CROr SOMEWHAT BACKWARD IN IOWA Ilaln In the Cotton Belt la a Help to the Late Crop, but Damage to that Sow Ripen lug. WASHINGTON, Sept. . Following Is the Agricultural department's weekly summary of crop conditions: Although the week was cool In the cen tral valleys and lake region, with more than the average rainfall in portions of the upper Mississippi valley, maturing crops have made generally favorable, though not rapid, advancement. The greater part of Texas, In which state severe drouth pre vailed at the cIobb of the previous week, has received abundant rainfall and drouth conditions In the middle Atlantic coast dis tricts have alao been largely relieved, but the Interior of the middle Atlantic states, Ohio valley and portions of the lower lake region and south Atlantic states continue to need rain. Light to heavy frosts were very general In the northern districts from Montana to New England and the middle Atlantic states from the 3d to the 6th, with but alight In Jury. Rain Is much needed In Washington and Oregon, but otherwise the general condi tions on the Pacific coast were favorable. Corn Crop In Hood Condition. Notwithstanding the prevalence of low temperatures throughout the corn belt and copious rainfalls in portions of the Missis sippi valley the corn crop has made very satisfactory advancement toward maturity and wholly escaped injury In the states ! eastward of the Mississippi river from ! frosts occurring on the 4th and 5th, with j but slight injury in the states to the west I ward. I The bulk of the corn crop in Missouri I and Kansas and much of the early planted in Nebraska and the states of the Ohio val ley are now safe. In Iowa, where corn has I ripened very slowly, two-thirds of the crop I will probably be safe by September 20 and the balance will require ten days longer. The threshing of spring wheat although further retarded, has made more favorable progress than In the previous week. Rnln In Cotton Belt. Texas and large parts of the central and eastern districts of the cotton belt have received abundant rainfall during the week, but It Is doubtful whether the beneficial elfeots of th?se tains to late cotton will offset the Injury done to the open staple. In the states cf the upper lake region the reports respecting apples are favorable, while those from New York and New Eng land are variable, Indicating a very light crop in some sections,- with plentiful yields in others. In the Ohio valley and most of the middle Atlantic s atrs the outlook con tinues very poor. Plowing for tall seeding has made n,ore favorable advancement In the soutl.crn H-.elen and Missouri vslley, but in the Ohio valley and portions of the middle Al'in- tic states snd lake region the soil is too dry j for this work SARGENT NO UJNGER MASTER Realign na Head of Firemen In OrJIer to Give Whole Time to Office In Washington.
