WHEAT TESTS HIGH GRADE | The Burlington's weekly crop re-| port. compiled from data gathered up | market continued under the influence | to and including Saturday, m\hcatea\ | that there has never been a time at this season of the year when Ne- braska crops showed more promise. The report retutes the general be- lief that no ram fell in Nebraska last week, for, with the exception of over the Omaha division ratmns were heavy and well distributed. The report indicates that the river counties sowh of Douglas received fl_'om one ty thrqt inches of precipita- tion, the heaviest bemg m Otoe county, where the raintail was from two to three inches. On the Lincoln division, rain was pretty general, the precipitation being from one-half to an inch and one-half. On the Wy- more division heavy rainfall was re- ported from most of the stations, while on the east end of the McCook division rains were general. Temperatures Are High. Temperatures were high all week, but with the large quantity of moist- ure in the ground, this was just what corn needed, and a wonderful growth resulted, many of the fields beginning to show tassels. An estimate of the corn is given in the following table: Last Previous week. .96 .9 ST Division. Omaha . Lincoln ., ... Wymore , . McCook . o 1100 100 The wheat harvest is practically over except in the northern portions of the state, where cutting is well to- ward the finish. Considerable thresh- ing has been done and it is found that the wheat is turning out 20 to 36 bushels per acre and is pratically all testing No. 2 hard. The grade, taking the crop as a whole, is the highest that has ever been known. And what is true of wheat, is also true of oats. Where threshing has been done, it is found that the yield run around forty bushels to the acre and the quantity excellent, An estimate on the condition of the wheat crop is as follows about all of the state: Last Previous District. week.

It is in good condition. Apples promise an average crop. Burlington General Manager Goes Into Fields for Crop Data,| General Manager Holdrege of the Burlington wanted to know the con- dition -of the Nebraska wheat and corn and so two weeks ago he went to the country. He traveled over the company lines in the state, went into the fields and met and talked with many of the farmers. “I have never seen such a wheat crop in Nebraska as is now being har- vested,” he asserted. “Conditions have been perfect for small grain. Wheat everywhere in Nebraska is turning out well and the quality is as good as has ever béen raised. “As to corn, it was a little late, but the warm weather of the last three weeks has worked wonders.
