a lively brush in the competitive mar
kets of Europe, but the American farm
er has believed himself practically Sc
cure in his supremacy in the raising Of
Indian corn, or maize. However, he will
now have to look to his laurels, for the
great grain growing country of South
America has entered the field and is rap
idly coming to the front with big yields
from her vast farms. According to sta
tistics prepared by the Argentine de-
partment of agriculture, the only ones
available, 3,473,722 acres were planted
in corn in 1901, and the total yield was
S4,01S, 2G5 bushels, or an average of "a. Is
bushels per acre. OF this crop the GUS
tom house statistics show an eXporta-
ton of 46,843, 282 bushels. Owing to
the system of preparing these statistics.
this amount is probably slightly in ex
cess of the amount actually exported,
but only slightly. This crop was grown
between September, 1901, and March,
1902, and so per cent. of it was mar
