In excellent condition. The prospect for a
heavy ylclil of wheat and oats In good , the
cool weather of the past ten day * bavins
strengthened the plants. Corn , the main
crop , ban suffered sightly , but will recover.
Corn Is belnR plowed In some parts of the
county. The RTOM acreage of crops In the
county Is greater than In former years.
UIXON.
Newcastle The soil In this part of Ulxon
county U a little dry. Crops arc from two
to four weeks ahead of last year , large fields
of 'corn having already pawed their first
plowing. The acreage Is uomowhat larger
than last year. The outlook Is good , although
lnl.nceJed.
Fremont The Increase of acreage of culti
vated crops over last year Is estimated at
about 15 per centincreased ; acreage of corn ,
from G to 10 per cent ; o ti , 10 per ctnt ; winter
wheat , decrcass , 60 per cent. Small grain
before .the frost was looking well. The frost
tilppcil the tops and tot them hack fully two
weeks. On high lands grain has been very
much Injured by the dry weather and unlcw
we have rain soon the crop will bo light. Corn
Was not Injured by the frost nearly ai badly
an at first reported. The froK seemed to bo
confined to well define ] areas and consider
able corn escape ] untouched. Listed corn
; ind that Just coming up escaped Injury.
J'nrly corn waj frozen and some of It had to
he replanted. Corn planting Is very nearly
finished. I'otatoc3 were frozen down even
with the ground by the late frost. They are
'coming up again In good shape. Beets are
looking fine. Some damage has been done
them by hugs.
HOLT.
Ewlng Prospects are very good. Small
grain Is looking well , while corn Is recover
ing from the recent cold spell In fine shape.
The acreage of email grain Is not as large
an mmal , but the acreage of corn Is nearly
double. A fine shower last evening has greatly
Improved the appearance of all crops.
O'Nclli The crop outlook In Holt county
Is good. More rain has fallen this spring
than In the tprlng of ' 92 and the ground
U In good condition. The weather has been
too cool for favorable growth. There Is a
smaller area of wheat and more corn. Prob
ably one-third more ground Is planted to corn
than ever before. Corn looks fine.
KNOX.
Nlobrara The damage done by the frosts
last Sunday and Monday nights was con
fined In the early planted fields. All crops In
this county were planted late owing to the
delay In procuring seed. The acreage will
1 > e 20 per cent Uss than last year. Corn
Is not suffering now , although rain will be
needed very toon.
toon.NANCE. .
Fullerton Small grain Is beginning to show
the need of rain. Ilye and winter wheat will
not make more than one-third of nn average
crop. Spring wheat and oats ore looking
exceedingly well , but must have rain soon to
Insure : i good crop. Corn throughout the
entire county Is In splendid condition , with
a perfect stand. Farm work Is at least three
weeks further advanced than ordinarily. H -
cent frosts have done but little damage. A
larger crop will be harvested this year than
ever before In the history of the county.
PIEKCE.
Pierce Crops never looked better. While
we have been visited with seemingly heavy
frosts the damage has been relatively light.
The acreage of corn Is a great deal larger
compared with former years. Small grain is
up to the average. Soil Is In excellent con
dition and farmers fesl Jubilant over the
flattering prospects.
STANTON.
Stanton Crop prospects are by no means
discouraging. The acreage Is about 10 pr
cent greater than last year. Small grain
Is a llttlo browned from the effects of the
frost , but otherwise looks well. Early
planted corn In some localities was slightly
Injured by the frost , but very llttlo replant
ing was jiecessary. There was sufilclunt
.moisture In the ground to germinate the
late planted corn. Cut worms are doing
some damage. Small fruit was Injured by
.the frosts. Haiti Is needed 'badly , but the
.general crop prospects of the county have
seldom been better , ! at this time of the year.
TinjUSTON.
. , 'Fender A larger area ot corn has been
jilnntedIn 'Thuraton ' county this year than
ever. , before ? and the crop Is looking well.
The soil still has considerable moisture
and Is In good condition. Cold weather and
light frosts have retarded the growth of
corn and small grain somewhat , but Jio
serious Injury has been reported.
WASHINGTON.
nialr In general crops look well. .The
frost has done a little , damage In some portions
tions of the county , mostly on the low lands.
The county needs rain badly , nearly every
farmer saying that all crops are suffering
more from lack of rain than from frosts.
More corn hns been planted this year than
last and about the same amount of small
grain.

