UnshelIed Corn.

Corn loses One-6fth by drying, and
wheat one fourteenth. From this the
estimate is made that it Is more profta-
bic for the farmer to sell unshelled corn
in the fall at seventy-fve cents than at a
dollar bushel in the following summer;
and that wheat at $I.25 in December is
equal to 81 so in the succeeding June.
In cases Of potatoes-taking those that
rot and are otherwise together with
the shrinkage, there is little doubt that
between October and June the loss to the
owner who holds them is not less than
thirty-three DER cent.
