CROP CONDITIONS.
Germ Growing WeH-Winter Wheat Nearly

Germ Growing Wen-Winter Wheat Nearly
Ready for Harvesting in Kansas.
WASHINGTON, June 6.-The weather
bureau, in its report of crop conditions
for the week ended June 3, says: The
warm weather has been beneficial to
corn, replanting of which over the
greater portion of the corn belt is
about completed and it is coming up
and doing we'll. Reports from south
ern states indicate that corn in that
section is in excellent condition. In
Nebraska the crop has grown we'll dur
ing the week, and is in excellent con-
dition.
Winter wheat is in less promising
condition in Ohio Indiana, Michigan
and Missouri, and rust is appearing in
Illinois; it is nearly ready to harvest in
Kansas and is heading in Pennsylvania
and Maryland.
Tobacco is growing nicely in the
Carolinas, and planting is progressing
favorahly in Kentucky, Virginia and
Maryland. In Ohio plants are dying
from drought.
