WEEKLY CROP

Wheat cutting has commenced in the extreme southern
portion, and will commence in the eastern portion this
week, but in some places the straw is SO short that it can
not be cut with a header. In some sections what wheat is
left is being cut for fodder, wfile in others it is being used
for pasturage, on account of the failure of the hay crop.
Corn and potatoes seem to be thriving in spite Of the dry
weather, and bids fair to make an average crop. Flax has
generally deteriorated the past week, and its prospects are
not as good as on the first of the month. Haying is in pro-
gress where there is any grass to cut, but it is a short crop,
even in the most favored localities.
Late grain is reported as filling we'll previous to the hot
weather of the Goth.

ing is in progress, but the yield will be very light; corn and potatoes
not doing very well. Gladstone Another dry week: corn is drying
up, and the late grain will be no better than the early, if rain does
not come soon.
STEELE-Finley-Wha little wheat is left is filling we'll; oats and
barley very poor; flax that came up late is at a standstl. Hope-Ir
oft dying or blghting; for the most part, the flax plant this season
has only the main stem, with but few or no branches: wheat still

growth will not natures: flax blossoming very short and will be a
light crop. Edmunds-Very hot and dry the latter part Of the week:
ground very dry. Medina-An vegetation in this locality is dried up;

under, or cut for fodder; some are pasturing stock on same, as grass
is dried up. Galesburg-Al crops have improved: some being
plowedu under, but what will pay for cutting, is filling wells flax doing
we'll; some barley and wheat will be cut this week, Mayvile-FiaSS
corn and minet need rain badly; cutting Of what wheat is left, will
commence this week.
