We had another view of some or
corn fields and still in our
view they surely look encouraging.
They seem to be caring out finely
and many Of them look very much
as if from 40 to so bushels may be
gathered. / speak of the fields that
did not have to be planted late. A
little shower last night will give
great help to the late planting. The
outlook for this crop looks more en-
couragfng of late.
OF course our small grain is far
below the average but hay is a fine
crop and Dis harvested in good condi-
tion, and SO Notwithstanding the
season SO far we may feel encour-
aged, as Iowa has been in the past
prcspered beyond many Of her sister
states.
