Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, July 31.-The Illinois
Central's crop report for the week
ending Friday evening, for the Mime
4 sofa division, which comprises all
northern Iowa, says the weather was
ideal for harvesting, but too dry for
corn and other crops. The report is
as follows:
with IS per cent sunshine and a
daily average temperature Of six re-
grees above normal, the past week has
been ideal for harvesting of small
grain. However, Saturday afternoon.
July %, the district lying north of
Stacyyille was visited by an excep-
tionally severe storm which did con-
siderable damage to crops and build
ings. There were local showers at
various local points on thes division.
although the corn has made an ex-
ceptionally rapid growth sduring the
last few weeks, it has reached the
stage Of development where rain Is
essential. The corn continues to be
healthy and the stand Is good In
some localities where there has been
little or no rain, leaves are beginning
to roll.

with q continuance Of the dry
weather for the next week the oats
crop should all be in the shock. The
consensus of opinion is that the hot
weather has lightened the Yield Of
this crop, but until threshing starts
no definite comparison can be made
with last years crop. The same Is true
with wheat and barley and rye. all
OF which are now in shock and ready
for threshing, which will begin dur
ing the coming week.
"Hay is practically all cut and
stacked. Various estimates received
as to the yield of this crop shows the
country adjacent to the main line and
Cedar Rapids division will produce a
heavier crop than for some years,
while on the Albert Lea district
lighter, yield will bring the average
down to about two tons per acre, as
compared with an average OF IL tons
for all Iowa during the past ten years.
