INDIANA CROPS GENERALLY ARE ABOVE AVERAGE

Corn Crop Only Below Estimated Yield Fruit Crops Are Exceptionally Small. Crop conditions In Indiana on September 1, as set forth In the regular monthly report of Geo. C. Bryant, Held agent, bureau of crop estimates, United States Department of Agriculture, show all the principal crops, except corn, to be considerably above the ten-year average. Weather conditions during August caused an estimated shrinkage In the corn crop of 12,654,000 bushels, which, at the prevailing market price, means a loss of $19,234,000 to the Indiana farmers. This is offset to some extent however, by an increase In the estimated production of oats on the September condition figure. A gain of 6,346.000 bushels Is shown over last month's figures, the value of which is $3,421,000. Barley shows an increase of 90,000 bushels, and hay shows an increase of 113,000 tons over the August forecast. Potatoes show a decrease of 145,000 bushels and sweet potatoes 17,000 bushels over the August forecast. Tobacco also shows a decrease of 912,000 pounds for the month. The clover seed acreage for harvest this year is 15 per cent, greater than last year, making approximately 155,000 acres. The, production of timothy hay compared with a full crop is only 86 per cent.; while alfalfa production is 93 per cent of a full crop. Most of the fruit crops are exceptionally small; peaches being only 5 Jper cent, of a crp and apples and pears but little better than one-fourth of a crop. Watermelons and cantaloupes, however, show 74 per cent and 78 per cent rescpectively. Condition figures for September on other Indiana crops, compared with

normal (100 per cent.), on which no forecast is made at this time, are as fololws: Millet 86 per cent., pastures 72, grain sorghum 86, field peas 86, field beans 83, tomatoes 88, cabbage 75, onions 87, sorghum 91, grapes 75, sugar beets 82. The report also shows that there are 15 per cent more hogs on farms for fattening than last year, and that the wool clip was 10 per cent, greater than last year.
