Weather Crop Bulletin Aug 19 1908 Des Moines Iowa
Weather over the past week was generally favorable for field work with rapid thrashing and stacking. Warm early week followed by cooler nights, little rain in east central and northeastern districts, corn and pastures suffer for moisture, while southern to north central districts saw heavy showers and strong growth. Late planted corn on undrained fields lags behind averages, oats perform poorly but better than last year, winter wheat yields very good, fall plowing begun in moisture-rich localities.
