SOUTH DAKOTA CROPS
IN GOOD CONDITION
Few Places Have Been Visited by
Hail But Otherwise Conditions
Have Been Right.
WEATHER WHAT WHEAT NEEDED
Unless Early Frosts Intervene There
Is Nothing TO Keep the Crops
From Being About n
Average.

Huron, Aug, G.-South Dakota crop
conditions are summarized as follows
In the bulletin issued from the govern
ment bureau here:
On July rs, 20 and 30 the tempera-
ture ranged from 90 TO 100 degrees in
the shade with sultry conditions part
OF the time, producing concentrated
and narrow rain and hail belts in q
number of counties and damaging n
destructive haiistorms of more or less
area are reported from about a dozen
counties. Except in the vicinity OF
the hail tracks, where the rain was
generally heavy, the showers were fair
to good and scattered. The soil, how
ever, was amply moist, generally from
the preceding week.
With the exception that it was a lit
tie too warm for small grain, causing
the more advanced to ripen too fast,
the weather was favorable for ming
and growth of wheat and oats. Con-
siderable improvement is noticed IN
late wheat especially. 1t appears from
reports that the berry is pumping
nicely and the quality in most locali-
ties will be good.
Barley harvest is nearly completed
in the central and southern counties.
Early wheat harvest is becoming gen
eral in the same sections, and in the
most southern counties is far adj
vanced. Barley appears 10 be a IAN %
good crop of good quality. What is
uneven, some very good, some fair ana
some poor, but there appears to be a
general impression that the quality OF
the berry will be good.
Unless frosts are unusually early,
with otherwise favorable weather corn
promises a good crop. Millet has made
good growth and is quite generally re-
ported a heavy stand; considerable
has been cut. Native grass has M
proved very much, haying Ia being
pushed and the quality and yield very
good. Along the river flats it is the
heaviest for years.
Potatoes have done well and prom
Use a very good croop.

BUT FEW CHANGES ARE MADE
Board of Equalization Finds the
Figures About Right.

Pierre, Aug. 9.-ln the valuation OF
lands the state board of equalization
has made but little change from the
valuations of last year, and the thirty
three counties were left just as re.
turned by the assessors. The greatest
reduction made from the returns was
in Stanley, which was reduced 40 per
cent. from II return Of S4.2j per acre;
while the greatest raise was made in
Grant, which was raised 80 per cent
from the return of 1925 per acre. The
highest assessment per acre for any
county is in Lawrence, which is placed
at Sl3.i7 per acre, which Is on account
of the mining claims which came in
under the heading of real estate. The
lowest price placed on any lands as
sesssed Is $l.sS per acre in Nowlin.
