Corn I8 small and late and most of it has not tasseled, and with rain soon would recover largely from the effeels of the dry woather. However, with the rain the crop would generally be de- cidedly below the average. Apples and fruit gencrally have been Injured, and the hay crop will be less than expected earlier In | the season.

United States Department of Agriculture, Towa Section, Climate and Crop Service, Veather Burcau, for Week Ending July 15.—~Another week of Intense heat and se- vere drouth must be added to tha records of this exceptional season. The maximum temperatures have ranged from 100 to 103 and the general oxcess has been 7 to degrees in the dally means. The air has beeu excessively dry as well as hot, with occaslonal brisk winds adding to the in- tensity of the drouth. On the evening of the 12th a portion of the southern quar- ter of the state was favored by refresh- ing showers, which brought temporary re- lef n the dryest part of the state, The hay crop has been saved in the best condition. Harvesting has been quite gen- With varlable results as to quallty of crop, but generally the small grain crops will bo below standard weight and less than average yleld. Potatoes, pastures and Karden truck of all kinds have suffered greatest damage. Reports as to the corn crop Indleate that 1t has suffered some injury within quite 1imited arcas and on lght, sandy or hard- pan solls, but the bulk of the crop, in at least four-fths of the state, is stoutly holding its own with promise of a fair out- put. But the result Is contingent upon relief in the near future, Raspberries, blackberries have been matertally injured. WEATHER BUREAU SUMMARY Third Week of Drouth in the Central aud M3 ppt Valley States. and apples WASHINGTON, July 16.—The weather bureau's weekly summary of crop condi- tions Is as follows: Tho states of the middle Rocky mountains and Missourl and Mississippl valleys have experienced an- other, the third consecutive week of in- tense heat, the maximum temperature over a large part of these distriets ranglng above 100 dally during the week, many stations reporting from 100 to 107. With an al- most entire absence of raln the crops in the territory named have been subject to the most unfavorable conditions. In the states lylng immedlately to the eastward of the Mississippl river very high temper- atures have also prevalled, but the heat has been less intense and its effects not so serious in the districts to the westward. On the Atlantic coast very favorable tem- peratyre conditions bas prevailed with abundant rains, excessive and damaging in portions of the middle and south Atlantic states. On the Pacific coast it has been cool and dry with frost in Washington on the 12th. The corn crop as a whole in the great corn states of the central valleys has de- teriorated and has sustained serious in- jury over the western portion of the corn belt, especially In Missouri, Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma. A very larme part of the crop is late, however, and this has withstood the trying conditions of drouth and heat remarkably well and with early rains will still make a fair crop. This Is particularly applicable in lowa, Nebraska and portions of Kansas and northern Mis- sourd, The following places report rain during the twenty-four hours ending 8 a. m. July 16: Springfleld, 111, .01; Kansas City, .02; Springfleld, Mo., trace; Fort Smith, Ark., .14; Wichita, Kan., .10; Omaha, .78; Valen- tine, Neb, .18; Huron, 08; St. Paul, .30; Cheyenne, Wyo., .08. The early corn In contral and southern Missouri, portions of eastern Arkansas and in the central and western gulf tes has been irreparably injured. In the upper Ohlo valley corn, while needing rain, bas im- proved and in the Atlantic coast districts the crop has made excollent progress. Winter wheat harvest is about fimished except In the more northerly portion of the Atlantic coast district, where, in some sec- tions, it has been retarded by rain. Har- vesting bas begun in the north Pacific coast reglon under very tavorable conditions. Ovor the southern portion of the spring| spring wheat has ripened | prospect 1s | less promising than previously reported. Tn | wheat region prematurely and the general the northern portion. however, the out- louk continues favorable. Harvesting s ex- pocted to begin In northern Minnesota by July 18. In Oregon spring wheat is meed- ing rain. Oats have suffered in common with other crops from heat and drouth in the states of the central valleys. Harvest- ing I8 now progressing in the ‘more north- erly scctions. Haying has been retarded by rains in the New England and middle Atlantic states, but has made good prog- ress in the Ohlo and upper Mississippi val- leys. Tho yleld will be light in the states of the Missour! and central Mississippt v leys, but a good crop in eneral is indi- cated In the lake reglon, upper Ohio valley and extreme northwest, Except in the Car- olinas and Florida cotton is gencrally well cultivated and over the greater portion of | the central and western districts is stand- ing the drouth well, although growth has been checked and frulting at the top is commonly reported. Cotton has suffered from heavy rains in North Carolina, where 1t 1s making teo much stalk. In Georgla the prospect ls mueh below the average and many flelds have been abandoned. In southwest Texas early cotton 18 opening and some picking has been done. The week's conditions have been highly favorable for tobacco In the Atiantic coast states, but the crop 1s generally in need of rain In the Ohbio valley and 1s suffering severely in the western portions of Kentucky. The pros- pect for apples has been greatly lessened, especially over the central valleys as the result of the heat.

A verdict for the company was de- livered by & Jury two weeks ago and now the plaintiff is asking for a new trial In support of the motion the attorneys flled aMdavits of several men whose tes- timony went to discredit the sworn s ments of witnesses. During the argument it was {nsinuated that attempts had been made to bribe the jury. Judge Frost, before whom the motion came for consideration, announced that it the changes were true, it was the duty of the attorney making them to investigate thoroughly and assist in bringing the gullty persons to justice.

The official -figures give this county a valuation this year of $2,- 441,301, as against $2,342,283 last year. The increase in Cherry county was from $1,- 809,181, for last year to $1,980,648.

Not an obligation will face the citi- zens and the long period of extravagance, which plunged the city into an abyss of debt, will in its consequence be a thing of the past. Under the valuation of over $20,000,000 fixed by Tax Commissioner Alt- ken, & lovy of 10 mills will wipe from the slate every overlap, except in the fire fund, and furnish sufficient money to rum all departments without a single deficit. Such a condition is the direct result of the new tax regulations imposed by the new city charter. Depaty Game Wardens.
