Crop Bulletin

For the week ending July 81, '05.
The average temperature of the week
has been 5 to degrees below nor
NAL, with some excess of cloudiness.
The rainfall was light in the north
ern section and in the eastern half
of the central section, but copious
showers fell in the west central and
the southern districts. The rainfall
was timely and beneficial to corn
potatoes, pastures and vegetables.
In portions of the northern half of
the state these crops will soon be in
need of additional moisture. Though
somewhat delayed by mists and
clouds, fair progress has been made
in securing the balance of the hay
crop, harvesting oats and threshing
from the shock. Except in the
northern counties, the oat crop is
mainly in shock or stack, and early
threshing reports indicate good
yield and quality. The harvest of
spring wheat has been begun, and
the reports are generally favorable
Corn is steadily advancing in all
districts, with present indications Of
a good yield Of that great staple
The pastures afford ample feed for
grazing herds. The hay crop is
heavy, though portion has been
damaged by wet weather. The
apple crop has continually declined
though in some localities early varie
ties yield we'll.
