WEAIHER-CROP BULLETIN.

Des Moines, April 1.-THE past
week was, until Saturday, unusually
warm, and all conditions, except
brisk to high winds on Friday, were
favorable for farm work and the
growth of vegetation. The average
daily temperature was six degrees
above the normal, and on Thursday
and Friday the maximum tempera-
ture readings were considerably
above 80 degrees in nearly all parts
of the state. There was practically
no rainfall until Saturday morning,
and the amount of sunshine was ex-
cessive. Under these conditions
farm work progressed rapidly, and
the bulk of the small grain was
seeded, large proportion of the
early potato crop was planted and
much ground was plowed for corn.
The warm weather fastened the
growth of vegetation and pastur-
age will soon be sufficient for the
support of stock. Fruit buds are
swelling, and leaves are appearing
on early shrubs and some varieties
of trees. Winter wheat is reported
to be in good condition except in
a few southern and southwestern
counties where some fields are spot
ted Showers and rapidly falling
temperatures occurred on Saturday,
with general rain or snow on Sat-
urday night, and the week closes
with indications of frost and temper
atures near or below the freezing
point Saturday night.
