first Issue of th Weekly Climate and Crop
Bulletin for Ii6, a . brief nummary of
w rather and crop condition for the pant
fall and, winter la given to present a more
complete, view of the crop conditions at the
opening oi the season. Subsequent num
bers will contain a chart of precipitation
for the week ending Monday morning, and
ii summary of conditions for each county,
a wan done last year.
August. September and October The rain
fall for August. 11X11. wan about normal.
The soil was In good condition In most
parts of the state and plowing progressed
nicely. A fw pieces of winter wheat were
own the lust part of the month. Rain
was light the first part of September and
the seeding of winter wheat progressed
lowly. The last week was wet and con
siderable wheat waa sown. October was
warm and wet and fall sown grain was
placed . in the ground under unusually
favorable conditions. Winter wheat came
up quickly and grew fast and In most coun
ties was In unusually good condition. The
Hessian fly was noticed In many wheat
fields the last part of the month and prob
ably "dtafiopA ' damage',' especially In the
central portion of the wheat belt of the
state.
November November wns warm and very
dry. The dry condition of the soil was
lather unfavorable for winter wheat, but
no scrloua Injury resulted, and where there
was no damage from the Hessian fly, the
wheat was In good, thrifty condition. The
Hessian fly appeared in practically all
counties where winter wheat was sown.
The damage to the crop was, however,
light In most counties. The greatest
damage was done In Fillmore, York ind
Reward counties. The damage was esti
mated as high as 50 per cent of the crop ir.
aome places.
December 'Warm, dry weather continued
In December. "Vhile the dry condition of
the soil was not the most favorable for
winter wheat, little or no dnmage resulted.
The ground was without a covering of enow
the whole month, but there was no severe
weather to injure fall sown grain. In many
places wheat was In good condition, but In a
larger number of1 places than usual it was
in a fair a poor condition. This wa-i due,
In a large Pleasure, to the presence of the
Hessian fly and to a dry fall.
January and February Warm, dry
weather continued for the firs week In
January. On the 9th and 10th snow fell In
most parts of the state, covering- the ground
to a depth of several Inches. IjjW tem
perature and several snowstorms during
the last three weeks of January and the
first three weeks of February increased tho
depth of snow until It exceeded twenty
Ini'hes In many places. 7h ground was
well covered with snow, whl'ii protcctfd
the winter wheat, tree roots, etc., from tac
unusually low temperature which occurred
during this period. The L-st week In Feb
ruary was warm and the snow melted
rapidly, leaving the ground practlcnlly free
from snow at the end of he month.
March March was warm, with about the
normal precipitation. The weal her was
favorable for the advancement of spring
work on the farm and 1 1.3 soil waa In -cellent
condition. Considerable plowing
was done and some spring wheat and oats
were sown. Winter wheat started nicely
and with very few exceptions was In r'gor
ous, promising condition at the end of the
month. Grass started early and grew
rapidly.
The First Ten Days In April The first
ten days In April were warm, with deficient
precipitation in most parts of the state.
Showers occurred generally during the first
three days, but they were light In most
southern counties, with a rainfall of less
than half an Inch. In northern and west
ern counties the rainfall exceeded an Inch
In some places. Snow fell to a sufficient
depth to whiten the ground in some north
eastern counties.
While the temperature for the period
averaged about three degrees above normal
frost occurred generally on the 5th. fith and
7th. Vegetation was not sufficiently ad
vanced to be Injured to any appreciable ex
tent. Farm work progressed rapidly, with the
soli in excellent condition. Spring wheat Is
about all sown nnd early fields are coming
up nicely. Oat needing ls about finished In
southern counties and Is well advanced In
northern. Early sown fields are up nicely.
Winter wheat lived through the winter well
and Is almost uniformly reported as look
ing finely. The Hessian fly Is reported as
present in a few cases, but ns yet no dam
age Is apparent. Grass started early and
pastures afforded a living for cattle two
weeks earlier than In the average season.
Flowtrfft for corn has begun In southern
counties. Plum and nprlcot trees are be
ginning to bloom in southeastern counties,

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, April 12. (Special.)-Under an
amendment to the revenue law enacted by
the late legislature the State Board of
Equalization has a right to equalise as
sessments by raising or lowering the valua
tion of a class of property to make It con
form to the assessment of the other prop
erty In the county or state. In other word,
If one county values horsva too high and
lands to low, to equalize the State board
can for that county Increase the value of
its land and decrease the value of Its
horses. Under the original law It was
necessary for the board to either Increase
or decrease the valuation of every Item of
property In the county if any change were
made. The board has also sent out in
structions to county assessors to conform
to the decision of the supreme court In the
matter of credits. Tho board holds that
every evidence of indebtedness represent
ing money loaned or Invested for profit is
subject to taxation as a separate item.
By authority of the board Secretary
George D. Bennett has sent out the follow
ing letter to assessors:
It Is vry important that all classes of
property be listed and valued as provided
In section 12, chapter Ixxvll, article 1.
compiled statutes I'M. Section 113 pro
vides that oounty assessors shall require
of deputy assessors that the assessment of
property be uniform throughout the county,
and that the property be assessed as di
rected by law; and to t he end they shall
bti authorized to alter or change any as
sessment made by any deputy assessor,
so that the same shall conform to law.
Section 115 provides that county assessors
shall, In the listing and assessing of prop
erty, follow the rules and regulations pro
vided by the law and the instruction formu
lated by the State Board of Equalization
and Assessment as recited on jiersonal
property schedules. It also defines the
action of th-j board in cases where such
provisions are not complied with.
An amendment to the statute waa adopted
by the legislature of 1H06 clothing the state
board with power to equalize by classes;
while this provision allows the board more
latitude. It in no way relieves assessing
officers from the duty imposed under sec
tion 12. Certain clauses of property are re
sisting the tax levied on the grounds that
all property In the state was not valued
uniformly, as provided by the constitution
and statutes. If the federal court sustains
this contention, county officers who list,
vnlue and equalize property other than that
of railroads, must naturally bear their por
tion of the criticism. It is earnestly urged
that all assessors adhere strictly to sec
lion 113 so that It shall not become neces
sary for the state board to apply the pen
alty Imposed under section Hi.
Cheap Books for Students.
At last It looks as though the students of
the State university will secure their text
books at cost and thus be saved the enor
mous profit made by the Lincoln Book
trust. At a meeting of the Board of Re
gents yesterday the office of purchasing
agent was created and B. H. Clark was
appointed purchasing agent. He was In
structed by the board to Investigate the
practicability of buying books at wholesale
prices to be sold the students at cost and
report at the earliest possible date. The
students have made a vigorous fight to
have the regents secure textbooks and
then allow them to buy them at cost, but
until now their apopals have fallen on deaf
ears. Superintendent Clark of Peru? who
was let out by Tom Majors last year, fur
nished textbooks to the Normal school stu
dents and saved them $5,000, as shown by
his report to the board, during one .year.
Mr. Clark adopted a plan whereby the stu
dent could either rent or buy the books. If
Mr. Clark could save the 500 Normal stu
dents $5,000, students of the university can
see rib reason why . the university regents
cannot save a much larger sum to them.
Hereafter everything purchased for the
use of the university or any of Its depart
ments will be bought through Mr. Clark,
the new purchasing agent.
