RUYING CORN FROM KANSAS.

Georgetown, Tex, Jan. 21.-(Special)
Thirty carloads of Kansas corn has
been received here from October to Jan
uary /, averaging 600 bushels per car,
for which consumers paid 80 cents per
bushel, and it is safe to say that as much
more will be brought in before the next
home crop natures.
The worst feature of this. importation
is that this high-priced corn is inferior to
the home article. As result Of this,
the corn acreage in this vicinity will be
greatly increased and cotton acreage re-
duced accordingly.
