WEEKLY CROP REPORT

We have now arrived at the period
Of the northwest crop development
when damage reports are expected.
Conditions of the crops up to this
time have been very favorable. Dur.
ing the past week there have been
several very hot days with high winds
in South Dakota and the small grain
shows some deterioration. With the
exception Of southern South Dakota,
this state needs moisture. A num-
Der of good rains fell in some of the
dry territory recently. These will be
OF great benefit. In southern Mime
sofa, there has been considerable dam
age because of excessive rains.
The customary reports of black rust
have been received. 1t is however,
entirely too early to take these re-
ports seriously and we are unable to
confirm them. Red rust has appeared
in the wet districts Of South Dakota
and southern Minnesota. North Da,
kota has been exceptionally fortunate
and has prospects for fine crops. This
condition Is also true in Minnesota,
except the extreme southern part. In
Minnesota and South Dakota, wheat
has started to head, and is exception
ally early.
Oats have not fully recovered from
the cold snap in the spring. Some
seeded early have thinned out consid-
erably. Others were not affected and
their condition is good, Barley has
begun to head in South Dakota and
Minnesota and shows a good condi.
ton. At present, corr is fully up to
the average. Recent dry weather has
enabled farmers, in some of the
southern districts, to cultivate where
the fields were very weedy. Flax is
now being sown under favorable con
ditions in western North Dakota and
Montana. These are the heavy fax
districts of the northwest. In Mime.
sofa and South Dakota, early fax ia
several inches. There is, however. no
apparent increase over the previous
estimates Of the northwestern flax
acreage. G~rasshoppers have appeared
in western North Dakota and eastetn
Montana, and many farmers are en-
~deavoring to destroy them by poison.
Owing to the advanced season and the
large amount of green vegetation for
them to feed on, the damage should
not be serious. There are also some
damage reports from Montana by cut.
worms.

tors to Readjust Terms

Purchasers Of government vessels
who are now seeking relief on re-
vision of tonnage prices can hope for
no assistance until Congress acts on
their applications, according to United
States Shipping Board officials.
Admiralty lawyers confirmed the as
sertion yesterday of Elmer Schlesinger
general counsel for the board, that the
government, through its representa-
tves in the Senate and House, must
PASS upon the petition of such com
panies as the Green Star Line for a
reduction of the amount they con
tractcd to pay for steel hulls at the
crest of the trade wave.
1t was plainly indicated that the
boards opinion is that it would be I'M
fair to companies that purchased ships
outright from the board during the
days when commerce was at it's height
to readjust prices on the present-day
market.
AS matter of fact, Shipping Boarc
officials say, opposition will arise wher
the all important question is brought
up for settlement. Looking at the mat
ter from & strictly business standpoint
those who oppose the petition of the
Green Star Line and others like i
assert that the Green Star, like many
other corporations in the American
shipping world, bought ships from the
government with "eyes open."s They
made money with them, it is argued, ane
when the slump came expected relic.
from the government.
Those opposed to granting the Greer
Star Line petition contend that con
tract was made with the United States
and that only the United States, through
its representatives. in Congress, car
alter the terms of that contract

commissioners of the board, now is il
