CROPS IMPROVING BUT SLOWLY.
A Two Billion Bushel Corn Yield Expected
by Cincinnati Authority.

The Cincinnati Price Current, which is
looked on as an authority in crop matters
reports that prospects for the corn crop
have improved moderately az compared
with month ago. and that it Is reasonable
to expect two billion bushel crop. 1t
adds that an early frost may affect the
quantity as well As quality more than
usual
The crop has been fully maintained or
has even slightly improved In condition
during the last week. but the cool weather
and rains over the northern and central
corn States have kept the plant green
with slow progress toward maturity. In
the Southern States dry, hot weather has
been moderately detrimental to its condi-
ton.
In the northwestern States heavy rains
delayed threshing and did some damage
to grain in shock, but the extent Of the
injury Is indefinite The crop is slow in
moving to market. The comparatively
light marketing in the eastern section OF
the winter wheat States reflects in degree
the moderate crop, while In the south
west offerings are free.
The offerings OF oats also reflect a mod
crate crop. Autumn ploughing has made
fair progress and the ground generally
has worked well.
