The announcement that Aguinaldo

ton that the lnsurgent chieftain will

may be accomplished through Aguiu-
aldo.

venture the prediction that Aguinaldo

winter Wheat Doing We'll.
Washington, D. C.-The Weather
Bureau has issued the following sum
mary Of crop conditions:
From the Central Mississippi Valley
eastward to the middle Atlantic coast
he weather conditions of March were
generally favorable for farm work,
but in the States of the Missouri Val
ley and upper lake region they were
not so favorable.
Complaints of drouth are received
from Central and Western Texas,
while heavy rains in the South Allan
tic and East Gulf States during the
latter part of the month interfered
with farm work and caused injury by
washing prepared land.
On the Pacific coast the month was
unusually favorable in California, but
in Oregon cold rains and frequent
frosts delayed work and retarded
growth.
Preparations for planting cor are
in progress as far north as Kansas,
Missouri, Kentucky and Virginia, some
having been planted in the southern
portions of the two first-named States.
Further south a large part of the crop
has been planted.
Dat seeding is well advanced in Mis-
souri,, Kansas, Oklahoma and Arkan-
sas. and is nearly finished in Ken
lucky.
The general condition of winter
wheat is better than at the close of
February, but unfaYorable reports con-
tinue from portions of the Ohio Val
ley. In the States of the Missouri Val
ley It has wintered well, and the out
look is very promising. On the Pacific
coast the prospects for wheat are ex-
cellent. In portions of Texas wheat Is
suffering from drouth, and in the
northern counties has been seriously
