The Corn Crop

It is natural that there should be adeal of solicitude throughout the country as to the possible corn crop of 1903

In 1902 the crop was large and valuedat 740000000 or nearly 200000000larger than the high priced cotton croof the sameyear and 200000000 morevaluable than the wheat crop At theresent time the corncrop is considered

uncertain all over the union Theweather during June was unseasonablycold and the floods and freshets in thsouthwest did much to damage thcrop inthe fertile bottom lands of Illi ¬

nois and Missouri In all sections thecorn is very late

The growing corn was considerablysmitten by frost in some of the northern states but the farmers hope byreplanting to secure a good deal ofwhat is termed forage crop The corncrop must be perilous for the reasonthat the price of corn now rules in theChicago market much higher than itwas six weeks ago But the strangestof commercial conditions is the facthat the price of live hogs receded witthe advance in corn

We do not think there is as yet causefor serious alarm August willcorn and the warm weather maytend into the latter portion of Septeber It so we shall have a great corncrop The overflowed lands in the Ill l¬

nois and Missouri bottoms will be re¬

planted with corn and if the soil isstill warm by the 20th of Septemberthe corn crop will matureprovea a

000000 bushels or the lar est crop eve rraised in the United States MotherEarth is always the bounteous paresof general prosperity and the hopenow not unwisely indulged that thparent will show her usual good sensein feeding her children with that pabu ¬
