WEATHER REPORT
CENTRAL STATION,
Des Moines, Iowa, july IA, 1896. !

The past week vas cool aud dry
The daily aYeraga temperature was
about degrees below normal and the
rainfall barely exceeded q trace in any
part Of the state. The days were gsner-
ally bright and warm, but the nights
were cool.
1T was ideal harvest weather. Hay is
generally well secured; the winter
grain crops are in stack or threshed;
barley is about all cut III the southern
and central Districts the oats harvest
is in progress in all sections, the ripen.
ing being fastened by rust. A.
All reports show extensive damage
to oats by rust and lodging, and in the
southern and Central districts the
prospective yield will scarcely repay
the harvesting of large percentage OF
the area planted. ihe northern dis
tricts suffered least damage from that
cause, but the yield will be cut short in
all sections.
Spring wheat has been materially in
jured by rust, but the condition of that
crop is much better thap that of oats.
Corn has made steady advancement
in all districts and its condition is now
well up to the normal.
Rain is needed in moderate quapti-
ties for the pastures, potatoes, corn,
and the minor crops, though no
material damage has yet resulted from
the dry weather of tho past ten days,
