During the past week there has been
moderate shifting of condition of the
growing winter wheat crop, some i'm
provement here and some deterioration
there, and on the whole the condition
has been barely maintained. Generally
warmer weather is considered favcr-
able Rains in Texas, Oklahoma,
kansas and Nebraska were liberal. |
but helpful. Warm rains are becoming
needful in the rest of the winter wheat |
belt. The complaint of deterioration in |
southern Illinois, southern Missouri |
southwestern Indiana and western |
kentucky is pronounced. The plant has |
changed from rich green color 10 n |
slckly yellow, and many of the lower |
leaves are dying. But the extent OF de- |
terioration is indefinite, and is prospnc-
tive rather than nncitfvn o.. ,,.,,,.. -
