very beneficial. The moisture
fell all through the night and
soaked into the ground as fast
as it came down. This will
put the ground in excellent
condition and the corn will be
up in a short time, if the
weather stays warm. The peo-
pie who have their corn planted
are in great luck, and there
must be nearly 80 percent of it
in the ground. The rain was
general from the reports re-
ceived, and Nebraska as we'll
as Iowa got a good soaking.
