SOME CORN ON THE KANKAKEE MARSHES.

The corp husking on the John Brown & Son Kankakee ranch .was practically finished this week, and a very conservative estimate on the many different cribs and piles, scattered over the large place, is 50,000 bushels. This is based on 40 bushels per acre, and they are quite sure some turned out 60 and 70 bushels, and perhaps the 1,200 acres averaged 50 will swell the total to 60,000 bushels.—Crown Point Star.
