SPRING WHEAT SPOTTED.
In Parts of the Northwest 1t Does Well
and Elsewhere Not.

WASHINGTON b e., July 2S.-The
weather bureaus weekly summary of crop
conditions says: The temperature during
the week ending July u in the districts
east OF the Rocky mountains has been ia
Vorabie- except in New England where it
mas been too cool, but the need of rain is
being quite generally felt in the Central
valleys and the Southern states. Destruc-
tive local storms Occurred in Minnesota.
Missouri and in the Northern and Middle
Atlantic states. In California the week
was abnorna1ly cool but otherwise favor
able.
Over the northern portion of the corn
belt the corn crop has made good progress,
and elsewhere fair advancement is report
ed. but 1T IS IN general need of rain in the
Central and Southern portions of the prin-
cipal corn states. While no serious injury
has yet resulted from drought the crop is
homa- and Missouri
Some winter wheat remains to be har-
vested in the north portion of the Middle
Atlantic states and the lake region. While
light yields are generally indicated. the
crop has been secured and is being thresh-
ed under exceptionally favorable eondi-
lions, that in shocks and stack having
wholly escaped injury from moisture,
which was quite Widespread in the pre-
viouS year.
The condition of spring wheat continues
unfayorable, especially over the northern
improvement, however, in the crop on fall
plowed lands in aNouthern Minnesota IS
reported. but the late sown is poor and
rust IS prevalent in Southern Minnesota
and South Dakota. IN North Dakota the
heads are filing fairly well, but a poor
crop is indicated and IT'S condition in Ne
braska is less favorable. Spring wheat is
ripening rapidly in the. Dakotas. In Mon
tana and Washington 1t is filing well
Oats harvest progressed rapidly and ia
vorably In Iowa the results are favorable.
Rust is reported from Wisconsin, Southern
Minnesota. and South Dakota.
The apple crop Is somewhat more prom
Using in the Middle, atlantic states. upper
Ohio valley and Illinois, and continues ia
vorable in Michigan, Iowa and Southern
Kansas. In New England and New York
the prospect is for less than an average
yield. In Missouri apples have suffered
considerably from wind and hailstorms.

CORN FUTURES ARE STRONG
IN LOCAL GRAIN MARKET.
WHEAT DECLINES AFTER
EARLY BUYING.
Effect of Bullish Crop News Is
Offset by a Lack of Outside
Demand.

Efforts to advance the wheat market on
the strength of domestic crop news were
again unavailing. Though there was good
buying early in the session and though ST.
Louis held UP better than other important
centers, there was not enough of the real
sinews of speculative war in the shape OF
outside buying orders and foreign demand
Tor immediate export. Liverpool and other
European markets showed little strength
and the %clearances were not above the av-
erage. While it was taken for granted that
the recent unreasonable weather had caused
some damage. there were many traders VINO
did not believe that the injury would be
sufncient TO cause a material change in the
tone of the Government crop report which
will be issued at noon Monday. Selling by
Armour was a speculative factor in the
markets decline toward the close OF the
session.
July wheat opened &c of. and sold at:
s7 SC. $685. ssg,s. s7s a.; s''' sss. s &c. s!sas:ss.
July corn was again a strong spot. Wealth
er conditions were reported as generally
Unfavorable for planting and crop reports
We're bullish. Receipts were again moder-
ate and the speculative situation was great
ly strengthened by an excellent cash and
export demand.
