WHEAT CROP STATISTICS
COUNTY ASSESSORS ARE REPORTING
TO S~TATIsTICIAN JOHNSON.
Returns from Forty-One In
dictate that the Crop VIII BE
from 30 to 100 Per Cent.

State Statistician Johnson Is rapidly re-
ceiving crop reports from county assessors
OF Indiana for the month of May. Last
night he had returns from forty-one coun-
ties. as follows: Wayne. Pike. Miami. Hen
ry, Marion, Noble, Randolph, Putnam. Jen-
nings, Jay. Toward, Clinton. Clark. Brown.
Cass, Hancock. Fayette, Fulton, Boone,
Blackford. Dubois, Decatur. Kosciusko.
Huntington. Jasper. Marshall. Daviess.
Ohio. Posey, Orange. Newton. Laporte. ia
grange. Wells. Vigo. Vanderburg, Upton,
Shelby and Spencer.
Inasmuch as these counties are pretty
we'll scattered over the State the s~tatisti-
clan thinks the reports may be safely used
as the basis for an estimate of crop con-
ditions of the State. Taking wheat, for ex-
ample. the reports show tina in most OF
the counties named the crop will be from
30 to 100 per cent. The loo per cent. is the
basis for a full crop. Counties that show
a lighter crop than this are: Noble. Is;
Putnam. IS; Jennings. so: Howard. 60; Gin
ton, so; Clark. so; Cass. 20; Dubois. 50; Jas
per, 70; Orange, 70; Laporte. 30; Wells. 50;
Upton, So. The fruit crop is uniformly ex-
ceilent according to the forty-one reports
thus far received.
H. B. Sans, assessor of Miami county.
says the corn crop Will De OILY ~ per cent.
of a full crop In his county. His report
says: Prospect very discouraging; back
ward, cold. wet spring" Mr.. Johnson said
concerning this lugubrious report: "A few
days of bright sunshine will bring a smile
TO that assessors face once more"
Marion Eaton, assessor OF Marion county.
reports that corn is late and the chances
of a good crop are poor. He estimates the
crop now at 60 per cent.
W. f. Murray. assessor or fayette coun-
Nv. nuts the timothy crop at 80 per cent.
and saws the low condition OF this crop is
attributable TO the large growth OF white
top.'' which has entirely taken many
meadows clover is suffering from the same
cause. he adds. Fruit buds are falling of
badly In some localities of Fayette county.
William II. kuper, assessor or Dubois
county, says I'm a note appended 10 ms crop
report: ''The percentage OF wheat may yet
go lower on account OF ny. we all had
Imposed tina the fly. woulc do but little
damage on account or the cool April. but
a, is showing more every day. The re-
mort estimated the wheat crop at ~ per
cent.
Sherman White. assessor OF Newton
oo,,ntv renorts that no wheat Is planted
IN his county this season. He says the
corn crop is uneven on account or drought
snd thai Moving is very "cloddy.'
The sfatIstician thinks the crop reports
sor Nav are fully up TO the encouraging
Va,dard of those received for the month
- All He feels confident that Indiana
vsp make a splendid showing this season
in both cereal and fruit crops.
