claims Of damage range from nothing to
q per cent on bottom lands and late
corn.
Chicago udahy brokers selling wheat
Liverpool = Corn closed unchanged;
wheat Ia lower: markets quiet.
Mcintyre & Marshall's weather report
says:
Frost was general Friday night in the
West. north of Springfield, Ill. The tenn
pera;ure is now rising, and the wind has
changed to south, SO that the end OF the
cold Wave IS in sight.
THE Iowa State crop report says that
two-th.rds OF the corn in that State is
nearing maturity, and there there will be
an aDnormally large percentage Of soft
corn if any killing frost occurs before
October list The Illinois report says that
the bulk of the crop would be safe by
September 10Th. unless heavy frost
comes
]. S. Bache & Co. say: frost has done
no damage to corn in Kansas and Mis-
souri,; that is certain. Some damage may
have been done in Northern Iowa, now
that that State has more good corn than
she ever raised in one year before. Sew
enty-five per cent. of the Nebraska corn
is out of the way: other TWENTY-FIVE per
cent. is not injured over 10 per cent The
damage altogether won't reduce the pros
