spotted that it is impos sible to form
any accurate idea Of the outcome.
Barley and oats show condition
somewhat above that Of wheat, as
they were seeded later. Last year
about this time the oat crop was suf-
fering for lack Of moisture, but with
rains it revived and the outcome was
very satisfactory. The same condi-
tons may prevail again this season,
but it is too early to know definitely.
Practically all flax has been seeded.
The general condition of the fields is
good. although there are some places
where it terminated slowly and is
backward. The cold weather has also
been factor in retarding develop
ment and the crop has made slow
growth the past week. There is now
enough moisture generally to carry
the flax crop for some time. Many
Of our correspondents indicate a con-
siderable reduction in the acreage in
central North Dakota which, in the
past, has been quite heavy flax pro-
ducing territory.
Corn has not suffered to any ex.
tent, except possibly in central South
Dakota and in north central Mime
sofa. In southern South Dakota and
southern Minnesota, the crop has
made good progress. The recent
moisture has come as q great relief
and there are still prospects for a
good corn crop. In North Dakota it
is very backward, due principally to
dry and cold weather.
One Of the difficult problems of the
farmers this spring has been the lack
of pasturage. The hay crop has
been very poor. and because Of the
| shortage Of feed many farmers had
contemplated shipping their stock
The recent rains will undoubtedly i'm
prove the pastures and create more
optimistic feeling. We believe that
the general crop conditions through
out the northwest will show con.
siderably improved condition during
