Des Moines. July 2-The weekly
weather and crop bureau reports the
past week was very warm and unus-
ually dry the only rainfall reported be-
ing a few local and generally light
showers in the southwestern! ana
southeastern counties on one day. The
high temperatures and bright sun
shine have been favorable for the rapid
advancement of corn and curing clover
hay. Corn has made very rapid
growth, but It is still uneven in height.
Some OF it has been laid by, and all
OF the fields are clean. Some of the
late planted corn is eginning to show
the effect of the dry weather, but. If
rain comes within the next week or
ten days It will continue to make good
progress. Early corn is in fine condi-
ton; the root system being sufficiently
developed to reach moist soil.
The dry weather has also been gem
orally favorable for small grain IN
checking the development Of rust and
smut, and stiffening the straw. there
by lessening the possibility Of lodging.
Oats and other small grains have
headed in all parts OF the state, and
are filing well. Rye, fall wheat and
early oats are beginning to ripen IN
the southern counties and with favor
able conditions the harvest Will beg'n
during the coming week.
Considerable clover and some tim
othy hay were put In fine condition,
and haying will be general in u few
dayS While all crops are Still in good
condition, late potatoes, late planted
corn, pastures, garden truck and fruit
would be benefited by rain.
