Larsa Corn Crou.

The following is told by a Reading
special OF Sunday; The farmers are
now bringing In tha figures OF their
extraordinary corn crop. The yield
was undoubtedly the largest In the
history Of the Schuylkill or Lebanon
Valleys, Last year 80 to 40 bushels to
the acre was considered a very good
crop. This year many farmers have
been reporting that they raised 60 to
20 bushels TO the acre. >. j. Hill, OF
Ruscomb Manor township, says that he
housed s5 bushels to the acre, and his
neighbors, James Mertz and Francis
Hickman, that they raised nearly 80
bushels to the acre. Isaac s. Long, of
the firm Of s. S. Long Il Brc., butter
and egg merchants, of New York city.
owns one of the finest farms in tho
Lebanon Valley. near Richland.
Before the farmers of Ruscomb Man
or township had made their reports
public he had staked Off his land plant
ed with corn into acres. One acre was
then husked by j. w, Sechiist In nine
hours and five minutes. This acre
yielded, according to the report sub
mitted by Mr.. Long. who personally
attended to the measurement OF
the crop, 96 bushels of shelled
corn. III was considered a wonder
full yield and had never before been
reached in this section Then all the
champion corn huskers from the diff
ferent townships came forward and
gave the time in which they had huslted
an acre of corn, and many dlscredited
that an acre with snch heavy yield
could he husked In the time named.
MIR. Long ataked off another acre,
and this was husked, according to a
number OF witnesses, by John Wag-
ner i'll hours and 81 minutes, while
the acre yielded exactly 100 bushels and
IA pounds. This record stood Gnchal-
lenged for some time until ex-County-
Commissioner William G. Moore has
now come forward, and the record of
his farm In Marion township, in corn
raising, stands so far undisputed. He
reports that his IA acres OF corn land
yielded on an average 100 bushels and
that one acre which he measured on
realized the extraordinary quantity OF
1905 bushels.
In Obey township several farmers
claim that they got 90 bushels to the
acre. In these unusual yields the obs
measured 10 and Is inches long, and
weighed two pounds and over.
While some farmers have had such
Immense corn crops, it Is estimated
that the average was over 45 bushels
to the acre. Owing to the great yield
persons have been in great demand for
hnskinG, and in some places farmers
have not yet finished this work because.
