The corn crop of Minnesota and
South Dakota will probably be one OF
the largest ever raised in this terri
tory, Another week without heavy
frost should put it out of danger, ex.
cept very small percentage which
is always late. Heavy frosts in North
Dakota and northern Minnesota have
no doubt caused some damage to
corn in these sections. ..1
Late flax, has also been injured by
recent heavy frosts, but we believe
that this will NOT amount to over 5
to 10 per cent of the total crop, as
most of the flax had been cut. '1
The movement of wheat from the
country to the terminals is heavy at
this time and farmers apparently are

as barley and oats, until their wheat
