July 9. General summary:
The past week has been hot, with heavy
showers in eastern counties. The dally
mean temperature has averaged 5 degrees
above normal. The maximum temperatures
for the weok generally oxeceded 100 do
grees In southern counties and were but
little below 100 degrees in northern.
The rainfall of the past week has boen
heavy in southeastern counties, varying
from one to nearly six Inches; in the
northern and western counties it has gen
erally been less than halt an inch. .
Winter wheat harvest Is nearly com
pleted and threshing has commenced In
southern counties! the yield Is good In both
quality and quantity. 8prlng wheat and
oats have been considerably damaged by
chlncbbuga and dry weather In central
and southwestern eountleB, and In many
fields these crops will be about a failure.
In some places cblnchbugs aro leaving the
wheat fields and attacking tho corn. Corn
has been damaged slightly In a few south
western counties by the hot weather of the
past week! generally, however, corn has
grown well and In a large part of the state
has grown very 'rapidly. Corn Is small for
this time of year. O. A. LOVELAND.

exceedingly hot from the 1st to tho Cth,
the heated period culminating In maximum
tcmperntures from 100 to 104 degrees nt
numerous stations on the 4th Inst. The In
tensity of the heat was relieved to some ex
tent by local thunderstorms and wind
squalls, from the 1st to tho 4th, and
numerous stations In the southwestern and
northern districts report moro than the
normal amount of rainfall. Probably three
fourths of tho state received a fair amount
of moisture, but tho intenso heat and
high winds caused rapid evaporation, and
the effects of dry weather are noted In the
pastures, gardens and grain fields. In somr
sections the oats crop has boon prema
turely rlptiiu'd, and It Is probable that tho
quality of spring wheat and barley haa
l been somifwhat Impaired by excesslvo heat.
Good progress has been niado In haying

securing an excellent quality of hay. Oats
: and barley are being cut. and spring wheat
I is about ready for the harvest.

When tho bnby Is sick have It attended

Horses need much the same precautions
as men Tho same consideration for their
powers of endurance should bo observed.
They should not bo overworked In the sun,
If anything, a horse should be sponged
off oftener than a mun bathes. Sponge them
with cold water. Their skins arc not sensi

.Do not feed horses until an hour after
they havo come Into the stable. They
should be allowed to become thoroughly

Give them water often. If they are over

with clean fields and fair prospects. In
limited portions of the southeast district
the reports state that corn has already suf
fered some damage from heat and drouth,
and these reports may be taken to signify
that It Is near the danger line, but may be
restored by timely rainfall.
Tho pastures, early potatoes, garden
truck and berries have thus far suffered
the worst effects of tho hot winds.. The
apple crop has declined In condition as
the result ot Intense heat.
