Weather Crop Bulletin.

The Weather Bureau in its report of
crop conditions for the week ended August
II, says:
In the Southern States the week has
been very unfavorable owing to con tinucd
excessive heat and general lack of rain.
In the states of the central valleys and
Northwest the week has been very favor
able for growing crops, but unfavorable
for threshing, and grain in shock and
stack has sustained further injury from
excessive moisture. In New England and
the Middle Atlantic States the week has,
upon the whole, been generally favorable
notwithstanding the excessive heat of the
early part of the week
In the Southern States corn has suffered
further injury, and only very light crop
in that section is promised. In Arkansas
the crop is reported as almost a failure
and very unfavorabe reports are received
from Oklahoma, Tennessee and other
Southern States. Corn has also deterior-
ated in Southern Missouri and Southwest
ern Nebraska, and hot winds have badly
damaged late corn in Kansas, except in
the northern counties. The general out.
look, however, is for an exceptionally fine
corn crop i'll the principal corn producing
states. Much of the crop is now practi-
'oiy S"iS ii'ih iioHt III hd SoHt
has been cut, and in Illinois cutting will
begin this week. The reports indicate
that in the central valleys corn will be safe
from frost from ten to fourteen days earl
Ter than usual, and that late corn will gen
orally be safe by from September to 10
Tobacco has been greatly injured by
worms and drouth in Kentucky and Ten
nessee. In Ohio, Pennsylvania New York
and Virginia the crop Is in good condition
and cutting is progressing favorably.
Light frosts occurred in Eastern Idaho
and heavy frost in Western Montana
Only slight injury resulted in Idaho, but
in Montana considerable damage was done
