CROPS IN SOUTH DAKOTA.
Weather Has Been Favorable for Un-
interrupted Field Work.

interrupted Field Work.
The latest bulletin of the South Da-
kota section of the climate and crop
service says:
The weather during the week was
generally fair and very favorable for
rapid and uninterrupted field work,
and except in some scattered and
limited localities, where some 1owland
was too wet to work because of rains
Of the preceding week, the soil was in
very favorable condition for seeding
and for the preparation of ground for
corn. The nights were cool. There
was a heavy frost Saturday morning
over the middle and northern counties.
but no damage is reported.
The sowing of wheat is practically
completed in the southern and rapidly
nearing completion in the northern
portion of the state, and oat, speltz,
barley, and spring rye seeding was
very favorably advanced. Early sown
wheat is up in the middle and south
ern counties and it is terminating well
elsewhere, and an even and satisfac-
tory stand Is reported generally. Like
favorable conditions prevail with the
earliest sown oats, speltz, and spring
rye.
Although spring sown grain has ger
minated slowly, because of cool nights,
ii is making strong root.
Winter rye continues in thrifty con-
dition generally and shows very good
stand, and alfalfa Is Going nicely.
Potato planting and gardening pro-
crossed rapidly.
Prairie grass has made fairly good
progress and now affords considerable
pasturage, and the condition of range
live stock is steadily improving. Grass
would be benefited by warmer weather.
Trees and shrubbery are coming in
to leaf generally.
The week closed with the prospect
for the early completion OF small grain
seeding, prompt and even termination
of the late sown and healthy progress
of the early sown, very gratifying, and.
with THO preparation of ground for
corn very favorably advanced.
