All present conditions indie ite
that Beveral Important crops'
will bo nearlj* as good as the wheat
harvest this year, in the United
States. Hay, ono of the greatest
crops of the country, is above its
ten-year average in promise. Oats,
also, show a gain over the averag*
of the last decade, as far as the
yield of that grain can be foretold
in. early June. Barley, an import
ant crop, especially in thrye or I
four great states, is 0 per cent j
above the average Juno condition
of the last ten years. Alfalfa, a!
staple for feeding livestock, is more
than 8 per cent better than the i
usual June condition.
Fruits make a fine showing. Ap
ples, pears, peaches, cantaloupe*,
raspberries and blackberries are)
all above the average condition at
this time of the year. Sugar beeis,
a staple in many districts, are 'j j
per cent better than the ten-year
average!" Coru, of course, is not j
