tai increase, 1904 O00.-Prime says that he
has been in Nebraska for a whole week, and
he comes back with these facts, as the result
of interviews with elevator men and grain
men, farmers and lots of people directly or
indirectly interested in the crop: Corn
is short. Much shorter than was generally
supposed before gathering it commenced. AS
result of this journey he condenses the
whole situation into this: Not 5000 blu new
corn in crib from Lincoln to Hastings. Old
corn going out very slowly, never saw sin
gle load of new corn being hauled to market
from Lincoln to Hastings, country roads are
simply perfection, but the new crop is in the
hands of the farmers, and will not be sold
this winter below Gee. Thirty per cent of tho
corn is yet to husk. Farmers are just be-
ginning to realize the shortage of the corn
crop.
