WEEKLY WEATHER REPORT!

The fore part of the past week was quite cold, the tenn
perature going near the frost line in most parts of the state,
and light frost is reported from quite a number of places,
but were damaging only to corn, potatoes and gardens. 1t
is not thought that any of the small grain was injured at
all, although it was expected that fax would be badly
nipped. The latter part Of the week was warm, with light
showers in most sections, and very favorable for crops of
ali kinds.
Wheat is still doing we'll. although in most sections it is
in need of rain. In some few places it is turning yellow,
and most fields are very weedy, but the late cool weather
retarded the growth of the weeds while it favored the
growth of grain, and as it now covers the ground 1T is
probable that it will soon crowd out many OF the weeds.
Wheat on tall blowing is doing better than that on spring
blowing and is not so weedy.
Oats, rye and barley are doing we'll; the latter is still
being sown, but the growth has not been as rapid as should
have been, on account of the cool weather, and most OF the
fields are behind the season.
Flax seeding is still in progress, although most of the
crop was in some time ago. That sown early is up and
doing we'll; that sown late, where not favored by heavy
showers, has not yet terminated, and will not without rain.
Corn is still behind the season; in many places it was in
jured by the recent frosts and it has been retarded by the
cool weather, but the few warm days of the past week made
a decided improvement in it. 1t is, as a general thing,
quite uneven. and in some instances that planted lately is
in advance of the earlier planted.
Grass is still doing we'll, but is in need of rain, especially
in the eastern portions, where it is making slow progress,
except on low land.
