TAKES OPTIMISTIC VIEW


T. s. Outram, local observer Of the
United States weather bureau, issued
the following bulletin today on crop
conditions in Minnesota for the week
ending Monday:
There were rains In the northern part OF
the state on the 18th, and rains again on
the 21st, which reached nearly all parts
of the state, except across the extreme
southern portion. The 18th was very
warm, with the maximum temperature
ranging from 80 degrees to 81 degrees;
the 18th and 18th were also warm but
with no readings over 80 degrees; in the
middle and latter parts of the week the
night were cool and the day temperatures
We're moderate. The week was generally
favorable for small grains still uncut, tho
in southern portions it was thought that
the heat early in the week was forcing
spring wheat and oats toward maturity
too rapidly. Rye and barley cutting is
well advanced and in many places it Is
finished. Red rust is present on the wheat
in many fields; but no apprehension re-
garding it is felt. Black rust reports are
received from scattered points in Douglas
Bigstone, Renville, Redwood, Cottonwood
Wright, Murray and Mobiles counties, the
first indication of its presence being

Under normal conditions, the stand

new rates on a basis Of $14 to New York

From all points between here and De-
