Des Moines May 24.--The regular
weekly weather and crop bulletin was
issued today. 1t says:
The first half of the week was cool
and cloudy, with light rainfall. The
last half was mostly clear and suff1-
GENTLY warm to bring the average tenn
peratura about up to the normal. The
conditions were generally favorable for
field work, and the time has been we'll
improved.
Reports indicate that the bulk of the
corn area has been planted in the
greater part of the state. But in a few
counties, mainly in the southern dis
tricts, field work has been delayed by
wet soil, and blowing and planting OPP
erations are likely to be continued for
a week or more. In the aggregate the
acreage is unusually large. There are
numerous reports of replanting. neces-
stated by defective seed or too deep
planting Complaints of this kind, how
ever, have been heard quite frequently
IN all seasons. Cultivation of early
planted fields is in progress.
Small grain and grass are doing fair
ly well, but would be much benefited
by light showers and warmer weather.
A large acreage Of potatoes has been
planted. Reports as to the fruit crop
are mostly encouraging.

Conditions Generally Satisfactory in
the Principal Agricultural States.
Washington, May 24.-The following
is the summary Of the weekly crop
report Of the weather bureau issued to-
day: While the forepart of the week
was much too cool in the districts east
of the Mississippi river, as a whole
temperature conditions were mucn
more favorable than in the preceding
week. Generally light rainfall in the
central valleys and over most of the
southern states permitted favorable
progress of farm work, complaints Of
interruption being confined mainly to
the upper Ohio valley. Complaints of
wet soil, however, continue from por-
tons of the central Mississippi and
lower Missouri valleys. Drought con-
tinues in South Atlantic and east gulf
states and over the southern plateau
region and the need of rain is be-
ginning to be felt In central and east
ern Texas and on the north Pacific
coast. Frosts, more or less damaging.
occurred on the 10th and 18th in the
Lake region. upper Ohio valley ana
middle Atlantic states.
torn planting has advanced very
favorably except in portions OF the
central Mississippi and Ohio valleys,
where it has been prevented by wet
soil. In Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas,
planting is nearly completed, but IN
Missouri 1t is only about half finished
and much remains to be planted III the
Ohio valley, where the work has been
greitly delayed.
In the central and east gulf states
corn is generally small and backward
but has made good growth in Texas
Cut worms have proved very destruc-
tive in Kentucky, Tennessee. and por-
lions of the middle Atlantic states
Winter wheat advanced favOrably in
Nebraska, Kansas and generally IN
Missouri, but in portions of the last
named state the outlook is somewhat
less promising. Improvement is re-
ported from Illinois, Michigan and
Ohio, where, however, the condition of
the crop is very poor. In the middle
Atlantic states the crop has made sat
isfactory progress and general inn
provement is also noted. On the Pa
cific coast winter wheat sustained
slight damage from drying winds in
California, but the crop continues to
do well in Oregon and Washington.
Spring wheat seeding is practically
finished except in North Dakota, where
1t is we'll advanced and early sown IS
coming up and is stooling well. In
southern Minnesota, Montana and on
the north Pacific coast rain is needed
to terminate the late sown. The gem
eral outlook for oats in the principal
oat producing states is promising
Seeding is finished except in the ex-
IRENE northern districts and harvest is
in progress in the southern states

Country shippers have been eau
toned about sending in too many cat

either decided to take the advice this
time or did not ship freely because the

al opinion prevails that the supply OF
cattle is getting reduced ard that
there will not be more than enough for
the demand for the next sixts days.
