All our re- ports show an abundance of moisture and state that freezing temperatures have occurred nearly every night. Seeding will be general all over the territory by the latter part of the week if we get fair drying weather. Information we have received in- dicates that in southern Minnesota and South Dakota approximately 75 per cent of the wheat and 20 per cent of the coarse grain seeding has been | reach the northern parts of North Dakota and Minnesota and all of Montana, where practically no sced- ing has been done. Our information would indicate that there will be practically no dif- ference in the bread wheat acreage this year as compared to last year, al- though there will be a considerable decrease in durum and rye acreage. There seems to be an increase in the flax acreage reported, generally, throughout North and South Dakota and Montana, with a considerable in- crease in barley reported from many districts. The condition of the winter] py wheat and rye is practically un- changed from our last report, the condition’ remaining good. Considerable moisture was received in Nebraska and Kansas the latter part of last week, which was of great help to the dry top-soil, and our re- ports from these two states are ex- Tune in on Co. day’s special.
