Dies MONIES, Iowa.
The average temperature of
the past week was from 2 to 4
degrees below normal, and there
was less than the usual amount of
sunshine. Except in portions of
the southeast district the soil has
been thoroughly saturated by
heavy showers, from the IA to the
18th. Harvest operations have
been retarted by wet weather and
cloudiness, and in the northern
and western districts considerable
local damage resulted to hay and
small grain.
The benefits resulting from
these copious rains. however, very
greatly exceed the losses caused by
excess. Corn is steadily advan-
cling, giving promise of more than
an average yield. The pastures
are fresh and succulent as in early
June. The aftermath of the
meadows promises to recoup the
losses sustained in the hay har-
vest. And vegetation generally
is unusually green and vigorous
for the midsummer period.
The markets are abundantly
supplied with early apples; but
the winter apple crop is likely to
fall considerable short of the
promise during the blooming per
|iod.
