ILLINOIS CENTRAL ISSUES CROP
REPORT COVERING PAST
WEEK.
AVERAGE CORN CROP FOR
STATE 50 PER CENT
Acreage Greatly Reduced by Recent
Floods and Freeze More Than
Usual Amount Placed in siIos-other
Grains to BE Fed On Farms as Sub
stitute For corn-RaiIroads Hurt.

Dubuque, Oct. 1.-THE weekly crop
report issued by the Illinois Central
shows that the corn crop has shown
but slight progress during the past
week because Of the cool and unsettled
weather. Altho but little progress
was reported number of the fields are
out of danger of the frost and these
fields will show an average of about
Is per cent. Altho this is a fair show
ing it is not thought that the average
yield this year will go over so per
cent.
A large number of the farmers are
not leaving the corn to ripen but are
cutting 1t while it is green and using
it in their silos. A great part of the
small grain harvested this year will be
used for feeding purposes, to take the
place of corn. Very little of the grain
is being shipped as yet and the rail-
roads do not look for any big ship
ments for some time. The report fol-
lows:
With a week of cool weather, to-
gether with a heavy frost on Monday
night, as we'll as several lighter frosts
during the week, the conditions and
outlook for corn have not improved to
any extent since last report. Corn has
made slow progress, altho some of
the better fields in this territory are
now fully out of danger and these will
show an average yield of from so to 10
per cent Of normal crop However,
this does not comprise more than %
per cent Of the total acreage, and the
remainder Of the fields from present
indications will reduce the total yield,
SO that this years crop will hardly ex-
coed so per cent of an average crop in
this section, even under the most
favorable circumstances from now on.
Many farmers are cutting green corn,
using it for silage. thereby avoiding
some of the loss on account of I'M
matured crops. On account of the
frost-killed corn and good fall pas
turage, there is an abundance of rough
feed. A great deal of the small grain
harvested this year will be used for
feeding purposes in place of corn. For
this reason as well as the tendency to
hold for higher prices, grain is not yet
moving freely.

was sustained in the now celebrated
case of Duffy vs.. Tinker This is a
case for damages following collision
between team and an automobile. At
the March term it was tried and a

verdict was set aside by Judge Silwold
as excessive and not supported by the

reason. 1t is not known whether this

Council Bluffs. Oct. 11.--Mr. Farmer,
how would you like an income of $780,
900 from fifty acres of hill ground?
While no figures are given out, that
is somewhere near the income this year
of w. S. Keeline upon his tract of APP
pie trees northeast of the city. where
the harvest of the yellowish- green
Grimes Golden has been completed. and
that of the blushing Jonathans is rap
id'y nearing it's close.
Including pickers, teamsters. pack
ers and general employees. a gang of
perhaps thirty men is now being given
employment at the keeline orchard,
and they are putting the Jonathans,
just now, into barrels just as fast as
they can be handled.
There will be somewhere between
5000 and 1000 barrels of apples taken
from the orchard altogether this sea :
son, and they will all go out within a
short time now. They will make, it is
estimated by Mr.. Keeline, somewhere in
the neighborhood of thirty-five or forty
carloads.
At the Stageman orchard, a short
distance away, the estimate was made
last week of about 5000 carload, as
the price to be received for the apples,
and at the same rate, the Keeline or
chard with thirty-five carloads would
bring the owner some s10,50O. Any adj
ditional supply of apples would mean.
of course, an increase in the revenue
from the fifty acres devoted to their
culture.
Many Limbs Broken Down.
The crop at the Keeline orchard this
year has been an exceptionally good
one. and many Of the trees have limbs
that were literally broken down with
their loads of fruit. AS soon as the
crop is cleared away. the whole orchard
is to be gone over and bolts put in
where they will do the most good in
preventing further splitting of the

MOTHER COW TRAILS {
LOST CALF FIVE MILES

Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Ackley, Oct. 1.-THE COW Is not
usually credited with the nose OF
bloodhound. but that is about the only
way in which h. NJ Griggs, living five
miles west Of Ackley can explain a
curious incident which occurred last
Tuesday morning. Mr.. Griggs brought
several calves to this city at that time
and they were sold TO local live stock
dealer, who placed them in the I. G..
stock yards in the eastern part of Ack-
ley. An hcm or so later Mr.. Grisgs
left for hons and when several miles
from town met the mother of one or
the calves headed toward Ackley He
attempted 10 turn her back but was
unsuccessful and SO followed after her.
She took the various turns Mr.. Griggs
had taken in the morning without the
least hesitation, trotted thru Main
street and then branched off to the
stock yards. where having called her
offspring to the fence she calmly and
contentedly used her tongue as wash
rug thru the bars. The COW had not
seen the calf taken away and how to
explain the matter is puzzling all the
logical minds in this community.
