Corn in Need of Cultivation-Trans-
planting of Tobacco Nearing
Completion.

Washington, June S.-The weather bu-
lions is as follows:
While too cool for best results in pOr-
lions of the lake region and III the Mis-
souri, valley and northern Rocky noun
tain districts, with excessive moisture
and lack OF sunshine in the central Mis-
sissippi and lower Missouri valleys, the
week, as a whole, has been very favor
able in the districts east of the Rocky
mountains. Drought in the south At
lantic and east gulf states has been very
generally relieved.
over the western portions Of the corn
belt the growth of corn has been checked
by lack of warmth and sunshine and ii is
much in need of cultivation, while in the
central and eastern districts planting
and replanting have been delayed by
rain.
Winter wheat has suffered somewht'
from heavy rains in portions OF OKLA
homa and Missouri; elsewhere, this crop
has advanced favorahly, but the outlook
over the eastern portion of the winter
wheat belt continues unpromlaing, al
though more or less improved in the
Ohio valley and middle Atlantic states.
With the exception of some weedy
fields In South Dakota spring wheat is
n very promising condition in all dis
tricts,
Oats have made vigorous growth
throughout the central valleys and mid
die Atlantic states, and a general i'm
provement in the condition of this crop
is indicated in nearly all districts Seed
ing is now practically finished in the eX-
IRENE northern sections and harvesting
continues in the southern states,
In the extreme northern states there
is an encouraging outlook for apples but
in the central Mississippi and Ohio val
lcys and middle Atlantic states, the pros
meets appear to be somewhat impaired
by extensive dropping. In the south
arn states a good crop Of peaches is in
