INDIANA'S CROPS WORTH MILLIONS EXPERTS REPORT INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 27. Indiana toll, rain and sunshine, aided - by a little physical exercise on the part of Hoosler farmers, brought forth products aggregating In value $350,000,000 during the year 1915, according to expert calculations furnished by the agricultural department , of Purdue University at Lafayette. This prodigious amount of "created wealth" Is at least $10,000,000 In excess of what Indiana normally produces. The corn crop topped the list with a yield of nearly 200,000,000 bushetJ. roughly valued at $116,000,000. Live stock came in second, bringing -over $80,000,000 Into the pockets of the farmers.. .. .-. Wheat suffered a reversal of form along toward harvest time but managed to coin about $38,000,000 of genuine currency. The hay crop was worth over $34, 000,000 and dairy products were concerted into $28,000,000 more. Oats did fairly well under adverse circumstances at $17,000,000, but poul try attracted especial attention $22,000,000 being the income reaped from the feathered tribe. The modest sum of $22,000,000 represents the .estimated value of Indiana's fruits in 1915 and products listed as "farm truck" (exclusive of potatoes) added a few more gold dollars to the grand total. The tobacco crop of Indiana, with an acreage confined to a few southern counties, was worth more than a million dollars. The Purdue experts reckon that during the year 1915 the money received from the sale of Indiana farm produce would just about cover the expenses of the entire European war for nearly a week., , CHESTER, IND. .
