WINTER WHEAT
AVID RYE ACREAGE.
DAKOTA CROP AGENT REPORT
SHOWS CONDITIONS SMALL
GRAINS IN THE STATE Is
VERY GOOD.

Sioux Falls, May 15-Thme cur
rent report of HI. o. Herbrandson,
field agent in South Dakota of the
bureau of crop estimates, United
States department of agriculture,
shows there has been an increase of
amout one-fifth in the acreage of
winter wheat an an increase of more
than one-third in the acreage of win
ter rye, the condition of both crops
being good at the present time.
The report states that winter
wheat in South Dakota has come
through the winter in most excellent
condition, justifying production es-
innate of about 16 "a bushels per
acre. The ample snow covering dur
ing practically the entire winter as
sisted in bringing the crop through
with small loss. Only about 6 per
cent of the crop is estimated to have
been winter killed.
Ii is stated in the report that the
present outlook justifies a per acre
yield estimate of IL Ia bushels of
winter rye in South Dakota. The
state is especially well supplied with
the subsoil moisture at the present
time, following a good precipitation
In the late fall and a very heavy
snowfall during the winter.
The only factor, the report states,
which has in a small measure re-
tarded the growth of grass for hay
as well as pasture, has been the cold
temperatures which have prevailed.
This slow development has worked
some hardships to live stock in the
western part of the state, where the
supply of winter feed was none too
large at any time and the long, cold
winter had nearly exhausted the
ranchers' supply of feed.
The report states that it Is found
that the winter losses to most class
es of live stock in South Dakota the
past year were not severely heavy.
The state as a whole did not lose
nearly so heavily as in. the spring OF
1920.

Rains Benefit the
Crops of the State

Pierre, May 15-After month OF
very little rainfall, this section OF
the state has been well soaked the
past two days, with over two inches
of rainfall coming in showers.
While hail accompanied the first
storm, it was so light that no dam
age was done, but wind shook up
buildings north of this city in one
of the storms, tearing several small
barns to pieces.
The rain appears to have been
general all over the Missouri slope
section of the central part of the
state and has put the ground in good
shape for the crops which were get
ting a start. but needed more mois-
ture.
