WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
Fine Harvesting and Haying Weather
Over the State.

The weekly crop bulletin issued by
the weather bureau follows:
The weather during the week was
generally warm and dry, except over
Garfield and adjoining counties, where
the warm weather produced frequent
heavy thundeTstoTms. Elsewhere tenn
peratures were practically normal and
precipitation was very light, clear
skies prevailing as a rule. Tie middle
and northern portions of the state re-
cefTed no rain. The heavy rains in the
south-central portion of the state re-
suited in considerable damage, locally
by washing and flooding. Generally
over the state, however. fine harvest
ing and haying weather prevailed, and
much of this work was done. Fall
grain IS being extensively harvested,
ana threShing continues more general
than last week Spring grain and oats
were ripening in many fields. The
yields of grain in nearly every in
stance were reported better and larger
than usual; arid farm wheat being
much better than was expected. The
second growth of Iucerne was general
~ nearly all put up, and good crops
were secured. The third crop of
iGcerne was making good growth.
sugar Deets and corn We're making
very fine showing. Tomatoes. pOtatbes
and green corn were in table use and
we're On the market Small fruit Is
practically all gone. The range con-
unues fresh, and furnishes fairly good
pasture, especially in the southern
portion Of the state. Stock continued
in thrifty condition. Reports concern
ing the water supply were, as d rule,
encouraging, many valleys in the
south receiving a fresh supply this
week and are as a consequence well
supplied However. the extensive
rich areas, general over Utah county.
were reported to be growing short of

tive committee See ia the fact that VIII
lam r Shcehan is 10 be in active charge
or the Democratic campaign evidence that
Judge Parker VIII be at all times in close
touch with every important feature Of tie
canvass. Mr.. Sheehan is the close per
SUnal friend Of the Democratic candidate
ard il was 10 him that the now famous
telegram about the gold standard was
sent. At the lime OF the meeting OF the
national committee many eastern Demo-
cats wanted Senator German or Mr..
Sbcchsn for Chairman Of the committee
bus IL is now claimed that the same pTaC-
teal result has been accomplished by the
selection Of the latter as chairman Of ths
executive committee and in placing the
management Of the campaign in his
hands.
The present arrangement is satisfactory
To the eastern men who ara to raise the
mercy for the campaign and who on this
account were anxious TO have an eastern
man for campaign manager.

very imperfectiy, and during the last
thirty-siX hours of his life his breath
ing was scarcely perceptible The ffut-
