LOSSES O N CROP S Excessive Moistude in South Dakota Is East Making the Situation Critical. Nothing Can Be Done in the Fields More Rain Falls in North Dakota. Special to The Journal. Canton, S. D., Aug. 28.The past three days have been most disastrous ones for South Dakota. It has rained almost contin ually and over two inches of water fell in the past forty-eight hours. The steady, soaking precipitation is well calculated to play havoc with small grain which has already suffered materially from too much rain and has be come seriously damaged. Unless the present weather changes to permanently dry conditions the splendid crops of wheat, oats and barley that were harvested, but are still in the fields unstacked or un threshed, will be completely ruined. The corn crop also is in a critical condi tion. About wo weeks of good ripening weather is needed to save the crop, while every day of rain which retards its maturity hastens it to the point of destruction by frost. If the weather turns favorable within a few days and remains so for two weeks this state will produce the heaviest corn crop it has ever had.
