Average of Iowa Conditions.
| Special to Times Republican.
Humboldt, July 10.-The loss in
Humboldt county by rains will amount
TO thousands upon thousands of dol
lars. Small grain had already been
badly lodged so that much would have
been lost. Thet ground is so soft that
i, will not hold the weight of the har-
Nesters, so that much will rot before
attended to. Just as soon as the farm
ers saw the condition of things they
tegan countermanding their orders for
| reapers and other machinery in large
numbers. the demand this year being
quite large. This will bS a heavy blow
To the machine men.
The corn is doing very pborly. What
is not under water or dying is not
growing, owing to the farmers being
kept out of the fields, and without cul-
| tivation corn will not grow and pro-
Guce even when on the driest land.
Rains have followed so quickly after
ere another that the farmer has hardly
been able to put in one-fourth of his
time.
Potatoes are about the only crop that
can be said to be doing we'll and even
here growth has been too rapid and
the weather so wet that now they are
beginning to decay and rot and quite a
loss may result.
The hay crop is suffering the worst
al present of any crop and very little
can be saved if such rainy weather con-
t:nues. Sunshine and lots of it is the
only thing which will save the crop.
Hay that has been cut is rotting on the
ground.

Des Moines, July 10.-The flood situ-

foot mark in Des Moines. All the levees

out if another foot was added to the

to shut the main. Nearly all the factor

great nervousness for fear of fire should
the water main be closed. Another span

feet aud is two miles wide.
