The Unfavorable Conditions Of

The Recent Showers Were Timely and
Beneficial In the Counties Contiguous

Flowing and Planting Has Been
Greatly Facilitated.
Special to Times-Repub1lcan


Des Moines, May 26 The weekly
weather and crop bulletin was issued
today as follows:
Continued wet and cloudy weather

cal downpours, increased the unfavor-
able conditions of soil, and sill further
delayed corn planting ana field work.

western districts of the state. The most
cheerful reports come from the coun-
ties contiguous to the Mississippi river.
wherein the showers were timely and
beneficial, softening the clods and fa-
cilitating the work of blowing. AN
planting. In the northeast district and
portions f-the east central and south
east districts, the conditions have been
much improved by warmth and mois-
ture.
The heaviest dpwnpours of rain with
more or les damage by wind, hail and
lightning, occurred in the Missouri
river districts. This will materially
lessen the corn acreage in n consider
able portion OF the territory NlSlteu ny

termination of corn has been, general
ly, very satisfactory, with indications
of an excellent stand in all sections.
Small grain. pastures and meadows,
have made fine growth. The CHIEF
drawback is the tendency to rank
growth of the oat crop on rich soils.
The general crop situation is still!

No End to the Rain.

Humboldt, May 26.-There is no end
to the rain Hardly a day passes but
what rain comes and when 1t does
clear off it is SO humid that rain always
follows. Up to date about six inches
have fallen, about twice as much as
fell during the whole month of May last
year The farmers are at stand
still in their work, as only Very small
part of the corn has been planted and
there are little hopes of it's being put
in for some time.
There was quite a heavy wind re-
Gently, which did much damage to the
country surrounding Humboldt. AT
ERADICATE the elevator of Clark Brown
was badly wrecked and the Northwest
ern railroad tank was blown over. At
the Humboldt county poor farm the
barn was blown off it's foundation and
the wind mill blown over. Other reports
say that windmills and barns were de-
molished in large numbers turnout the
county.
