Climate and Crop Bulletin.


Columbia, Mo, May 6, 19O2.-Wsrm,
showery weather has prevailed through
out the greater part of the state
during the past week and as a result
there has been a marked Improvement
in the condition of all growing crops.
The rains were Local in character
and rather poorly distributed, but ex-
cept In the extreme western and a few
Of the central aud northeastern conn
ties the total rainfall for the week
generally exceeded l inch. Very heavy
downpours, accompanied by high
winds and hail, occurred in a number
Of the central and southern counties
and in some localities corn land was
badly washed, low lands were flooded,
and much damage was done by hail to
tsdit trees, gardens and wheat. ln a
number Of the northwestern counties
the rains were too light to be of much
benefit and wheat, oats, grasses and
gardens are still suffering from drOuth
and stock water continues very scarce.
In many of the central and eastern
counties corn planting has been retar-
ded by the frequent showers, bat as a
rule only a small portion of the crop
remains to be planted in those sections.
In the western sections planting is rap
idly nearing completion. and it IS now
we'll advanced in the northern counties.
In a few localities there is complaint
that corn has not come up well, owing
to the GOODNESS of the ground and to
poor seed, but as a rule ii is coming to
good stands and cultivation has COM
menced. Cut worms are doing some
damage in few counties. Cotton is
nearly all planted in the extreme south
eastern counties and is coming up well.
In some Of the northwestern counties
wheat is still suffering from lack of
moisture but generally throughout the
northern sections 1t is improving rap
IDLY since the rains. In most of the
central and southern counties it con-
tinues in excellent condition and early
fields IN some of the southern are now
SIN the boot" Rye is also dong well
and is heading. Oats are looking
badly in some of the northern counties,
but where good rains have fallen they
are improving. In the central and
southern sections they are generally
doing well. In the northwestern GUN
ties, where the rainfall has been light,
grasses have made little progress, but
elsewhere they are now growing finely.
Flax, in the southwestern counties, is
doing well, except in portions OF Ben
ton and Vernon counties, where 1t is
reported as rather unpromlsing. In
jackson county it is needing rain.
Gardens and potatoes are growing
nicely. Melons are reported a good
stand in Dunklin county but are being
greatly damaged by bugs. Apples are
now in full bloom in the central and
northern sections and a good crop is
promised, but IN some Of the southern
. counties only a light crop is now indl-
Gated. Caterpillars are dong consId
d cradle damage to orchards in a few OF
: the central and northwestern counties.
