Degradation by Rust and
Rank Growth.

The excessive rains OF the past week
have worked much damage and delay to
the corn in that part of Nebraska lying
south of the Platte river. according to A
H. Bewsher, secretary and treasurer of
the Nebraska State Grain Dealers as
sociation. MIR. Bewsher has just returned
from a trip through the South Platte coun-
try and his estimates are based upon OBJ
servations of the fields, and from con-
versations held with grain men along the
route. He found that wheat, rye and oats
have suffered little and are in fine condi-
ton, subject, however to degradation by
rust and rank growth IL the wet weather
is long continued. Another seven days like
the week just closed will cause untold
damage to these smaller grains, in his
opinion.
Concerning the corn, he estimates that
20 per cent of the 100000 900 bushels grown
south of the Platte had been seeded. Half
of this amount, he thinks, was washed
out by the downpours and will have to be
replanted. Reseeding may be done as late
as June 10 without harm. provided there
are no early frosts to nip the young
cereals later in the year. But fully 65 per
cent of the planting remains to be done.
and II win necessitate more or less clear
weather to accomplish It. The cold has
not yet interfered with termination or
early growth to any appreciable extent,
but will IL there Is not a change for a
higher temperature.

Outlook for Corn.

OF the corn grown in Nebraska. accord
ing to the statistics of the state exchange,
considerably more than one-half is raised
south of the Platte river. In this section
the corn outlook is anything but encourag-
ing to the farmers and dealers in grain.
With only IS per cent Of the seed corn
safely ensconced in the ground it is going
to be fight with nature to get the re-
mainder in IL the abnormal dampness does
not lessen. Therefore the south state egri-
culturist 10 in an anxious frame of mind
He IL not greatly worried about his rye.
oats and wheat, because they have q fair
chance against pretty bad conditions and
the prospect for marvellous careers II
nature allows her face to clear. A red hot
sun after 30 much rain, however, would
breed a lot of insidious rust among the
small grain and is a contamination de-
voutly hoped against.
The effect Of the conditions in the great
corn producing states was shown yester-
day by the sudden jumps in the corn quo
tations, the markets forging from to
cents. Wheat also felt the pressure Of the
discouraging weather and climbed 3 cents.
The day was one of anxious inquiry among
the grain dealers and the chief talk heard
about the quotation boards was concerning
the effect the wet weather was having
upon the grains of various kinds.