Northwestern Nebraska seems to bo doing
herself proud this spring. In no part of
the state has Irrigation come Into such
extensive use. und. as It nature was bent
en helping the farmer who helps himself ,
the moisture drawn from ditches and canals
.has been supplemented hy liberal showers.
Altogether northwestern Nebraska Is In bet
ter shape than ever before In the history
of the state.
BOX HUTTE.
llcmlngford The spring has been late
, nnd dry , but all crops are looking remark
ably well , The rains have made a wonder
ful development , and If June Is equally
favorable this county will have a grand
rnp. The acreage of all crops Is about the
same as last year , with the possible excep
tion of wheat.
CHEimY.
Valentino Soil getting dry. Early wheat
slightly yellow. Corn sick from told
" weather. Uye and oats compare favorably
"with crops of former years. The acreage of
wheat Is about two-thirds of-former years.
The stand Is excellent. The acreage of
other cereal crops Is about one-half of former
years. Damage by frosts confined to garden
'products.
' DAWES
Craw ford--Late nno\Vs and heavy rains
during the early part of last month left
'the land In this part of Dawes county In
excellent condition to start with. The
weather for the past month has been cold
and backward , the table lands as usual re
ceiving lots of rain. Irrigation ditches are
being pushed In every direction with great
energy. The acreage of all crops Is at least
one-fourth greater than last year. All crops
ore doing finely and none were Injured by
the recent frosts.
DEUEL.
Chappull The outlook for crops In this
count- , except In the Irrigated portions , is
very discouraging , as wo have had no rain
to speak ot this.spring and the ground Is
very dry. The acreage Is about one-half
of what It was last year and wheat and corn
are the principal crops. * Late frosts did very
little damage , except to potatoes.
LINCOLN.
North I'lattc Lincoln county crops are
suffering from drouth. Work on Irrigated
farms Is In advance of the scabon , while on
upland furniH It has about ceased on account
of the dry condition of the toll. The average -
ago rainfall has been less than usual , taking
the entire county. Hccent frosts did hut

LOGAN.
Gondy Farmers all say that the soil was
never In better condition to work and crops
ore progressing finely. Cool weather during
the past two weeks has been Tfry beneficial
to small grain. Acreage from GO to 75 per
cent of former years. The general feeling
Is that there will he a small grain crop ,
with a fair prospect for corn , Italnfall has
jeen a little better than the average. No
tun n go by frosts. Outlook Is good for a
ne buy crop. Pastures are fine.
UOCK.
Hassett Dry and cold for past two weeks
and crops of all kinds are Injured. Ground
oo dry and weather has been too cold for
reps to make any progress and altogether
ho prospect Is not bright. The acreage Is
not so large ns last year. If wo get rain
eon there will he a good hay crop.
SIOUX.
Harrison In some portions of Sioux
ounty crops are In good condition yet , but
aln la needed badly. Nearly all crops are
n except corn , which will not be largely
planted this year. The total ncreago In the
ounty will bo one-fourth less than last
year , while the wheat and potato acreage
will largely exceed any former year. He-
cent frosts did no damage to speak of.
SHEKIDA'N.

THOMAS.
Thodford The work of putting In crops
a later this spring than usual. The acreage
s about the same as last year. Compara-
Ively not as much rain has fallen and the
continued dry weather Is causing the farm
ers to feel discouraged. Ilecent frosts did
lot do much damage.

