Corn has made marvellous growth in
Southern Minnesota during the past
three weeks, and where planted rea-
sonably early, is now well tasselled
and nicely leaved. The backward
season was a splendid thing for the
corn as it gave the roots chance to
grow and develop so that when the
warm weather came on it had a heal
thy, strong stalk.
Warner Baker brought to this Of
flee today stalk of sweet corn from
his farm in Rapidan which measured
nearly eight feet, well tasselled, and
contained two ears of corn. Three
weeks more of such weather as we
have had will ripen it.
