The wheat crop in this section is very good and the grain is beginning to turn very rapidly. Farmers have been busy during the past few weeks putting in their hay. and. although the wet season has made the curing of this crop very difficult, it has produced a large growth of grass and clover and farmers are hard pressed for time to harvest the hay before rye and wheat ' cutt ng time. While the oats crop will fall somewhat short of the normal production, indicat.ons point to a good yield for what acreage is in. ' Corn prospects are poor and consid- ! erable corn acreage has been abandI oned on account of the wet condit on I and weeds. * i Indications are that what corn will I be produced will be of a considerable 1 low quality, being soft and immature i on account of the short grow ng season. Such corn land that has not been planted however is be.ng pu. ■ into substitute crops such as millet. I buckwheat and soy beans which are ■favorite short season crops. There does not seem to be any considerable I amount of blighter grain in the coun8y and rust is no worse this year than in any other more normal seasons. Wheat'cutting this year is the latest n th s section of the state that i it has been for years. CHICAGO MARKET CLOSE Wheat: July $1.10%; Sept. 11.16%; Dec. 11.19%.

Predicts That Price Os Hogs Have Hit Bottom Chicago, July 11.—Hog prices have seen bootom for this summer and probably will not be as low again within two or three years. Everett (’. Brown, president of the Chicago Livestock Exchange, declaerd today in a statemen on market conditions. •Hogs have always eventually reached a corn basis of values." Brown said, “and they are going to do it now. “Hogs have been losing from 1400 to SSOO a car on the basis of the present price of corn. In other words. If the farmer had not fed his corn to the hogs but had sold it at the pre'gent market price for corn he would be S4»O or SSOO better off , | "On the basis of the present price of corn, matured hogs are worth at least $lO a hundred, and I should not be surprised to see that figures reached before October 1."
