CROP REVIEW
IS UNCHANGED
CONDITIONS ARE ABOUT THE
SAME AS LAST WEEK,
SAYS REPORT.

Washington, ID. c., June 3-Crop
conditions are reported today by the
weather bureau in its weekly wealth
er and crop review for the week end
ing Tuesday followed along the same
lines as reported a week ago, due to
continuation of like weather ocndi-
tions-normal day temperatures but
cool nights.
IA The southwest and parts of the
south again suffered from cool
weather and too much rainfall. Frost
did some damage in the far north
west.
Winter wheat continued to make
rapid growth under the influence of
moderate temperatures and general
ly ample rainfall. In portions of
the winter wheat belt the growth
was reported as too rapid. The crop
was said, however. to be in poor con-
dition in western Kansas, where
fields have become weedy and in the
more northwestern states where it
has been cold and dry. Wheat was
ripening at the close of the week as
far north as Tennessee and southern
Oklahoma.
Spring wheat was favorably af-
fected by the weeks weather, al
though it was somewhat too wet in
some parts of North Dakota.
The weather favored oats except in
portions of Iowa and South Dakota,
where 1t was too dry. Corn made
good growth during the week. Plant
ing was reported as still in progress
in most of the states.
