CHAS. HUNT,
f. f.. SHRAUGER.

The past week was warmer than
usual, with a large excess OF rainfall
and 4 general deficiency of sunshine.
All sections We're abundantly water
ed while in portions of the southern
southeastern and eastern districts the
amount of rainfall was very heavy and
detrimental to farming interests. The
southeast district seems to have suff-
cred most in this respect, the soil be-
ing saturated throughout the season.
The Station at Keokuk reports an ex-
cess of nine inches precipitation since
January l. Under such conditions
field work has been greatly retarded
in that section.
But probably three-fourths of the
State has not as yet received an excess
of moisture. In many localities some
detriment resulted from heavy showers
which washed the soil considerably in
fields recently planted.
In all sections corn planting was
somewhat retarted by the frequent
showers; but in the north and central
districts the work is nearly completed.
Reports indicate that the seed is good
and termination is quite satisfactory.
In early planted fields the stand is
promising, and cultivation is in pro
gress. The wet weather has been gen
orally favorable for grass, wheat, oats,
rye and barley. Fruit prospects are
good.
