ABERDEEN, 8. D.. June 16.-(Speclal.)-Wlthln the last few days the crop reports from northern South Dakota, hitherto ex tremely optimistic, have taken a turn for the worse, and present reports over a wide range of country indicate that small grain will be a very short crop, although corn Is looking extraordinarily well. The explanation given by farmers for the sud den collapse of prospects that were deemed excellent Is that, the dry weather of last year, which extended well Into this spring, left the ground exceedingly dry. . The grain, when it started to grow, had little moisture in the ground to draw from and rooted' very short. ' When the rains did come, and there has been an abundance of the northern part of the state, from Brown county eastward since late spring, the grain made an excellent showing, growing rapidly and of good stand. But when the dry, scorching, hot weather followed, the growing grain showed its lack of stamina because of the short root, drying up rap Idly. In the vicinity of Huron, according to re ports, the small grain crop Is apparently almost a failure. A better showing Is made in the vicinity of Redfleld, but east of there the yield Is again light. The grain araln shows better In northern Spink and southern Brown county, but north of Aberdeen to the North Dakota line and beyond, and eastward for a con siderable distance, the yield Is light, and reports from sections In Edmunds county Indicate a light crop. West of the Missouri liver, In the newly settled sections ot the state, conditions vary. In some parts ot the reservation country local rains have given the home steaders hope for practically a full crop. In other- parts the crop will be verv short. The . corn crop, however, Is showing a good stand and a good color and Is appar ently In good condition. Culp-Langworthy Clothes Shop Corner Store . ' New wty National HanK Uulldin?
