nes Moines, Aug. 30.-The weekly
crop bulletin says:
The week was cool and dry. The
rainfall was practically nil and trace
of frost was observed on the morning
Of the 9th in Emmett county. The con-
ditions were favorable for finishing
shock threshing and for all outdoor
work, but the ground is too dry for fall
blowing, altho much of that work
was DONE
The corn crop, as a whole, is doing
remarkably well and. over the greater
part of the state, promises a fair to
good yield. Much of it is we'll dented
and few of the earliest planted fields
will be safe from frost in ten days, but
fully so per cent of the crop will need
thirty days of favorable weather to
mature. The crop is further advanced
and is in better condition in the north
ern counties than it is in the southern
part Of the state.
Rains now will be of but little, If any,
benefit, except possibly to some of the
late fields in the southern counties.
Rain would however, be of great bene-