Central Nebraska presents an unfavorable
report , as compared with former successful
crop years. The rainfall has not been gen
eral over this section. Isolated counties
iave fared better than their neighbors , and
this fact will account for the difference In
ho reports. Some of the heretofore best
counties of this part of the state are In
md shape , the lack of rain being their gen
eral complaint.
BUFFALO.
Gibbon Suffering badly for rain , especially
n the eastern half. Ground dry and small
; raln Is badly damaged. Corn Is a good
itand , but begins to show the effect of
drouth. Wheat Is a total failure. A large
icreago-of all crops was planted.
Havenna Crops of all kinds are suffering
ntensely. Hyo and winter wheat are al
ready ruined and spring wheat Is Injured
fully 30 per cent. Corn 1s up , but Is not
growing.
Elm Creole Crops In this end of Buffalo
county are In good condition , having received
a heavy rain on May G , which only extended
ten miles each way from this placa. The
acreage Is about SO per cent of former years
on account of scarcity of feed and seed ,
'rest did but little damage. The now Irri
gation ditch will bo running Insldo of ten
days.
BOONE.
Albion Small1 grain in some localities
iceds rain badly. Acreage of all
ilnds of crops larger than last year ,
'armors are somewhat anxious for rain.
The rainfall this spring has been normal.
Iccent frosts did but llttlo damage except
to gardens.
CUSTER.
Callaway Wheat that was sown early Is
not in good condition. It was set back by
the frost and there has not been sufficient
aln to bring It out. Late sown wheat looks
better , and with rain soon will make a good
crop. Oats are scarce. So far the com
crop has not suffered from drouth , but It
iceds warm weather. The acreage of corn
IB probably up to the average.
Broken Bow At the present writing Ous
ter county' needs rain badly. The western
mid southern portions of the county are
suffering the most , but In the other eighteen
townships wheat , generally speaking , looks
well. Oats will not now make more than
half a crop. Probably five-sixths of the
corn Is planted. Late planted corn Is still
waiting for moisture to sprout.
DAWSON.
Gothenburg Small grain Is dying , and In
some sections south Is past redemption.
North of us , If we get good rains In a few
days , the prospects are still good Jor an average -
ago crop. Corn Is coming up slowly , on ac
count of cold weather. Abont 'three-fourths
of the cultivated ground has been planted ,
the other fourth lying Idle on account of
the scarcity of seed. J
Cozud Ground is getting very dry and
wheat Is suffering , having been damaged by
recent frosts. Most of the wheat can hold
out a week or ten days longer , barring hot
winds. Corn Is nearly all planted and a
great deal of It is up. The total acreage of
all crops Is about three-fourths of what It
lias been for the past two years. Three of
the four Irrigating ditches tributary to this
ulaco have turned on the water this week
and the work of Irrigation for the season
has actively begun.
begun.GHEELEY.
GHEELEY.
Greeley The general outlook Is good for
all kinds of crops In this county , but we need
rain. The acreage of grain of all kinds Is
about the same ns last year. The soil Is be
coming quite dry. The rainfall has been less
since March 1 than for the same period
last year. Cut worms are reported as doing
considerable damage In some parts of the
county. Small grain , early millet and fruit
suffered sllglitly by the recent frosts.
HALL.
Grand Island The crop conditions In Hall
county are very discouraging at present.
Hyo Is beyond help and a good deal of wheat
also. Oats can Jc saved If there Is a rain. A
good many rye fields have been replanted to
corn. The acreage of all crops Is up to the
average. The frost did some damage to
grass , but It would not have been felt hod
there/ been rain.
HOWAHD.
St. Paul The acreage of crops In Howard
county Is about the same as last year , with
thrce-llfihs of the whole- planted to corn.
Most of the balance has been sowed to oats ,
wlCh a very small acreage of wheat and rye.
The rainfall has been far below the average
of former years. Sell Is getting very dry.
All crops are suffering Intensely In about
one-halt of the county und all small grain Is
practically ruined and dried out.
MEHIUOK.
Central Cliy Crop prospects are good.
Corn Is doing well , the early planted looking
a llttlo yellow , but the late good. Small
grain and pastures need rain. The rye crop
and upland hay will be short. The hay crop
on the low land Is assured. The acreage ol
corn and oats Is up to the average. Frosts
have done llttlo damage. Two and a hall
Inches of rain has fallen during the past
month.
SHERMAN.
Loup City Crops look pretty well all over
Sherman county , although the effects of the
recent frosts show plainly on wheat and on
grass on low ground. Oats , barley and mil
let look well. Corn Is not doing so well on
account of the protracted co'd weather. Sol
In this vicinity Is dry on top for tbout an
Inch , and below this moist earth Is founi
varying In depth from six to ten Inches
Since April C we have had 3.73 Inches of rain
VALLEY.
Ord So far Valley county U In pretty
good shape and compares favorably with Uie
season of 1591 at this date. If we get rain
hy June 1 we will bo practically assured o
a crop. The rainfall BO far this spring has
not been up to the average of the last ten
years. Corn Is about all up and some fields
are being cultivated. Recent frosts did bu
llttlo damage to field crops , although al
grain was checked. The general feeling Is
ono of anxiety.

