THE OHIO CROP REPORT.
Comparing FAVOrabIy With That of
Last Year.

CoLrNErs, o.. September 27.-The Ohio
crop report for September is out, and the
estimates contained in ii are based on go
returns from township correspondents,
and on records OF actual threshing by over
1000 machines in all parts Of the State.
The principal totals and averages are as
follows:
Wheat-ACres threshed to date, 39j, NC;
bushels produced from the same, 1888, ,S64;
aversge per acre, 10 bushels OH acreage har-
vested, but only bushels on acreage
shown; probable total of wheat at same
rate, "a, ,43l $40, against 45 i5O,0 900 last year.
The estimate for wheat is made by multi
plying the yield per acre in each cVunty as
ascertsined by the machines, by the known
acreage sown last fall, less 10 per cent. al
lowed for winter killing.
Oats-Acres threshed, 5g,6i5; bushels
produced from same, l,9iGuj9; average
yield per acre, 80 Clio bushels; probable to.
tai at same rate, 29,SS9,OO0 bushels, against
1885, 600 bushels last year. The total for
oats is found in the same way. except that
10 per cent. is added to the acreage last
years for known increase.
The Present Condition
of other crops, compared with full average
crop or condition, is as follows:
Corn, - per cent. potatoes, liz; sweet
potatoes, ~; tobacco, 50; sorghum, 50; clio.
yer for seed, s.; apples, %; peaches, 81;
grapes y. The hay crop is very large, and
pastures have been excellent till within
two weeks, but now are drying up some
what Wheat is half crop and apples
hardly q quarter crop.
The frosts hsve greatly damaged the
corn fodder, and this will naturally raise
the price of hay, which was most a5und'
ant crop
North of the latitude of Columbus the
damage 70 the corn itself as well as to the
fodder is very great. South Of that lat'
tude the best of the corn was already sum
GENTLY mature to ripen in spite OF the
frost. ON the whole, it will be a low esti-
mate to Say that The frosts will diminish
tine crop of the Slate 20 per cent. from
what it would have been il frosts had held
oil for two weeks, and warm weather with
warm nights bad continued. This is a
very serious loss to the farmers, especially
taken in connection with the very short
crop of wheat and fruit. Oats, hay, pota-
toes and pasture, however, are above the
average.
