CROPS ARE DAMAGED.
officials Show That Fruit Losses viii
Be Heavy.

The recent cold weather has dam
aged Utah crops, especially fruit so
that Montana is not alone in the lossss
inflicted by this pinching reminder of
a cold season just passed. Section Di-
rector r. j. Hyatt of the local weather
bureau issued his first bulletin last
evening, calling attention to this un-
fortunate condition; although the pre-
clpitation has benefited the dry farms,
The section director says.
Warm, dry weather prevailed during
the fore part OF the week, a condition
that was very favorable on such land
as could be irrigated, pocess that was
under rapid Roadway at that time, In
such localities crops had been making
rapid growth and all vegetation was
looking well. on dry farms, however,
the ground was badly parched and veg
citation was at standstill. A decided
change in the weather occurred on the
18th, when a cold rain set in that as
the temperature fell developed into
moist snow. This storm continued for
the balance Of the week, temperatures
during the night falling to freezing
point and below throughout the Sec
ton. These conditions undoubtedly
caused great injury TO crops, especial
ly fruit, although the amount of dam
age can at present only be conjectured,
the reports OF the crop correspondents
having been mailed before the severity
OF the storm became manifest The
amount OF precipitation was consider
able. amounting In some localities to
half an inch, and this moisture VIII be
Of great benefit in watering dry farms
and replenished the stock Of water for
irrigation purposes. With the advent
OF warm, dry weather vegetation VIII

due to the increased moisture In the
ground.
Spring wheat was making rapid
growth before the storm occurred and
was looking well. Dat seeding was
nearing completion, Fall wheat was
generally poor. The crop OF lucern
will fail short as already indicated IN
last weeks bulletin. II Is now high
enough in some localities to be cut for
hay. Corn planting. IL in progress
L.ate.sown heets were needing moisture
