WEATHER AND CROPS
BULLETIN FOR NORTH DAKOTl
By F. q. Bronson, Director North Dakota Weather and Crop Service, Bismarck
SUMMARY.
FoR WEEK ENDING July %

The weather of the past week was favorable for harvest
ing and threshing in most sections, and the latter, which
was interrupted during the previous week by rain, was
pushed vigorously. In a few of the eastern counties show
es interrupted threshing more or less, and it progressed
slowly, on account of the damp condition of the straw. In
the northern portion of the state but little threshing has
been done, harvest being still in progress.
Wheat harvest is as a general thing completed; there's
yet some late grain! uncut, and this crop appears to be
greatly inferior to the early1sown. The yields continue
below expectations; there is an abundance of straw, but the
berry is badly shrunken and bleached, and favorable reports
OF this crop are not the rule.
Corn has greatly improved from the recent Ruins, and all
reports of same are very encouraging. Some is ripening,
however it is believed that much Of it will not reach
maturity before frost comes. ..- II"
Oats harvest is yet unfinished; It is reported generally as
being a good crop both as to yield and quality,
Flax cutting is becoming general. Some fields are very
poor. Reports from a few sections indicate considerable
improvement to the crop by recent rains. In the eastern
part of the state some will not be cut at all. ~
Haying progresses rapidly, and considerable has been
secured during the week, especially by stock raisers.
Fall blowing. has commented, but is proceeding under
difficulties, owing to the hard and dry condition of the
ground.
