SAVED BULK OF CROP.

The rains of the last few days have saved the great bulk of the corn orop in this vioinity. While corn on light land and that had been poorly cultivated had got beyond help by the recent rains, the great peroent was benefited to the extent that no more moisture will be needed to bring it to maturity. A good, fair crop is predicted though not what would be considered a large one.
