REVIEW OF CROP CONDITIONS,

Washington, Aprir 27.-The weather bu- reau in it's review of crop conditions for the week ending April 26, says: Except in the states of the Missouri and Upper Mississippi valley, where there has been too much rain the week ending April 26 has been the most favorable of the season for farming operations. Wheat seeding is about comple ed over the southern por- ton of the spring wheat region and is making favorable progress in the pako- tas, where seeding has as yet been con- fined largely to uplands. The early soWn is coming up in Minnesota and Nebras- ka and is making vigorous growth in Iowa. Winter wheat shows improvement in Indiana and Missouri, and Is in fairly promising condition in Ohio In the At lantic coast and southern states the con- dition of the crop is generally promising. In Texas wheat needs q warm raLn. Southward of the northern boundaries of North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas and Oklahoma corn planting is mostly fin ished; much has been planted in Ken lucky and Kansas and good progress has been made in Missouri. Planting has gun in Southeastern Nebraska and Southrn Illinois. Tn the southern states the early planted is being cultivated, the crop being reported clean and growing corn has suffered from cool nights, some injury from frost being reported from Virginia. Corn planting Is nearing eom- pletion in Tennessee and over the north ern portions of Texas, Mississippi, Ala bama and Georgia and continues in Mis- souri. Some injury has resulted from frost in South Carolina and Mississippi and the crop has been unfavorably affect ed by cool weather in Texas and Georgia.
