The great annual race between King
Corn and Jack Frost is on. 1t com
menced on the morning of September

truck in the extreme northern part of
the state was nipped. 1t will contin.
lie until the corn is thoroughly matur
ed or until heavy frost occurs which
would put an end to the race right
there and then.
1t is race for life and death on the
part of King Corn, and with the aid Of
Old Sol he may be able to get over
the line in advance of his deadly op-
ponent. Up to the present time he has
received little aid by the warm rays
Of the latter SO is badly in need of
few hot days from now until the eli
max is reached, which will be some
time during the first or second week
In October for Jack Frost is always
on hand by that time. Sometimes he
has come earlier and sometimes later
and for the benefit of the corn grow
