CORN PALACE AT STATE FAIR

angle ia the new Corn Palace, patterned
somewhat after the famed Corn Palace
in Columbia, s. {. IT was learned last

COTTON CROP SUMMARY FOR
WEEK ENDING AUG. goth.

Deterioration in greater or less de-
gree is reported throughout the cotton
belt. In the Atlantic states and in the
Mississippi valley as well, where cotton
has heretofore maintained its status or
has suffered but slightly, losses are re-
ported from shedding and by reason OF
excessive heat and lack of rainfall.
The PERCEPTION for three weeks has
been irreguraly distributed and gener-
ally ms efficient to maintain the plant
in full thrift. More serious complaints
are received from Alabama and states
eastward than at any previous time.
However there are some good reports
coming from districts where showers
have been abundant.
In Texas and Oklahoma and a part OF
Arkansas the plant has shielded quite
heavily and little remains except bolls
more or less matured, and these are
now opening quite rapidly. In Texas
such large percentage of the crop has
opened that any bevfit frort rains in
the way of stimulation to the plant
would be offset in injury to grades II
the rain were accompanied by wind or
was of long duration.
In Mississippi and Louisiana boil wee
wills are very numerous and are dong
much greater damage than has been
heretofore reported In southern Tex
as also it is unlikely that a full crop
can be matured because of their pre-
sence.
A condition percentage made up at
the end of the week would be some
points lower than similar figures seven
days ago.
NORTH CAROLINA There was no
marked change in the crop. General
showers furnished enough moisture
early in the week. There are com.
plants however of some shedding and
of diversified stalk that is either MOI
well fruited or has much young stuff.
SOUTH CAROLlNA-some retro
gression in crop. Rains very spotted

ious shedding where Still dry and few