avorablo for a good yield It the rainfall
rom this time on should he sufficient. Re-
ent frosts did no material damage.
CLAY.
Falrfield Acreage of all crops probably ex-
eeds that of any previous year. Light early
alns made the prospect look very encour-
glng , but we have now had no rain for six
veeks. This fact , taken with the recent
rests , has made the prospects for crops far
rom good. There Is no possibility of any
vhcat. With rain soon we may have part
f an oat crop. Corn Is still all right , and
vlth plenty of rain we might have a. larger
rep than ever before. Farmers are still
lopctul but anxlons.
Harvard The acreage of corn Is from 12 to
G per cent greater than for the average of
893 and 1801 and ls showing good color , al-
hough still small. Oats are looking badly ,
nit a good rain within ten days will make
a fair crop. The acreage of wheat Is very
Ight and the prospects for a crop only me-
lluin.

condition and could not have a better stand.
) ats are beginning to feel the effects of the
oosc dry dirt top soil , hot sun and winds ,
iut will make as good a crop as last year If
rain comes Inside of ten days. Wheat , rye
and barley will be a complete failure and so
vlll grass. The only crops for which there
s yet hope are corn , oats and potatoes. The
acreage of corn and oats will exceed the past
wo years by more than one-third. Recent
rests did no serious damage except to garden
ruck and small fruits. Potatoes were simply
ct back for the time being.
GAGE.
Beatrice The crop outlook In this county
s reasonably favorable , with the exception of
wheat. Cold weather has retarded growth of
vheat. It has headed out very low and trou-
ile Is anticipated In harvesting the crop.
With a good rain within a few days wheat
vlll yield from fifteen to Jwenty bushels
ler acre. Oats look well and promise a good
ield. Ground Is In fine condition for corn
and with a reasonable amount of moisture
a splendid crop will result.
HAMILTON.
Aurora The soil has seldom , If ever , been
n better condition In this county. There
s good moisture In the subsoil and corn
could , a.t a pinch , get along for two weeks
without more rain , but rain Is needed for
small grain. The acreage of corn Is larger
: han In any former year In the history of
.ho county , while the acreage of oats Is
also larger. Several thousand acres of
alfalfa arc In good condition. Frost did llt-
.Io damage to Hold crops , but garden truck
las suffered In some localities. Farm work
s well along. A good rain over the county
would do much good , not only to the grow-
ng crops , but to the spirits of the people.
JOHNSON.
Tecumseh Oat crops never looked better
and with favorable conditions an enormous
crop will be garnered. Wheat , too , Is gen
erally In a flno condition. Farmers are
ranking a great de l on their wheat crop ,
[ lye. barley , cane , etc. , are progressing
nicely. Corn has been retarcd somewhat by
the recent spell of cold weather , but a few
lays of warm weather will bring It out all
right. FrotHs have done but little damage ,
oven fruit escaping with but slight Injury.
Wo will have a fair crop of apples , peaches ,
cherries and plums.
JEFFERSON.
Falrbury The rainfall In this county so
far this spring Is below the average , but has
been sufficient to put the ground In good
working condition. Wheat was all winter
killed and has been largely rep'anted to corn.
The corn acreage will bo 20 per cent greater
than last year. Corn Is coming up well
and but few pieces were cut by the late
frosts. Oats are needing rain , but If It
comes within a week the prospects for a big
crop are good. The rainfall since January 1
has boon 1.73 Inches.
LANCASTER.
Lincoln The crop acreage of Lancaster
county Is fully up to that of last yea/ . There
Is a larger percentage- -corn and cats and
less wheat. Prospects for hay are excellent.
Small grain locks poorly. It Is too early to
estimate the corn outlook , as planting Is
Just completed. Early planted corn has
made slow growth , owing to unseasonable
cold weather and lack of rain. Fruits and
vegetables have suffered some from the re
cent frosts. The general feeling among
farmers Is that small grain will be almost a
total failure , but the loss will be more than
compensated by the corn crop.
NEMAHA.
Auburn We have had no rain since the
last of April , and but three good rains this
season so far , and all kinds of crops arc
suffering for moisture. We cannot now have
more than half a crop of wheat and oats.
Corn Is all planted and most of It up , but It
Is quite small yet , but most of the fields
have a good stand.

