NATIONS CORN CROP
GREATEST IN HISTORY


Washington, Sept. 1.-THE great
est corn crop in the country's histo-
ry is in prospect for this years harv-
est. Forecast of production based
on September p conditions, was
placed at 3,131, 100000 bushels to-
day by the Department Of Agricul-
ture. Such a yield would exceed by
100000 bushels the previous larg-
est crop on record, which was 1912.
A crop of even larger proportions
will be harvested if frosts hold off
until late and permit maturity OF
much late corn now rated as of
doubtful promise.
Tobacco also is a record crop this
year and probably will exceed the
best previous production by 114,-
100000 pounds. Forecast produc-
ton places this years crop at l.
553, 900, 900. pounds.
August growing conditions proved
highly beneficial to most of the
country's important crops, and as q
result production forecasts general
ly were higher in today's government
report than the forecasts Of a
month ago. Corn improved to the
extent of 1923, 100000 bushels, oats
4a,oO0.0 900 bushels, wc,te potatoes
1000, 900 bushels, sweet. potatoes
100000 bushels, tobacco 10000
600 pounds and apples 100000
bushels.

We understand that the growers
around Martin are digging better
than 200 bushels to the acre where
fertilizer was used and where no

bushels are made in some fields.
The price paid for the first cars was
81. 80 and $3.50 per hamper. The
outlook is good for a fair crop, and
if these prices hold up it will mean
some money to the farmers.

ing of the city council to borrow the
sum of $4,000 from the state for

was constructed about ten years ago
and has proved adequate to convey
the waters from Robinson canyon.
which drains q watershed Of about
twenty-six miles.
