NO CHANGE IN CROPS.
Corn Has Advanced Slowly because of
Cool Temperatures.

Boston, Aug. 23.-Thc weekly crop
OF the climate and crop service OF tho
weather bureau says: Generally cool
weather prevailed in all parts of New
England the past week, the tempera-
ture being below the average in all
sections. These low averages were
invariably due to low minimum tenn
pcratures, resulting in light frosts in
many portions of Maine. but not suf-
ficient to cause any marked damage.
The low temperatures have caused
corn to be delayed in it's advancement
The rainfall was generally ample and
caused crops to be greatly revived in
all portions, particularly in the north
crn portion Of the section.
No decided change has taken place
in the condition of crops during the
past week. owing to the prevailing
| cool temperatures. Corn has advanced
slowly and Is generally slightly late,
but IL good crop is expected, as cars
are filling well. The precipitation was
generally ample and was we'll dis
tributed, all sections receiving more
or less moisture. All other crops are

G~rain.-Thc weather tho past week
was too cool for corn and latc-sown
cereals. u favorable for harvesting;
oat and wheat harvest being well UNI
der way. while barley harvest Is prac-
tically completed. Yields in all three
of these grains show ii very satisfac-
tory condition. especially the oat yield
which il excellent in both grain and
straw. Some reports of lodging by
showers were received, but no great
damage done; also occasional reports
show slight damage from wetting IN
the shock. Corn has not made as
rapid advancement as desired, hut
shows Il wholesome condition., and un-
less early frOsts overtake late-planted
fields, the corn will be abundant. Buck
wheat has made scasonablc progress
as has corn sOwn for fodder.
Grass.-The rains the past week. to-
gether with moderate temperatures
have produced an ideal condition fol-
growth of pastures and rowen The
former shows "A condition ample to
assure plenty of fall feed, and the lat,

Fruit.-Fruit conditions are similal
to those of last report. Berries OF a.

The plain clothes men, Detectives
T. ]. Moore and Will Baker are now
full-fedged secret service men and
working on several matters.
"of course, our work will not be
that of a policeman proper" one ex-
planned this morning, "and you re-
rorters should not try to keep tab on
US like you do the police department.
When we have anything we can give
out, which will interest the public
and at the same time be Of aid to
us, we will gladly do so. We want the
press to help us when we think 1t
necessary"
The plain clothes men will be a
great improvement, beyond a doubt,

aievlng in the city. Thieves get on
0 pollcemens' routes and work while
