RAPID ahowTH MADE eY CORN.
Weekly Government Bulletin Reports
Some Damage to Wheat.

Some Damage to Wheat.
The general summary of the weekly
crop report of the weather bureau is as
follows:
Although excessively hot and dry in
parts Of the middle Atlantic States and
Kentucky and Tennessee during the fore
part of the week ended July 24-and
these conditions also prevailed in the
northern plateau region and on the North
Pacific coast-as a rule temperatures
were favorable. Showers delayed work
and caused some damage to crops in Vir-
ginia. West Virginia and parts Of the
lower Ohio, central and lower MISSISSIPPI
pi valleys, Oklahoma and Texas, while
rain is needed in New England. Ten
nessee, Georgia, Alabama, Kansas and
generally throughout the plateau dis
trictS.
Favorable weather has caused rapid
growth of corn, and, with very few ex-
ceptions, the crop is in excellent condi-
ton. Corn is beginning to need rain in
Kansas and Alabama, the late needs cul-
~tivation in Arkansas and Kentucky, and
some was damaged by high winds in
Louisiana.
Winter wheat harvest is nearly COM
pleted in the principal wheat States, and
thrashing, which is well advanced, shows
grain of good yield and quality in Kan
sas. Rains nave delayed thrashing in
Virginia and Maryland and caused fur
Their damage to grain in shock or stack
in Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Okla
homa and Texas. On the north Pacific
coast winter wheat is ripening rapidly
in Washington, where harvest is in full
progress, and harvest is general in Ore
gon, with good yields indicated.
Spring wheat has continued to adj
favOrably in the spring wheat re-
gions; the early own is heading and fill
ing well, and the late sown heading in
North Dakota; the early is maturing in
South Dakota and Wisconsin, and the
crop is nearly ready to cut in Iowa. Al
though black rust is reported from scat
tered localities in Minnesota and the Da-
kotas, NJ material damage is shown, and,
with favorable weather conditions, seri-
Gus injury is not anticipated. Complaints
Of smut are received from South Dakota,
red rust in Colorado and most fields of
North Dakota and some lodging in Wis
cOnsin, while in Washington desiccating
winds have been injurious to the crop in
the filling stage and caused shrivel-
ing.
In the principal oat-producing States
harvesting of this crop is well advanced,
while in the more northerly districts oats
are heading, the early sown are maturing
rapidly, and harvest will be general dur
ing the coming week. The crop generally
is in promising condition, although badly
lodged in Ohio, and some complaints of
lodging are received from Washing
ton.
In Illinois grain in shock and stand
ing crops have been damaged in the
south by heavy rains. Corn is tasseling
and silking north and is in splendid con
dition because of fine forcing weather.
Wheat, rye and barley are in shock. The
oat harvest is well advanced north. A
good crop of hay has been secured north,
but there has been considerable damage
elsewhere. Potatoes, berries and grapes
are promising; apples disappointing.

CROW INDIAN LANDS.

In Bargaining with Uncle Sam, Chiefs
Prove Masters of Finance.
Awaiting the word of President Roose-
welt, 100000 acres of rich agricultural
and grazing ground are ready for settle
ment under the homestead and other Acts
by which a citizen of the United States,
although poor, can acquire an estate.
The land is a part of the hunting
grounds of the Grow Indians In south
eastern Montana, which were years ago
made into a reservation for the members
Of the tribe. The government began
negotiating with the Indians for this land
in 1896, and so many delays have there
been that it looks now as If It will be
next spring before the reservation win
be actually thrown open for settlement.
IL the bargain for that part of the
reservation for which they have no use
the Crow Indian chiefs have shown them
selves to be masters of high finance. Not
for kegs of brass tacks, red blankets and
barrels of rum did they barter away the
lands of their fathers, as did the Allan
tic coast Indians in the days when Man
haitian was being settled. Pretty Eagle.
Two Leggings, Medicine Eagle and the
other chiefs were entirely too "up to
date" for that. They saw to it that the
government paid the tribe $1,150,000 for
the surplus acreage, and by this one deal
they made themselves the richest Indians
in the world
