For the Week Ending Last Monday

The past week has been consld-
erab!y cooler than the normal a.
long the eastern border and in the
southern counties; elsewhere the
temperature has been very close
to the normal. Practically no
rain has fallen IN the southeastern
counties, but frequent and heavy
rains with hail have been feat
ure in Weld, Logan and Chaffee
counties, over parts of the Divide,
and the south central counties, in
cludlng San Luis Park. On the
western slope the showers have
been generally light. The wealth
er conditions have been favorable
to crops except IN the districts
visited by heavy precipitation.
Grain and alfalfa have been lodg-
ed by the heavy rains, and hail
has seriously damaged wheat and
potatoes in parts OF Welde county
and over small areas in other
parts ofthe eastern slope. In Rio
Grande county hail was very de-
structive to several thousand acres
of wheat. Some damage to pears
and apples from blight is reported.
Small fruits, especially raspber
ries, are plentiful, hut plums and
apricOts are scarce.
