After the subsistence of the June
floods on the Neosho, thousands Of
acres that were Hooded were planted
to corn. OF an ordinary year there
would not be much expected of the
crop bnt a good lot of fodder, but this
unusually favorable year the corn grew
rapidly and promised a fine yield of
corn, but the floods came again this
week and last and spread over much of
this same ground and destroyed the
crops the second time This is truly
hard luck for our bottom farmers.
Much hay In the stack and winrow
was also destroyed. While the rains
this year have been hard on the far
mers on the low grounds, they have
developed wonderful crops on the up
lands, and Kansas will gather an i'm.
mense corn crop.
