THE BEE: ( MAHA, TUESDAY, JULY 20, 1915. REPORTS SAY CROPS STILL COMING GOOD. Serious Losses to Wheat in Harvest| to Be Confined to Small Districts. DORN IS COMING ALONG FINE The Burlington crop report for the week ending Saturday presents a| petter prospect than the wn(hor« sonditions would seem to allow. It| yeems certain that there wiil be some Joss in harvesting wheat, but the serious losses are confined to small fistricts, and most towns along the Ane report possibilities for a normal trop. 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 vieinity to a great extent, there béing at present about 90 per cent of the grain still standing. The Yerry does not seem to be falling as much as was expected, and with good, warm weather next week lhu srop will be harvested without much | loss.” The worse conditions along the eutire Burlington system in Netvaska are re- sorted from Strang, in Fildmore county, where but onme-fourth of the wheat is tut. Bome of (he grain alraady cut Is| wprouting In the shock, and the other threa-fourt!, of the crop not cut is being lamaged. Soon Know the Da These two reports snow what are prob- Ably the worst conditiong along the line. By the end of enother week It will be posaible to tell more accurately the ex tent of the damage done. Reporta or. oats and barley, which are | about the onty other small grains raised, nre that and that their harvest will quickly fol- low that of the wheat crop. ‘While the almost dally rains over the entire Nebraska district have held back the corn to some extent, the temperature has been ahbout normal for the seasom, and the corn has done better than dur- ing any other week since It was plantad.
