CORN is ABOVE AVERAGE.
Crop Now Mature Equals Average for
Past Fifteen Years.

Already Iowas corn crop is equal to
the average for the past fifteen years
and from this date on. all that ripens
is velvet" In a special crop bulletin
issued yesterday Director J. r. Sage
declares that IS to 80 per cent of the
state corn crop is well matured. The
bulletin reads:
Following heavy showers on Sept. IS,
which caused some local damage in
western districts, the past week
brought six days Of ideal weather for
the belated portion Of the corn crop.
The daily mean temperature has been
three to five degrees above normal in
the larger part of the state, and since
Sept. 10, the sky has been practically
cloudless. Good progress has been
made in threshing, fall blowing and
cutting corn. Reports indicate that
more than the usual acreage of corn
will be put into shock in the central
and western districts. In all the best
corn districts of the state, where the
crop received timely cultivation, it is
practically safe. For the state at large
SIS to 80 per cent is now well matured.
The immature portion needs frostless
weather fer the balance Of the month.
and probably some of it little be-
yond. Conservatively estimated, the
amount of corn now mature is fully
equal to the state average for the past
fifteen years
