June comes to close in the midst of a

indicating that disturbances of this period
will develop early in the period, and con-
tinue with greater or less intensity for
several days.
In the nature Of things, June will bring
many showers and some general hard
rains, to most sections, but we d" not be,
lieve that the rain will come up t" the
average, taking the country as whole.
This means. of course, that some sections
will have shortage of moisture before
the close of the month. We believe that
such sections will be in the north, to
northwestern parts of the country. AS
to the seasonal conditions during the
remainder of the summer, we will say
that Mars period dominates the last half
of July, and that the character of rain
fall and weather prevailing as we enter
this Mars period may be expected general
ly through July and August. We fear
that there will be a shortage of moisture

CROP REPORT.

The Weather Bureaus weekly summary
of crop conditions is as follows:
with the exception of the Northern
Rocky Mountain region and Upper Mis-
souri, and Upper Mississippi valleys. where
the early part of the week was too cool,
the temperature of the week ended May
80 was favorable in all districts, especially
to The east ward of the Mississippi River
and in the West Gulf States. Oklahoma
and portions of Iowa Missouri, Visor
sin, Ohio, and Pennsylvania have suf
fered to some extent from excessive mols-
ture, while drought continues over large
part of the South Atlantic and East Gulf
States. Well disturbed and beneficial
rains fell over the greater part of Texas
and the central Rocky Mountain slope.
Light frosts occurred in Wisconsin, and
heavy and damaging frests in Montana,
Idaho, and in the eastern portions OF
Oregon and Washington. Continued
northerly winds caused considerable
damage to fruit, and possible injured grain
in California. Rain is generally needed
on the North Pacific Coast.
Except in the more northerly sections,
where corn planting is much delayed,
this work has progressed under favorable
onditions, but the reports indicate that
large amount of replanting will be
Necessary throughout the central valley
and Lake region, due in part to poor
seed. Cutworms are causing much damage
in the Ohio Valley and Middle Atlantic
States. A general improvement is indi-
Gated in the Southern States, where the
crop is largely laid by having reached the
caring stage in the West Gulf States.
"a general improvement in the condi-
ton of winter wheat is indicated in the
principal wheat States, but the condition
of the crop continues very poor in the
Ohio Valleys. Harvest is in progress in
the Southern States. On the North Pa.
cific Coast winter wheat has done we'll,
except in portions of Eastern Washing
ton, where it has been injured somewhat
by frost In California the crop is ma
turning rapidly, but has probably sustain
ed injury by desicating winds
early sown spring wheat is growing
nicely, and the general outlook for the
crop in the spring wheat region is prom
ising. Some fields in South Dakota how
ever, are weedy, and the late sown in
North Dakota has not terminated we'll.
On the North Pacific Coast early sprin
wheat is doing WE'LL but rain is needed,
for the late sown.
"Nearly all reports respecting oats in
dictate that this crop has made very IA
vorable progress Early oats are head
ing as far north as the Central Missis-
sippi Valley, and the southern portion OF
the Middle Atlantic States. Harvesting
continues in the South.

follow the storm area. the change behind
the storms passing eastward across the

Western extremes will begin to feel the
growing influence Of the Vulcan storm
period as early as the 4th and 9Th. This
period is central on the 9th, extending
from the 4th to the 9th. This period will
begin with change to much warmer in
western sections, the barometer will fall
first in the same section, and rising tenn

of rain, wind and thunder will march
