Weather Crop Bulletin.
For the week ending June 8, 1908.

l o, o.
Des Moines, Iowa.
The fore part of the week was cool
and cloudy, with scattered light show
ers; the latter part gave an excess of
temperature and precipitation over the
larger part of the state. 1t was, how
ever, the most favorable week we have
had for farm work since the first of
May. Showers were frequent, but the
rainfall was light previous to Friday
night, and farmers were in the fields
from three to four days, during which
time planting, replanting and cultiva-
ting corn was vigorously pushed. Corn
planting is practically finished in high
and well drained fields, but much of
the low land is still covered with water,
and many fields will be used for later
crops. The early planted corn shows
an exceptionally good stand, and is
generally in good condition except that
the weeds are getting rank and will
have to be subdued at an early date or
there will be rapid decline in con-
dition. Small grain, grass and clover
have continued to make very rank
growth, altho it was checked some-
what by the cold weather during the
fore part of the week. Oats and
wheat in southern counties are report
ed as beginning to show few heads.
Garden truck is exceptionally thrifty,
and tree fruits and berries are in bet
ter condition than was thought pos
sible after the frost early in May.
Severe and destructive wind storms
are reported in this mornings press
dispatches as having occurred Sunday
afternoon in Floyd and Linn counties.

Eufaula, and an attempt made to
secure the county records and move
them to Checotah before injunction
proceedings could be commenced.
When the Checotah special train, con-
tanning a dozen armed men, arrived
at Eufaula they we're met by 80 armed
citizens. j. c. Parmenter of Checotah
and Constable Woods got into an al
tercation and exchanged shots. A num-
ber of shots were fired by outsiders.
