BIG BROOM CORN CROP
S. ID. Flora Says Farmers Will Reap
Rich Harvest This Season.

Old Mother Goose with her flying
broom will have nothing on the farm
ers of southwestern Kansas as soon
as their crops of broom corn are har
vested, according to S. D. Flora, local
meteorologist. who has just returned
from a trip thru the southwest conn
ties. The farmers in that district, he
declared, will soon be able to ride any
place on anything and the broom corn
will be the primary thing in their
methods of locomotion.
And the whole thing boils down to
the fact that the price per ton of the
product will go as high as the pro-
verbal flying broom ever carried its
mistress. The present price is around
$500 ton, while two years ago broom
corn sold for SIS, provided it was
choice quality.
And the crop, Mr.. Flora states, will
be larger than ever, in spite of dis
couraging weather in the early part
of the summer. Acreage in the state
has been increased on account of the
partial failure of the wheat crop. But
the price of broom corn will truly
mount to the skies, which is only a
stage above the present price level, in
spite of the large supply.
The corn crop in this district, Mr..
Flora reported this morning, is far
from discouraging. With the recent
rains in the state and with the drouth
relief of last month, Kansas farmers
are in sight of a better winter than
they have seen for years.

MONTH OF MOISTURE
August Rainfall Has Been the Heaviest
Since June. 1916.

August has already qualified as a
record wet month of the year. Also
it has proved to be the wettest month
recorded in Topeka since June, 1916,
a year and two months. Rainfall in
the last twenty-four hours totaled A
of an inch, bringing the total pre-
cipitation for the month to 5.5S inches.
The normal for August, according to
weather bureau records is 4-29-near-
ly 25 per cent under the rainfall of
this month. The precipitation meas
urement of August, 1917, has not been
equal1ed since 1910.
The rain, according to S. d. Flora,
local meteorologist, was a life saver
to Kansas corn. 1t had been ruined,
burnt up, scorched and totally lost, ac-
cording to statements from FARMERS
before this last wet SPELL. But under
the drizzling rains of the month a
good corn crop has developed, pas
lures have picked up and alfalfa
promises to make a record yield.
