US. Department of Agriculture--North Dakota section-For Week
Ending June, 70 1899.
The past week has been a very favorable one for all
crops; the fore part was cool with light rains, followed by
considerably warmer weather, which has caused a rapid
growth IN all vegetation. Some few hailstorns are re-
ported, the heaviest, and the only one said to have done any
damage being in Pembina county. The others were in
widely scattered sections, but did not amount to anything.
Wheat is making excellent growth; the cool weather has
caused it to stool we'll, and except in the lower Red River
counties, where it had been previously reported as un-
healthy, is making rapid growth, with a strong we'll rooted
plant. Oats are in good condition all over the state; flax
has not all been sown yet, but the most of it is I'M and up,
looking vigorous. Barley and rye are doing we'll; the
latter is beginning to head in some localities. Corn and
potatoes are very backward, owing the continued cool
weather and unusually heavy rains that have prevailed.
Grass is unusually thick and heavy, except in some scat
tered places, and some hay has already been put up in the
Missouri valley. Most of the grain is very weedy, espcci-
ally on old land.
