The past week has been cold w ith
excess of cloudiness, but with less than
normal rain fall. The daily mean tem

normal.
The rainfall at a few places in cen
tral and southern counties exceeding
an inch, but generally it was less than
half an inch.
The lirst days of the week were
cloudy, w ith light rain: these were fol
lowed by partly cloudy, then by clear
days the last part of th3 week. Con
ditions have materially improved with
the light rainfall, but the low lands
continue too wet for the lest growth
II II . m .
P1 sm,in rd,n' as wc, as Ior Vaing
orculivating com. Small grain, gen
erally shows the effects of continued
wet weather: the growth has been
very rank, and rust is beginning to ap
pear on the winter wheat in a number
of places In the eastern counties.
However, as a whole, wheat, oats, and
rye continue in a very promising con
dition. The wet condition of the soil
has retarded corn planting, but some
progress was made generally on the up
lands on and after Friday, also the cul
tivation of early planted corn. The
corn liolbs are very weedy and corn
that is up is generally yellow and un
healthy in color; early planted corn has
germinated well, but grown slowly.
Considerale corn ground in southeast
ern counties is still unplanted; In
northern and western counties plant
ing is about complete. Strawberries
are ripening and generally promise a
good crop. The outlook is for an un
usually gol crop.
