No Hope for Indiana Corn.

State Statistician Johnson said at Indianapolis, from observations he had made, that he believed the corn crop in Indiana was practically beyond redemption. “Rain,” said he, “will be of little benefit now. Rain and an unusually late fall might help conditions, but even then the benefit will be small. The corn stalks hav£ begun to harden, and the stalk is weedy. Even with good rains from now on the ears of corn will not develop. In some small localities there will be good corn.”
