DIES MONIES, June l3.-The weather
crop bulletin just issued says: Warm,
growing weather prevailed during the
past week. The average daily temper
ature was about two deg. above normal.
The rain fall was generally light until
Sunday, on which day heavy showers
passed through the central districts
from southwest to northeast, giving
ample rainfall for present needs to at
least three -fourths of the state. In
some localities the showers were phe-
nomenally large and possibly occasioned
some damage to crops by washing and
covering, but the rains on the whole
have been highly beneficial to all crops.
