Weather Crop Bulletin May 11 1908 Des Moines Indiana district
For the week ending May 11 1908 Des Moines Indiana the low temperatures persisted into the first half of the week frost was reported on several mornings in northern stations and the latter part turned warmer though the average was below normal. The week was cloudy and wet with copious cold rains on the 4th and 5th. The last three days brought warmer weather with showers on the 10th and 11th. Field work slowed by moisture but the crop moisture is needed, especially in the south. Late reports show damage to plums peaches early cherries and early apples in southern and central districts but the crop remains fair overall. Northern districts saw slight damage limited to early varieties of cherries. Some oats damage noted but likely recoverable with moisture and higher temperatures. Corn planting has begun nationwide and will expand as weather allows.
