ALL CROPS HELPED
| BY IDEAL WEATHER
Department of Agriculture
Notes Great Improvement in
Past Few Days.

Since October / the weather condi-
tlons over the greater part of the
country have been almost ideal for
harvesting. for the preparation Of the
ground and the seeding of Fall crops
and for the maturing Of the growing
crops. the Department of Agriculture
reports. AS one result. corn has quite
generally made great progress to-
ward maturity and 1t is now apparent
that there will be much less soft and
immature corn harvested than had
seemed certain month ago.
The preparation of the soil and the
seeding Of Fall grains has made rapid
progress and the harvesting of Spring
grains Is practically completed in all
sections with good yields quite gen
orally resulting.
Live Stock in Good Shape.
Ranges and pastures are. generally
in excellent condition for the time of
the year. Hay crops are short in
some localities where droughty con-
ditions have prevailed. but stocks of
feed in the country as a whole will
probably prove ample for Winter re-
quirements. Live stock, as a rule. is
in good condition and such diseases
as have appeared in spots are now
thought to be under control.
Potatoes are being harvested in
practically all sections, though In
Mime sofa and the Dakotas digging
is being delayed due to unsatisfactory
prices. There has been some slight
frost damage to tubers in northern
localities and rot is reported in a
few instances. Sweet potatoes have
suffered considerably from drought
Digging is in progress, with yields
variable.
Tobacco Hurt by Froats.
Apples have improved considerably
in a number of areas, especially in
size. Winter varieties are now be-
ing shipped from many States.
Tobacco has made a fair crop as a
whole. but mas suffered some in quail
ity Ia number Of sections from frost
damage.
Beans are being harvested rapidly
and yields are not running high, as a
rule. due to damage in numerous To-
calities from drought and frost.
Digging of sugar beets Is under
way In some areas, with good yields
Sugar cane prospects are generally
poor due to injury from drought.
Virgfnia Peanuts Late.
In Virginia, the peanut crop is very
late. Only a small percentage has
been dug. The yield is not expected
to be more than G5 per cent Of nor
NAL. The crop is making fair yields
in Georgia, although damage to stacks
by September rains is becoming ap-
parent in some localities. The crop
has not been harvested as yet in
