IOWA WEATHER AND CROP
SERVICE ~
For the week ending Sept. 6, 1915.

For the week ending Sept. 6, 1915.
Des Moines, Iowa.
Ideal weather prevailed during the
week. The days were practically
cloudless, and the nights were mod
erately warm, which made the best
conditions possible for maturing the
corn crop, threshing and finishing
haying. The frost on August 30th
and 31st seriously injured corn on
low ground in the ncrth central and
northeastern countries. Probably 10
)er cent of the corn in the northeast
ern counties was badly damaged.
Shock threshing is nearly completed.
A summary of reports received on
September 1st show the average con-
diticn of crops to be as follows:
Corn, 66 per cent; potatoes, "a; pas
lures, 107; apples, 101 per cent of
the 1913 crop, which indicates g.
100000 bushels Of apples to be har-
vested. With favorable weather "a
per cent of the corn will be safe
from frost Sept. Goth, Al per cent
on September 3Oth and rs per cent
on October 18th. Preliminary re-
ports indicate average yield of win
ter wheat to be % bushels; spring
wheat, 1S; oats, AZ; barley, 33; rye,
81; timothy seed, 81 bushels per
acre. Threshing was SO per cent
completed. The acreage of timo-
thy cut for seed is 10 per cent less
than the area cut in 1914.

Tuesday Evening.

A distressing accident took place
ON Saturday. evening at about 9:30
o'clock, on the Illinois Central right
of-way, near the H. B. AtWater resi-
dence, when Archie M Ball Of this
city, was fatally injured. Mr.. Ball
had been about the streets of the
city on Saturday evening, and at
about 8 O'Clock started to walk east
on the Illinois Central tracks. At this
time fast freight train, No. So, west
bound, was pulling into the city, and
when near the bridge, the train crew
uncoupled the engine from the
train and proceeded to do some swift
ching In the yards, while the great
er portion nf the train was left
standing on the main line in the
east part OF town. ...-...& :.
Just how the terrible accident oc-
CURED II not known, and In all
probability will never be known, as
no one Aaams to have seen Mr..
Ball en- the compny's right-oaf-
way. Some advance the theory that
he possibly attempted to cross the
track by climbing across the draw
bars betWeen two cars; others be-
lieve' that he attempted to cross
the tracks on his hands and knees
underneath Q car, and while thus at
tempting to cross the track the train
started up. with the frightful results.
Residents in the vicinity of the
railroad tracks heard the mans
cries, and rushed out to flag the
train When the train was brought
to 4 stgndstil Mr.. Balls mangled
body was found on the south side OF
the rails, several cars and the ca
boose having passed over it. The
injured man was taken to Park
view hospital, where death followed
in short time. At the hospital he
regained consciousness for few
moments, but soon passed into un--
death relieving him
of his suffering. :.
Mr.. Ball has been living in Man
chester for several years, and has
been employed by local coal dealers,
and was an Industrious man. The
distressing accident brings deep
sorrow into the home. a. IL
