FAVORABLE FOR CROPS
WEAtH IN LAKE REGION. CENTRAL AND
UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEYS.
Also in Carolinas and Texas. Corn Planting
Under Way as Far North as
New York.

Washington, May 9.-The Weather
Bureaus summary of the crop con-
ditions of the country, issued this af-
ternoon, is as follows:
In the Lake region and in the States
of Ohio, Central and Upper Mississp-
pi Valleys, the Carolinas and Texas,
the weather conditions of the week
ending May Sth, 1899, have been gen
orally favorable to crops. Generally
favorable conditions have also contin-
ued in the middle Atlantic States and
the Missouri Valley, but in portions
of the first named district it has been
too dry, and in the latter too cool
for best results. In the Central Gulf
States the absence of rain has inten-
sifed the droughty conditions re-
ported in the preceding week ana
crops are beginning to sufc".
Drought also prevails in Florida, Cen
trail and Southern Colorado, Arizol;t
and New Mexico and rains wonld
prove beneficial in New En- gland,
while excessive rains have interrupted
farm work in Oklahoma, North Da-
kota and Minnesota. In the Rocky
Mountain and Pacific coast regions
the week has been too cool, a severe
'norther' on the second and third
causing heavy loss of caves and lambs
in Montana. Frosts in the Rocky
Mountain region were destructive 10
fruit, and while light 10 heavy frosts
occurred in New England, and por-
tons of the Middle Atlantic States
and California, the damage was not
serious.
Excellent progress has been made
with corn planting in the Middle At
lantic States, and generally in the
Central Valleys. Some corn has been
planted as far north as New York
Michigan and South Dakota. Heavy
rains have interrupted planting in
Missouri, and washed out a consider
able portion of the crop in Oklahoma.
Early corn is being cultivated as far
north as North Carolina, Tennessee
and southern portions of Missouri and
Kansas. In the East Gulf States corn
is generally in need of rain, but in
Texas the crop is well cultivated,
growing rapidly and the early planted
tasseling.
Generally the condition of winter
wheat continues to improve; it is
jointing in Illinois, Indiana and Ohio,
heading in Tennessee and North
Carolina and further South, and in
California it is beginning to ripen,
with prospects for a heavy yield in
the last named State. In Oregon win

ter wheat continues in good condition
and the crop is improving slowly in
Washington.
Spring wheat seeding has been de-
iayed in Oregon, and much remains
to be seeded in the lower Red River
Valley in both North Dakota and
Minnesota. Over the southern and
central portions of the spring wheat
region the crop is coming up to good
stands and growing well.
me seeding of oats in the more
northerly sections is about finished.
The crop is making good growth and
is in genearlly promising condition
in the Central valleys. In the Central
and West Gulf States and in South
Carolina oats are suffering for rain.
Harvesting will soon begin in Geor-
gia.
Cotton planting continues over the
northern portions of the cotton belt
and the early planted has made ia
vorable progress over the Southern
and central portions. Rain is needed
in South Carolina, Florida and Lou
isiana, while washing out by rains has
necessitated replanting in Northern
Texas. In Oklahoma planting has been
delayed by the heavy rains.
Tobacco is doing WEI in the Caro-
linas, but is needing rain in Florida.
Tobacco plants in beds are growing
well and are generally abundant in
the Ohio Valley, Midqle Atlantic and
New England, although scarce in
some sections of Virginia and Mary
land.
