CROP PROSPECT
is EXCELLENT
Reserve Moisture Assures
Northwest Good Yield, Says
Market Letter

Conditions throughout the north.
west during the past week contius
to be generally favorable for tho
satisfactory development of grain
crops, says the Van Dusen Harring-
ton crop report.
Temperatures are again normal
after two or three days of very
warm weather. Well distributed
rains have supplied the larger part
of the territory with sufficient mois-
ture to mature small grains. We
have received a few reports of local
hail damage but most of this is not
serious and is confined to restricted
areas.
Districts in northern South Dakota
and middle.western Minnesota.
which were considerably damaged
by dry weather, are making fair re-
covery. While early sown grain is
thin and uneven and will show
greatly reduced yields, later fields
have been much improved by the
ample moisture of the past three
weeks and present a good appear
ance.
Wheat Headed
Conditions generally in southern
South Dakota and southern Minne-
sofa continue to indicate q produc.
ton which is from fair to average
and better. Wheat and coarse grains
have practically all headed. Har.
vest of fall-sown wheat has begun
and should be general by the 18th.
Current prospects throughout Min
nesota as q whole should average

in some sections Of the southern dis.
tricts was somewhat affected by
early dry weather and j; little thin.
but since recent rains is filling NICE
ly and making good growth. With
the exception Of few localities, all
crops throughout the rest Of the
state show good condition. and
wheat, durum, an, coarse grains are
heading we'll.
The general progress being made
BIZ crops in Montana is also satis-
factory. Winter wheat is improved
and some districts are at present
hoping for yields of Spring wheat
considerably above the average.
Flax Looks Well
Flax throughout all the territory
is looking well, but early fields are
extremely weedy as a result Of dry
weather. With favorable conditions
and . late enough fall to allow the
delayed seedlings to mature. produc-
ton should be up to average.
Winter rye has made some inn
provement and is being harvested in
southern districts, but was damaged
by early drouth to such an extent
that it can make only q partial re-
covery under the best Of conditions.
Corn is good in stand and color
and continues to make satisfactory
progress in all sections. At some
points in southern districts it is too
high to cultivate, and is from eight
to 10 inches in height in northern
areas.
The present crop prospects in the
northwest as a whole, with a gen.
erous supply Of reserve moisture as
q background, are most favorable.
