For the Week Ending April II 1916.
Des Moines, Iowa.
With the exception of severe sleet
and ice storm early in February, fav.
orable conditions prevailed during
the winter, and while cold weather,
with freezing temperatures at night,
has prevailed most of the time thus
far this spring, farm work is progress
ing rapidly over the southern half Of
the state. Frost is not yet all out OF
the ground in the northern sections
and the ground is, in most places, too
wet to work. The bulk of the small
grain seeding is finished in the south
ern counties and considerable plow-
ing has been done for corn with the
soil in excellent condition. Reports
var vas to condition of fall-sown
grains, but there is no doubt but what
the crops have been seriously dam
aged in many localities and the acre
age of winter wheat has been greatly
reduced. Many reports indicate Is to
80 per cent damage and % to 60 per
cent reduction in acreage. Cold
weather has kept grass and fruit buds
almost dormant All live stock is in
% healthy condition and the spring
pig crop will be large A good. warm
rain would be very beneficial;
