YEARS CROPS TO
YIELD BIC sum
IOWA WILL BE RICHER AFTER
HARVEST BY THREE HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS.

Des Moines, Aug. 1S.-When all the
main crops Of Iowa are finally har.
vested the state probably will be rich
er by at least $31O,351 ,372.30. At least
this is the amount which Is obtained
by adding and multiplying figures
given In government report for May,
which shows that number OF acres In
Iowa devoted to the raising Of our
various crops, and other figures based
upon the estimates Of DR.. Chapel on
the probable yield per acre, together
with market reports and predictions.
The estimated value Of Iowa crops
H.: Corn, $171,613,890; oats, $69,713,-
2s0; wheat, $16,O65,4 ,454; barley, $3,775e
1853; rye $65O,0O8.S0; potatoes, $2,457.-
492.50; hay, $56 ,076,o79.
The corn crop OF Iowa this year
amounts to 9,0S0.100 acres with 9
probable yield Of thirty-ave bushels
per acre. At not less than 81 cents
a bushel the corn crop alone, then,
will yield $171,613,S9O. This estimate
is necessarily uncertain owing to the
fact that the future OF the corn crop
depends upon weather conditions dur
ing the next two months.
Below Last Year.
1t falls considerably below the actual
yield Of last year, however, and in
case of. continuing favorable condi-
tions would prove entirely too low. 1t
is doubtful. too. whether the price at
which most Iowa famers will market
their grain will be as low as the 54
cent mark now predicted.
A tremendous oats crop from 4.665.-
100 acres is yielding forty bushels to
the acre. worth 80 cents bushel or
total Of $59,713,2SO. The wheat crop,
both winter and fall, is exceptionally
large this year, s40,36O acres being
devoted to its production. The yield
is approximately 17,462,450 bushels,
which will bring Iowa farmers $16,065,-
asa If marketed at the price Of 90
cents. Barley will yield 9,43T92o
bushels from 294,935 acres, and the
yield from this source will be $3.775,-
1853. Rye, usually an insignificant crop
in this state, will yield $650,0S8 from
42,970 acres, with an average produc-
ton of twenty-one bushels per acre.
Figures Are Uncertain.
Hay, tame and wild, will not be
quite as heavy this year In its yield
per acre DIS IL was q yCdl d6o, puI Ill
acreage will raise the total
value to considerable larger amount.
The potato yield, Nike that Of corn, is
still dependent upon weather condi-
lions, but If the 124,303 acres devoted
to this crop raise an average OF
bushels per acre, it will
bring money return of $2,451, ,492.50.
A considerable proportion of the
figures used in the foregoing computa-
lions are uncertain. Predictions con-
,erning the prices at which the pro-
iucts will be marketed are particularly |
1nreliable, owing to the constant vari- |
ltion in markets, and the impossibflity
If estimating just what effect con-
siderable increase in the supply Of
my one product will have on its total
,aiue. The estimates on wheat, rye,
BATS, barley and hay, however, are
airly accurate, as they represent the
amount at which those crops could be
marketed If thrown upon the markets.

In speaking Of the great surprise the

to give Rab the salary he wished.
Russell refused to go to the I'm. and
dropped of In Monmouth for few
days. He was soon picked up by
Manager Hough Of the Browns and
was with the home guard from the
beginning OF the season. About three
weeks ago Russell injured his right
thumb, when he made an effort to
stop hot liner and the member has
been giving him much trouble. He
was transferred from left to right
field where the chances were fewer
and he was placed at the bottom Of
the batting list. On account Of his
sore thumb he was unable to grip
the bat well and in the hitting depart
ment Of the national game he fell
quite rapidly.

BASEBALL NOTES
OF CENTRAL ASSN.

There was Just little hitting In
the circuit yesterday. Fox and Lin
derbeck of Kewanee smacked safely
three times; Hubartt OF the same
squad pulled down four hits; O'Mara

Sullivan of these parts secured three
and Turner Of Galesburg gathered IN
three himself. Just little smashing
now and then, is good for averages.

These pipe stories endeavor1ng to
show on paper who is going to win the
pennant are for the most part, bears.
It is very nice thing to do for home
scribes to boost their home teams but
picking the winner seems to be q
space filler, perhaps very good one.
Galesburg and Hannibal have plenty
lot time to come up from behind and al
though they may fail to land first place,
may beat some now favored aspirant
for the honor.
According to the Kewanee star-Cou
Ter, Coss, the new sidewheelersof the

day. He wants to look out for a fear
full drubbing because two losses IN
succession never set we'll with the

our form of government, while the
other SO simply can't agree as to what
particular man or party will best carry

wonder at his spasm of fury. He re-

FARMING.

rather unusual sight was witnessed
on Broadway at Z o'clock, when c.
F. Eggert's men drove the finest look

Or $4,000 in all. Anton Rustad super

finest punches that he has ever pro-

sumo beef fattened within the border
of their state.

and there no doubt will be large de-
mand for. it. l,fh$# T.
