Tho HurllnKton'n Nebraska crop report
for tho week ending Inst Saturday, donls
with tho Hessian fly and inlnlmltes the
damage done by thp Insect. The data,
with refcrenco to the damage done by the
fly. It Is nsscrtcd. Is given out after an
exhaustive Investigation ha been made.
Kclntlvo to thp wlntrr wheat crop, tlen
eral SupcrlntenJont Allen maintains that
on tho whole there has boon no fulling
off In the gciuv.xl condition, which, on
the various division, he places ns follows,
the cstlmnte Leing on n perccntngo basis
and comparod wan former years:
Omaha division, 100 ppr cent.
Lincoln division, 102 per cent.
Wymoro division, 102 per cent.
McCook division, K per cent.
As to the Hessian fly and the damage
that It has wrought In tho Nebraska
wheat fields, the Burlington report says:
' Tho pest tn.ido Its appearance during
the week In the central and eastern parts
of Richardson and Nemnlm counties. Tho
fnlverslty Agricultural deportment has
I Investigated and reports that over this
small area, aa compared with tho entire
n.crnge of the state, fields have lieen
dumnged from very llttlo to 91 per cent,
nnd a few fields in the vicinity of Au
burn In Nemaha county havo probably
brcn damaged M per ocnt.
PI j- I'ull (iriinii.
"It Is stated by Prof. Bwrnrk, who
conducted tho Investigation and mad
the report, that the fly Is now full grown.
This means that practically no more
damage will bo dona and that the area,
of further damage, will not be extended.
The professor estimates that the yield
of wheat In these two countlos will not
fall below tho average, due largely to an
Increased acreage. With fair weather
from now on, most of tho damaged flolds
will make a full crop, but under favor
able weather conditions, would result
In nlmost n total failure. With these
facts in view, some farmers are plowing
their wheat fields within tho damaged
area nnd planting corn."
The Burlington's report Indicates that
oats nnd ifprlng whrt Is In perfect con
dition and making good progress. It Is
estimated that corn planting is prac
tically finished in Nebraska and that the
conditions for n big crop were never bet
