The Louisiana Corn Crop.

TUE government corn reports issued under
date of July 8, report an increased acreage 'h'S
voar in Louisiana in corn to the extent OF IL per
cont. and the condition at 1874 per cent. as
against a 10 year average and 3d. as against
last wear at 1878. We may therefore say that
the outlook for corn in Louisiana is better than
il has ever been before the increased area con-
sidered and that the 2, SOC, 900 acres that are IN
corn this year will produce a crop OF thai cerea'
worth 20 or 40 millions of dollars to the people
of the state.
It is interesting to note that while of the ia
million acres of corn in the United States tins
wear only $50 millions are growlngln LOUISIANA
all the rest of the Southern States stand above
the two million mark, as Georgia has 4.W MIL
lion acres planted and Texas about . millions OF
acres planted in corn. While Texas ranks so
very high, the state is surpassed by both iowa.
with its 9, 80 million acres and Illinois with its
n. 20 million acres. In regard to corn culture,
# is q notable fact that for many years Loulsl-
ana has been getting very large quantities or
corn from Nebraska. We note that Nebraska
has 2 little over 8 millions of acres OF land plant
ed in corn and it is recognized as one OF the
chief corn producing states. Nebraska, now
ever, has but a very limited rainfall, only some
q inches, whereas our annual rainfall is ABOUT
60 inches.
The cultivation of corn in Louisiana is not 50
easy as it is in the great prairie states OF the
Northwest, where floods are rare and flat cul'
ture very practicable. We have noted tna'
some of our corn planting experts nave recently
stated their confidence in fiat land planting IN
this state. The rainy condition of the country
now and the vast areas that are under water
because of the frequent heavy showers teach a
very suggestive lesson in regard to the moods
and flat planting in this state. Ridge planting
or row planting can be made very successful
here and with adequate ditching and quarter
draining the surplus waters can be conducted
away rapidly enough to prevent injury to corr
crops, although hardly as much can D.
said for the peas and peavine crops wh'c'
so generally 60 with corn culture II
our state. The peavine is very susceptible I
injury BY water and sometimes a single day
inundation is sufficient to kill the vines.
Reverting again to the relative production o
corn. it looks odd to see that Virginia only gro"
but little over two millions of acres of corr
while Michigan, which is largely a glacls
moraine, or gravel bed. produces about tn
same acreage. OF course Virginia has scores Q
other crops, but so has the State OF Michigan
The soil of Virginia, however, is thought gene
ally to be better than that of the State of Mlct
ipan and more conducive to the production
good corn crops, but apparently not sufhclent
attractive in that direction to enable Old VI
ginia to reach up in culture even to Lou's'an'
and much less to Arkansas and the other stat
that rank up toward the three million acre III
and above.
