REPORTS SAY CROPS
STILL COMIHG GOOD
Serioni Lossei to Wheat in Harveit
to Be Confined to Small
Diitricts.
CORN IS COMIUO ALONG FINE
The Burlington crop report for the
reek ending Saturday presents a
tter prospect than the weather
renditions would aeem to allow. It
wins certain that there will be some
!og In harvesting wheat, but the
lerloua losses are confined to email
llstrlcts, and most towns along the
,1ne report possibilities for a normal
rrop. The agent at Vesta, near
Tecumseh, reports that "the contin
ued rains of the last week have hin
dered harvesting the wheat crop In
this vicinity to a great eitent, there
being at present about 90 per cent
f the grain still standing. The
erry doea not aeem to be falllngas
much as was expected, and with
food, warm weather next week the
crop wlU be harvested without much
loss."
The worse conditions along the eutlre
Burlington j-tm In Xsttsstta ar re
tried from Strang-, In Kll?more county,
s-here but one-t'iurth of the wheat is
cut. Borne of Ihe groin airiady cut Is

Partly because of tha constant ralna and

Features and meadows are In splendid

unlimited supply of feed, and the mead

Prosperity's Sake '
Let's all help to keep money circulating-in Omaha-buy Omaha-made goods.
Not especially because you are a good, loyal citizen, with your share of civic
pride, but because you have a stake in Omaha's prosperity.
There is no self-sacrifice involved in buying Omaha-made goods. Sheer merit
and value for value warrant buying them for entirely selfish reasons.
You will be surprised to see how Omaha manufacturers will meet you half-way
with attractive offers and a direct service virtually at your door.
Everything else being equal, it is greatly to your own personal interest to give rea
sonable preference to Omaha-made goods when you are about to make a purchase.
"SMILO
OMAHA CATCHES UP
ON ITS MINFALL
Deficiency Which Hai Been Marked
Up Since. March First Has Now
Been Oyercome.
EXCESS SINCE FIRST OF YEAR
"Ml bet my head against a ten
penny nail that there'a not a person
In Omaha but thinks we have had
much more than the normal amount
of raid thla year," said Colonel
Welsh of the weather, bureau.
Probably never before have such
great odds been given on a bet. But j
the colonel la ao aure of the fact that I
ha unhesitatingly makes the state
ment. And, up to the time of going
to press, no one has "taken him up."
"People csll up all the time." he said,
"asking whether the rainfall flgurea pub
lished In The Bee are really correct. They
tan't get away from believing that the
excess of rainfall over normal murt be
greater, t'p until today there wss really
a dericlenrv. 'We had less than the nor
mal amount of rain alnce March 1. Thla
was due to a deficiency In June of l.K
Inchea and a deficiency In April of 1.30
inches.
abort laae,
"June Is our grestest rainfall month,
with a normal of B.06 Inchea. Thla year
in June we got only ill Inches, leaving
tue deficiency, aa atated, at 2.22 inches.
"Theae 'normal' rainfall figures are
gained from averaging up the rainfalls
for each month during thirty-six years.
"This year In Omaha we have not had
any excessive rains with the exception of
July 12 when we got 214 Inches.
"It Is probably from reading about
really excessive ralna at points nearby
that people get the Impreselon that we
have had more rain than usual. Thla was
lsrtlcularly true In the aouthwestern part
of tho atate. There was one point In the
Republican valley where they had eleven
Inchea of rain In one month." '
Large fall of S mow.
During tne nrst three mnnlhs of this
year there were marked escesses of pre
cipitation, principally In the form of
anow. This Is responsible for the fact
that the exceaa of precipitation figured
from January 1 Is now I.S0 Inchea. The
following flgurea show the actual precip
itation In Inrhea for each month; the nor
mal or average precipitation, the defic
iency or exoeaa during sny one montii
snd the accumulated excess of precipita
