Wet Weather is
Delaying Harvest

The weather bureaus Washington crop
and weather report of current date has
the following to say relative to the grain
harvest:
In the winter wheat belt, between the
Appalachian and Rocky mountains,
damp, rainy weather in many parts de-
layed the harvest and hurt grain stand
ing in field and shock, especially in Okla
homa and portions of surrounding states.
In Atlantic and Pacific coast states
harvesting is proceeding rapidly under
favorable conditions. In the spring wheat
belt II was mostly cold and wet. but
crop made good growth. In the north
western states hot, dry winds again
caused some injury. In the corn belt
cold and wet weather continued, and
cultivation and growth. in many Inn
portant states. stin further delayed. The
crop Is late and plants small over all
northern districts. Further south II Is
much more favorable, and In many sec
tons an excellent yield Is assured. Hay
ing and harvesting oats were delayed,
and some rust in oats and damage to
hay Is reported.
