 today to what extent the general crop 

 has been injured. The drought still con- 

 tinues, so that the sample is liable to be 

 good ; that is, clean. Of course beans 

 will be undersized on account of the dry 

 season. ' ' 



NEBRASKA SEED CROPS. 



J. C, Robinson, Waterloo, Neb., set 

 down the following summary of the 

 condition of seed crops in his territory 

 September 11: 



"The cantaloupe and cucumber crops 

 in eastern Nebraska are a total failure. 

 In the Waterloo district there will not be 

 a pound of seed harvested. In the cen- 

 tral and western part of the state there 

 will be a few crops that will make from 

 twenty-five to seventy-five pounds of cu- 

 cumber seed to the acre. 



"Few watermelons are grown in the 

 immediate vicinity of Waterloo, owing 

 to the low price at which they have been 

 selling. Our watermelon district will 

 give us some seed of this class. 



* * The squash crop will be light, as well 

 as pumpkins, but there will be some crop. 



"Corn of all kinds, including sweet, 

 flint and dent varieties, will average 

 about seventy-five per cent of a normal 

 crop. Some varieties will be filled in 

 full, while the delivery on others will 

 fall as low as twenty-five per cent. The

WM. EMERSON'S VIEW. 



William Emerson, manager of the 

 Western Seed and Irrigation Co., Fre- 

 mont, Neb., writes in part as follows, 

 September 14 : * * We can not give actual 

 figures on crop conditions just at this 

 time. The different localities in Ne- 

 braska where different growers have 

 sweet corn grown are subject to different 

 conditions, and the character of the soil 

 and position of the farms vary to a large 

 extent. It is therefore easy to under- 

 stand that the reports from the different
