oed ones, are beginning to show the effects of the dry weather
that has prevailed the past three weeks, and there is no doubt
that some damage has already been done, and unless heavy
rain falls soon, the effect will be serious.
Wheat is turning yellow in places and getting very weedy.
it is very short, and it is probable that all straw will be short
this season.
Oats are beginning to suffer from the drouth, while rye
and barley seem to be holding their own, but would be
greatly benefited by rain.
Early flax still continues in good condition, but that sown
late has not come up yet, and will not, until rain enough to
terminate the seed falls.
Corn continues backward in all sections; it is large enough
to cultivate in the extreme southern portion, but in the
central and northern portions it has made but little growth.
The drouth is having a serious effect on the grass and
prospective nay crop; it has fallen off to a great extent dur
ing the past two weeks, as in many places the prairie grass
is short and fast drying up.
One hail storm, doing little or no damage is reported.
Grasshoppers are said to be doing considerable damage In
the northwestern part of Cass county.
