CROPS DOING fine
WEATHER is FAVORABLE FOR A
BUMPER YIELD or ALL
GRAINS.
CORN SHOWS A GOOD STAND
Acreage Devoted to Coarse Grain Has
Been Greatly Increased Over Last
Year--Rains Have Produced an
Abundance Of Grass.

Sioux Falls.-Recent rains and the
most favorable kind of weather have
greatly improved the crop outlook
throughout South Dakota. AT no time
during this spring has the outlook
been at all discouraging, but recent
rains, which have been experienced
in all parts OF the state, have made
the crop outlook first class. Accord
ingly the farmers are jubilant, and
they now feel that with favorable
weather and timely rains during the
remainder of the growing season the
crop raised in the state this year will
be the largest raised for many years.
According to all reports the acreage
devoted to corn has been greatly In
creased, the greatest In the history Of
the state. In some localities 1t was
necessary to replant corn fields be-
cause of poor seed, but in general the
crop is in good condition. In most
parts of the state corn now Is far
enough out of the ground to require
cultivating Small grain also Is In
fine condition The cool weather dur
ing the forepart OF last week was
decidedly favorable for small grain OF
all kinds, and the rains and warm
weather since that time have pushed
the crop along very fast.
