Weekly Weather and Crop Bulletin Reports Mixed Conditions
A cool cloudy wet week slowed field work with 7 degree average temp deficiency and frequent rainfall, especially in southern counties. Erosion damaged hillside plowed ground and flooded lowlands, but overall prospects remain encouraging as small grain potatoes and garden crops are in fine condition and corn shows an excellent stand. Weeds have started but warm sun could allow field cleaning and halt cutworms and wireworms.
