The following is the Iowa
weather crop bulletin for the week
ending Sept. 2: The past week
was very warm and shovVery. The
average daily temperature was 3 to
5 degrees above the normal. Very
heavy showers occurred on Wednes-
day night and Thursday morning
in the central district, and copious
rainfall was reported in all except
the southwest and south central dis
tricts. The wet weather caused
some delay in threshing, but the
rain was generally beneficial to all
growing crops, and the soil is now
in good condition for blowing. Corn
has made very good advancement.
Reports indicate that with normal
conditions the most advanced fields
will be practically safe about the
25th Of September. To ripen the
major portion of the crop there is
need of warm days and frostless
nights till October LIST and warm
week beyond that date will be very
helpful.
