Corn Has Been Planted

The following bulletin has been issued
by the Nebraska section Of the United
States Climate and Crop Service:
The last week has been dry, with nearly
normal temperature. The daily mean
temperature averaged 1 degree above nor
NAL In eastern counties and 2 degrees be-
low in western. Frosts we're general the
first days OF the week.
The precipitation Of the last week was
below normal in southern counties and
above normal in northern. Heavy snow
occurred quite generally the first part OF
the week In western counties.
The high wind Of the last week was
very unfavorable for the growth Of vegeta-
ton. The soil was dry and seed was blown
out Of the ground in some fields. while
In other fields the grain was covered with
dirt. Winter wheat has continued TO
deteriorate in condition in most parts Of
the state. In some southern counties consid-
cradle damage has been done and the crop
will be very light under the most favorable
conditions for the rest Of the season. In
most counties, however, generous rain
soon would place the crop in good condl-
ton. Oats are a poor stand generally.
The last week was especially unfavorable
for this crop; besides the damage from
wind and dust the frost in central and
northern counties did some damage to
oats. Grass and small grain have grown
slowly, but the conditions we're much i'm
proved In the counties north OF the Platte
river by the generous rain on the 25th. A
little corn has been planted. Cherrr, plum
and apple trees are in bloom. Very little
damage to fruit by the frost has been re-
ported. Peach trees are blossoming but
