The Iowa weather crop bulletin

seven days than in any other week Of
the season. The rainfall was heavy
except over the northwestern quarter
of the state; the amounts. In many
localities, in the eastern and southern
districts exceeded three inches, and a
few stations report more than five
inches. In many localities the rains
were accompanied by destructive
wind squalls and hailstorms, which
did much damage to corn. The aver
age temperature was nearly normal,
although several nights were quite
cool. Light frost occurred in ex-
posed places over the northwestern
counties, but no damage was done.
The rains were of great benefit to
pastures, aftermath, late potatoes,
blowing and to some Of the late corn.
Flowing is now progressing rapidly,
and a large area is being prepared in
the southern districts for fall wheat
and rye Corn is maturing rapidly
and fully three,fourths OF 1t will be
beyond danger Of frost by the end OF
the coming week. More than 80 per
cent Of it will be safe by the goth and
practically all OF it by the end Of
the month The average condition OF
corn on September LIST was placed at
81 per cent, or loss Of 10 percent
during August. The condition of late
potatoes was 6S percent and pastures
20 percent. With favorable weather
in the future, corn husking will begin
earlier than usual.
