State Weather-Crop Report.
SEATTLE, May l.

SEATTLE, May IL, 1897.
The last week was somewhat dispirit-
ing as compared with the remarkably
favorable weather of April, but, really,
farmers have no occasion to grumble. 1t
was cool week, with chilling winds and
little sunshine, except the first and last
days, but there were no damaging effects.
Heavy rains on the 9th and 9th, with
thunderstorms in the eastern section,
and rain also on the 9th, were followed
by cloudy skies and cold southwest
winds.
Vegetables made little progress, but
the weather was splendid for wheat, oats
and other small grains and grass. Win.
ter wheat is very thrifty, oats are eight
inches high or more in some localities,
and the hay crop is great. Pastures are
bountiful. Red clover is reported to be
very heavy. Potatoes are all planted,
except on wettest lands, and much of
the crop is almost ready TO cultivate.
Apple trees are in full bloom, except
latest varieties. Plum and cherry trees
have shed fruit considerably, owing to
cold winds, but there probably an abund-
ance left yet. Hops have been some
what cut down by frost.
The rains Of the week, vhAeenot par
ticularly needed in Western Washing
ton, were invaluable in the eastern sec

suited. Wheat and grass now making
safe and steady growth. Fall wheat is

though it was somewhat frozen out in
patches, Winter varieties look fine.
Big Bend Country: Lincoln and
Douglas County 4 reports,-The past
week has been very favorable for grain.
Frost on morning of 7th, but no damage
can be seen. The first part OF the week
was excellent growing weather, although
a little dry for farming. Wednesday ey-
ening, May 5, brought the first thunder
storm OF the season, and heavy rain fol-
lowed, cooling the air. Fall wheat is
looking we'll; early sown wheat, too,
looks fine. Fall wheat has completely
covered the ground and has rich color.
Palouse Country: Whitman and Ad-

variable, but in general favorable. On
the 3rd it began warming up and on the
4th was hot, but on the 9th thunder
up, and tgrew quite cool the evening.
A general heavy rain that night made
the remainder Of the week perfect for
farm work, which was pushed all that
was possible. Rain dissolved the clods,
enabling the farmers to mash and har-
row them, so that the fields are now
very smooth. In another week seeding
will all be done. The rain was very ben
efcial to vegetables and wheat. Straw
berries OF the early variety are in full
bloom. Winter wheat is coming out
fine. Pastures never were better than
at present. Squirrels have commenced
on wheat in Adams county.

cold nights have been somewhat unfav-
.orable, but despite the cool weather veg
citation is progressing rapidly. Wheat