NUCKOLLS.
Superior Soil Is In fair condition , but rain
Is badly needed. Corn Is looking well , and
although some was damaged by recent frosts
It will come out all right with a good rain.
Late planted corn Is not yet up. Wheat Is
nearly all gone and oats will not make more
than two-thirds of a crop even If we had rain
at once. Farm work Is further advanced
than ever before at this time of the year.
Frosts Injured nothing but small fruits and
gardens. Corn acreage Is much larger than
In former years , while the acreage of small
grain Is smaller.
OTOE.
Nebraska City The cereal crops of Otoe
county have not been Injured by the recent
frosts and cold weather , but their growth
has been somewhat retarded. The crops un
der cultivation are looking very nicely. Rain
Is needed as badly as warm
weather , but wheat , oats and bar
ley would head out much faster and
make heavier grain It there was n good rain.
Everything depends on Immediate rain. The
total acreage Is probably one-fourth greater
than last year.
PAWNEE.
Tabl.e Rock Crops In Pawnee county are ,
on the whole , as far alopg as they were at
ihls tlmo last year , with the exception of
wheat , which was retarded hy the recent
cold , dry weather. Corn was ahead of the
season until the frosts came , but It has re
gained Its lost ground and Is now In good
condition. Oats are about the same as last
year , when we raised a large crop. A good
rain will put all our crops In splendid shape.
POLK.
Osceola Acreage of corn Is fully up to
the average. Crops of all kinds are looking
poorly by reason of cold weather and lack ot
moisture , but with plenty of rain In the near
future all will bo good. Polk county Is very
drf. Work Is well in hand and farmers
seem hopeful. Oats will not make more
than half a crop , while hay la badly damaged
by drouth.
RICHARDSON.
Falls City The dry weather In this county
has done very little damage and corn , wheat
and oats are looking well , although many
farmers say that If the dry spell Is not
broken soon the crops will he worthless.
Many farmers have finished plowing corn
for the first tlmo. More corn and wheat
has been planted this year than ever before.
The rainfall has been light In comparison
with former year The recent frosts did
little damage except to potatoes and garden
vegetables.
SAUNDERS.
Wahoo Crops are In good condition , con
sidering adverse circumstances. Small
grain Is beginning to feel the effects of dry
weather , but there seems to bo enough
moisture to keep corn from suffering. Colil
weather has retarded the growth of corn ,
but with warm rains In the near future
there will bo an abundant crop. Acreage
of all crops Is about the name as usual.
The rainfall has been less than usual , but
has been distributed at opportune Intervals
and has kept the'ground In good condition
during the entire spring. Fruit was consid
erably damaged by late frosts , but grain
did not suffer.
SARPY.
Papllllon The crop conditions of Sarpy
county are not as good as usual at this
time of the year , especially as regards umai :
grain. . Oats and wheat will be almost an
entire failure unless we get rain In a very
short time. Corn U looking fairly well

YORK.
York Corn Is not suffering for moisture
and can stand dry weather for some tlmo
yet , If It continues cool , without any datn-
ige. Oats were cut some by the frost and
are needing rain. Should we receive a good
rain within the coming week we would have
a good crop of that grain. But very llttlo
winter wheat remains In ths county , most
of It having been plowed under and re
planted to corn or oats. Soil Is very dry
Tor two or three Inches down. Below this
will be found several Inches of moist soil
overlaying another strata ot dry soil. It
Is this moistened soil between the two lay

