The week just closed averaged cooler thar
usual throughout the State but good show
while the nights have been rather too cool
for best results the conditions on the whole
have been fairly favorable for growing
Of the northern and western counties. Very
heavy rains have fallen in some localities.
few correspondents in the southwestern
counties report a total for the week of from
three to over four inches.
Severe wind ard hail storms have dono
much damage to corn. wheat. oats and fruit
I'm a number Of the western and northern
counties The most destructive storms &C
CURED I'm Dade. Greene. Holt and Atchison.
Corn has been somewhat retarded by cool
nights, but Is generally doing finely except
in some of the southeastern counties. where
continued rains have prevented cultivation
and where some fields have been drowned
out.
Wheat harvest Is nearing completion in
the central and southern sections and Is
in progress in the northern counties. In
some OF the southeastern counties the fields
have continued too Wet for binders, ard
wheat that has been cut is sproGting III
shock. Elsewhere the crop has generally
been harvested in good condition Thrashing
has commenced in the southern counties.
Oats have been badly lodged in some To-
calities by high winds and heavy rains
and In a few counties there is complaint II
rust, but In general the crop continues as
promising as previously reported Harvest
Is now In progress in the southern counties
Medows continue to improve and the hay
crop VIII be somewhat better than was ex-
pected few weeks ago. Flax in the south
western counties is generally in good con-
dition and Is beginning TO ripen
Cotton in the southeastern counties has
been damaged by excessive rains and lack
of cultivation. and in Dunklin County 1t Is
being injured by lice.
Apples and peaches are still falling to a
considerable extent. and In some Of the
western and northern counties many have
been blown or by high winds In a few Of
the southeastern counties early peaches are
rottihg. Estimates of the probable yield
vary greatly. Some correspondents report
a full crop, others a half CROP while in
some localities there will be none. In CEN
eral both crops will be light, and in many
counties apples will be of poor quality
