LAST WEATHER-CROP
BULLETIN FOR 1914

Des Moines, Sept. 15.-Weekly bull
letin of the Iowa weather and crop
service for the week ending Sept. ID:
Cool, cloudy and wet weather pre-
vailed during the week. The average
temperature was about five degrees
below the normal, and the rainfall was
copious to excessive. Pastures have
revived and are now in good condition
and fall blowing and seeding of winter
wheat and rye is progressing rapidly.
Late potatoes and some late corn Will
be benefited by the rains, but the
bulk of the corn is dry and beyond
danger of injury by frost.
Based on present conditions and an
area of 1924 acres, the state will pro-
duce about 32O,0O0,0O0 bushels of corn.
A summary of reports received
Sept. /, with Sc per cent of the thresh-
ing completed, shows the average
yield of small grains to be as follows:
Oats, 33 bushels per acre; winter
wheat, %; spring wheat, Is; barley,
26: rye, 10, and timothy seed, AZ bush
els per acre. If these estimates are
