Corn.
MILWAUKEE, June 1O.-The annual corn
CROP review of Lindblom & Co., ofChicago,
comprises reports from nearly 1000 points
in the leading corn states, and gives COM
prehensive review of the corn situation.
The condition of corn is generally very
GOOD. There is large increase in the
acreage planted this year, especially IN the
winter wheat states, where THOUSANDS OF
acres OF ruined wheat have Deen ploMs" up
and planted in corn. The damage done py
cold weather and rains in May and the
latter part Of April appears to have
Amounted in mos cases to but little more
than the delaying Of planting ana
the retarding of the growth OF grain. Aitef
Wanting. warm bright weather came Just IN
lime to do its work. Had 1t peen delayed
ten days longer the result wouid nave peer,
disastrous. As 1t is. there Is pIEm.se eh %

aections where. because of the poor quallty
~ seed or the bad condition OF the soil, the
corn Aid not come up, o full acreage mas IN
nearly ali cases been replanted. Inc state
