100 counties:
The Weekly Bulletins of the Gil
mate and Crop Service of the weather
bureau show general deterioration
of the wheat crop in the principal
wheat growing States.
In Ohio there has been general fall.
ing off in condition due to the rust
and Hessian fly. The Indiana crop
has also suffered from the same cause
In Illinois there has been some i'm
provement in early sOwn wheat, while
the late now shows up very poor.
Michigan reports widespread damage
by the ety. and the crop has fallen
off in condition generally. In Mis-
souri, damage by rust and HeSsian fly,
combined with the presence of an un-
usual amount of cheat, make the crop
as a whole "a poor prospect" In
Kansas many counties report an i'm
prOvement in condition, but greater
number report loss. Chinch bugs
have made their appearance there, and
serious damage is threatened.
In Kentucky the wheat crop has
suffered a loss in condition during the
month. The condition averages q,
while on May 1st it was 80. BY sec.
tiOnS h e following averages are
shown: Western, 62; central, Is; south
eastern, 81. 1t should be noted that
by far the highest average condition
is shown in the southeastern section
where comparatively little wheat is
grown. There is general complaint
of fly" in early wheat. Rust is also
frequently reported, but so far is con-
fined to the blades. Medium early
wheat now promises the best yield.
Late wheat is Overrun with weeds.

CORN.
Both western and southeastern sec
tiOnS report corn planting not compile
ted with close of month. In the Gen.
trail section corn is all above ground
and some is quite forward. Much re-
planting has been found necessary, due
to defective seed. The acreage COM
pared with acreage of 1893 is 90. The
condition compared with average
years is "a. The condition June 1st,