The Republican valley seems to have suf-

almost any other section of the state. In
most of the valley counties llttlo rain has
fallen and ground Is 'tco dry for successful
cultivation. Within the past few days , how
ever , ralna have fallen In many parts "of the
southwestern portion ot the state , and ten
days hence the corn crop outlook will doubt
less show much Improvement.
' ADAMS ,
Hastings Adams county never hod a bet
ter outlook for a large corn crop than this
year. Almost every field of ccrn In the
county has had better care than ever before ,
and If wo have rain within two weeks there
will he fully as largo a crop as the county
has produced for many years. WSieat will
not yield one-third of a crop. If wo have
rain within a few days there will bz about
one-half of an oat crop. The northern part
of the county seems to report small grain
In better condition than the southern , but
the county In general Is In much better-con
dition than the people of this city believe or
will admit. Farmers subsollod more this
year than ever berore. Ground was wet
down fully twenty Int/iies early In the spring.
Although It has not rained for five weeks the
soil is still moist , but rain will be needed
soon.
CHASE.
Imperial The ground In this county Is as
dry as It Is possible to get , and , with the
exception of a few pieces , there are no small
grain crops In the county. The acreage of

above the average. The rainfall has been
about one-fifth of normal , but as the weather
has been ccol the damage to cropy has been
remarkably slight to whet might have been
expected. Rains icon would make a large
corn crop and Insure a partial yield of small
grain.
GOSPER.
Elwood Soil la very dry and rain needed
badly. Rain must come In a few days to save
the small grain. Corn Is nearly all up and
Is a good stand , but not growing very fast.
We have the biggest acreage ever planted In
thlo county. Frost did little damage to
growing crops , but fruit and gardens were
slightly Injured.
HITCHCOCK.
Trenton Corn is In fair shape , with a good
itaml , but the crop needs rain badly. In
portions of the county small grain crop Is a
total loss and farmers seem to have suspended
corn planting pending rain. The acreage Is
not more than one-half of former years. In
the western and northern parts of the county
the farmers ha\c hopes for a half crop. No
serious damage from frost Is reported In this
vicinity.
HARLAN.
Alma The' condition of all small grain is
very poor. Winter wlieat and rye will be
almost a failure , and spring vheat and oats ,
with rain within a few days , will make over
half a crop. Corn Is all right yet and will
stand It without rain for a week or so. The
acreage of wheat , as compared with last
year , is about two-thirds , and corn about the
same , or possibly a llttlo greater than last
year.
KEITH.
Ogalalla Wheat , small acreage , not lookIng -
Ing well , owing to dry weather , and some
fields did not come up. Corn , small acre

not come up. owing to the drouth. Tiie
ground Is very dry , grass Is not growing
and prospect for hay crop Is poor. Only
three-quarters of an Inch of rain has fallen
since March 1. Irrigated crops are all right ,
but are backward owing to cold weather.
KEARNEY.
MInden Thei soil In this county generally
Is very dry oed everything Is suffering for
rain. Rye Uj completely killed and wheat
partly so. Oats are suffering , but will make
a good crop , wh | | favorable showers. Corn
Is up nCierc the. . ground Is moist and looks
well. The gen ralaacrcage In Kearney county
Is up to the oVcrage. Rainfall this spring
so far has btrionp and three-eighths Inches ,
but owing to , , Ihe extreme dryness of the
ground before , the ralni commenced much
more moisture will he needed. Hcccnt frosts
did quite a .little , damage to oats , also to
corn , small , nfru' ' . and were especially
severe on garden truck.
5 rPHELPS.
Holdrege Crops' of small grain are suffer
ing now and will'not make a full crop , no
matter how riuthIt rains from now on.
Crops of corit arei In normal condition , and
the late planting seems best. The acreage
of crops piantiKt ] In this county this year Is
about the average. The recent rainfall In
this county lids leen sufficient to make crops
If the ground had been In normal condition.
The frosts the past few days have hurl the

wheat , shows the effects of the freeze , and
corn Is on the standstill.
