CORN TWO WEEKS LATE.
1t Will Have to Go Against Severe
Frosts.

The Iowa Grain Dealers association
has issued it's crop report for August
1. In the recapitulation the report
states that corn is about two weeks
backward, and will have to take
chances on an early frost. and that ii
has a better chance Of maturing in
the southern part of the state than in
the northern. Wheat will be mostly
low grade, being damaged by rust
blight and rains. Oats are all stained
more or less, but are mostly medium
weight Barley is all badly stained
but of good weight. Considerable
damage has been done to small grain
in the shock by rains during harvest
From this report it is estimated that
there is decrease Of IL per cent in
wheat on account of washing: of II pei
cent in oats; Of per cent In corn: Of
per cent in barley; of s per cent il
rye, and IL per cent in flax.
The estimated value for this year
is as follows: Wheat, 10 bushels pei
acre; oats, 3S bushels; corn, Al bush
els; barley, 20 bushels, rye, 80 bush
els; and flax. 10 bushels.
The government reports for las
years crop show the following to have
been the average yield per acre:
Spring wheat, 1853 bushels; winter
wheat. 17.6 bushels; oats, 32.1; corn
26.2; barley, 1873; rye, 24.2; flax, 8.S
The above estimate for the years
crops is on the acreage original.
planted, and from it should be deduct
ed the decrease from washouts ant
rains noted above.
