dead girl, claims
to believe that a sporting man in Jeffer-
son City was the girls betrayer.
1t is learned that the girl before leav-
ing the house of her sister burned all
her letters and told her sister in case she
did not return to divide her effects
among the family. The police are now
proceeding on the belief that the muir
derer was man employ ed to do the job
or that he was engaged to arrange for
criminal operation on her. dispatch
from Jefferson City says the man zwhom
her uncle thinks was the girls betrayer,
protests his innocence and pro misses to
make things warm for his accusers.
