Missouri Crop Report for June.
The following crop report was
issued June 5, from the office of
7. C.. Wilson, secretary of the
Missouri State Board of Agricul-
ture;
The month Of May was a very
unfavorable one for Missouri
farmers owing to excessive rain
fall and unusually low tempera-
ture. With the exception of a
few counties in the southern part
Of the state and a limited terri
tory in northwest Missouri where
1t was too dry earlier in the sea-
son, reports from every part tell
Of too much rain. Many CORE
spOndents state that fields were
dry enough to work only a few
days during the month. Not only
has the weather been unreason-
ably cool, but there has been a
minimum of sunshine. However.
the ground is working much bet
ter than weather conditions seem
to indicate. Hailstorms have de-
Stroyed crops in a few neighbor-
hoods, and local floods have done
damage over limited areas, but so
far no general losses from over
flows have been reported.
The following reports give q
fair idea as to general conditions
in the five crop divisions of the
state.

it as well as other crops"
Corn-Corn planting which was
commenced much earlier this year
than usual, was greatly interfer-
ed with throughout the mouth Of
May by too much rain. The es-
timated percentage of the crop
now planted throughout the state
is 80,5, as compared with 91.2 one
year ago. One month ago 46.7,
per cent of the crop had been
planted, only 1913 per cent being
planted during .the month of
May. Of the part planted it is
estimated that 28.9 per cent has
been or viii be planted over. Com
plants of poor stand are gener-
al, a number of correspondents re-
porting much corn to be planted
over the second time. The con
ditiOn of the growing crop is
placed at 67.2, as compared with
1913 one year ago, or S0.2 as the
ten year average. A preliminary
estimate of the acreage places it
at 1912 as combared with last
year, when it was 7,205,396.
Should wet weather continue, the
final figures may show a de-
crease.
Wheat-Reports show the con-
dition of wheat for the state, to
be So, as compared with 70.5 one
month ago, 76.4 one year ago, and
SOB as the ten-year average for
June /. a number of correspond
ents report some Improvement,
but this is more than offset by
the unfavorable reports from
many counties where damage has
been done by the Hessian fly.
Wheat harvest will begin in from
two to five weeks, depending up
on the territory. The average of
the reports for the state places
the time until the what will be
ripe at 81 weeks.
0ats-The outlook for a good
oat crop is favorable throughout
the state, the condition being
placed at 91.2 as compared with
1872 one month ago, 1913 one year
ago, and II as the ten-year av-
erage.
Clover, Timothy and other
crops-The condition of the old
clover crop is placed at 1876; new
clover crop, S3.6; alfalfa, SAG;
timothy, 1917 ; flax, 1914.

mate of the tobacco acreage

pared with Last year. Condition
