low the average for series of years, and if

July was reasonable favorable east of

ONO and Indiana has advanced to a point
where moderate crop is indicated In
Iowa and Missouri the crop barely held
its own. while in Nebraska there was Il
slight falling off The NOSE severe declines
of the month were in Kansas. where there
was drop of II points: in Texas. with Il
drop of ~ pointS, and in Arkansas of IL
points. Ii the present growth of the crop
was normal the present report might be
taken as indicating a crop between $780,
coo and 19,0OO.000 bushels but in sea-
sons like the present the final rate of yield
is apt to be less than indicated by condi-
tional reports, and an expectation of over
1,SO0.O0O. 600 bushels must be based upon
entirely favorable weather conditions dur

from frost for at least ten days later than
