Of This State. !.
SOME SOWING DELAYED
Indications That Corn VIII
Make IS. 8 Per Cent of a
Crop-Hog Shortage.

Missouri farmers in general -profited
by the weather conditions in Septem.
Der. The report Of the state board of
agriculture issued yesterday says that
in some parts Of the state the rain has
delayed the sowing of wheat but that In
most localities the fall work is pro-
crossing rapidly. No frost has been
reported thus far.
The condition of corn. for the state,
| is 1878, as compared with 81 one month
ago, 6S.S ono year ago, and 1875 as
the ten-year average. ] But these fig
ures do not justify too much optimism,
for an early killing frost would yet
Iplay havoc with thousands of acres Of
late corn. There is need of plenty
of sun and warm weather. The corn
crop is more spotted" than for mum.
Der Of years. Some fields with bump
er crops are safe from all danger;
while others, which had to be planted
a second or even third time, owing
to the cold, wet spring, are showing
much green corn, which at best is
likely to be soft, immature and In poor
market condition. It is estimated that
70.6 per cent of the crop is now safe
from frost as compared with 9O.8 on
October 1, of last year. The part har-
vested for fodder is given as 1854 per
cent, as compared with 1873 per cent
last year. Much corn is down and too
badly tangled to cut, Scarcity of farm
labor is also factor in the fodder
proposition. Correspondents report
more silos being filled than ever be.
fore. --: 80.
October l finds 46.6 per cent of the
wheat crop in, as compared with SO
per cent one year ago. Condition of
soil for seeding is S7.6, and the prob
able acreage as compared with last
year is estimated at 9S.7 per cent. In
some localities rain has delayed wheat
Sowing, while in others where the Hes
sian fly was bad last season, farmers
have preferred to seed ground later
Wheat that is up is starting off in fine,
fshape.
1t is probable that the acreage of
both timothy and clover threshed for
seed will be considerably less than
last year, but it is yet too early to give
definite figures.
Live stock is generally reported
thrifty and free from disease. There
have been only few serious outbreaks
OF cholera among hogs and less than
the usual number of cases of the or
binary diseases among horses, cattle
and sheep. The condition of all hogs
as to thrift and health is placed at
s5.s-a very high average. There is
still big hog shortage throughout
the state. The number of hogs on
farms as compared with October 1 of
average years is estimated at only
$751;, with brood sows only 70 per cent
OF normal number.

old Star Theater in "Odette" more than
twenty years ago. At one time she was
