Hogs and Corn.

Chicago, October 15.-Complete tele-
graphic reports from the great corn
belt in the northwest show the
crop to be in very unsatisfactory con-
ditlon. With due allowance for excep.
tionel localities, the stocks of old corn in
the hands of farmers and local shippers
i'll the state Of Indiana, Missouri, Kansas
and Nebraska are unusually light, being
in many places only half and in some
but one fifth or less of tho amount or.
dinarily held at this season. Almost
everywhere the corn crop shows SUBJ
stantial falling off as compared with last
year. A shortage, as compared with last
year, OF 40 per cent. is reported from q
long list of representative points, and
while few report corn a good average,
or even something more than an average,
other reports show reduction of two
thirds or three quarters in the crop. The
result of this scarcity of old crop and
the relatively poor prospect for tho new
crop isa large falling off in the number
OF hogs being fattened for market. The
official statistics sf Indiana report $780,
2l2 hogs this year. against 2,O03,923 last
year falling off Of / per cent; but re-
ports received from the pork producing
regions generally indicate a consider
ably larger reduction. The number
OF hogs being fattened is from 25 to so
per cent. less than last year in large por.
tions of the corn and hog raising states.
In few places the recent rains benefit
ted the corn, but for the most part in
these localities awhile ago the prospect
was particularly bad. Several dispatch
es say the rain improved the corn, but
they go on to show that in spite of the
improvement the crop is short, as COM
pared with that of 1880, from 20 to 30
per cent. For the most part the rain
has done damage rather than good. It
came too lateto repair the harm wrought
by the dry weather, and when it came
there Was too much of it ard corn is
sproutins in many places as result OF
it, In the central part of this state rains
have seriously injured the corn crop.
Reports from Kansas and Nebraska are
generally better than those from this
state and Iowa, though some of the re-
ports from Kansas are particularly bad.
In Missouri there is q reduction in both
corn and hogs and reports from Indiana
differ widely, most of them indicating q
reduced yield of corn and large reduc.
ton in the number of hogs. The reports
are that hogs are much lighter than last
year, so that there is larger falling of
IN pounds of pork than on the number of
hogs.
