WEATHER FAVORSLATE
CROPS, BUREAU REPORTS
Frosts Do Little Damage-Pastures
Said to Suffer From Lack
of Rain.

Weather conditions in most parts
of the country the past week were
favorable to the rapid maturing of
late crops, according to the weekly
review of crop conditions by the
weather bureau, issued last night.
The bureaus study showed, however,
that insufficient moisture in many
parts Of the country had damaged
pastures and meadows and had af-
fected fall seeded grains.
Rain was needed also. the review
reported, for the preparation of the
soil and the seeding of fall grains
over large areas. The minimum of
moisture, however, permitted harvest
ing to go forward rapidly. the re-
view added. excepting few places
in the south.
the northern states from Minnesota
eastward during the week. the re-
view said, but caused little damage.
The frost damage reported by the
bureau was confined largely to Michi-
gan, where potato vines were affected
and unmatured beans suffered.
The lack of rainfall threatened the
supply of stock water in Ohio and
Arkansas. according to the review.
which reported similar, although less
menacing. conditions in some other
areas where dry weather has pre-
vailed. Western and southwestern
ranges were reported in good condi-
tion with the livestock moving sat
isfactorily to winter ranges in the
central and upper Rocky mountains.
Highways in virtually all sections
of the country were declared by the
bureau to be in satisfactory condition
for the transportation of crops to
markets.
