CONDITION ON JULY FIRST IS ALSO LOWEST IN HISTORY

SOME REPORTS BETTER Small Grains. Such as \\ heat, Oats, Etc., Show Improvement Says Report

A decrease of 8 percent is shown in the corn acreage of Indiana this year, compared with last year and a decrease of 12 percent compared with farmers intentions to plant. The condition on July 1 is the lowe.'t in the history of this office and indicates a crop of approximately 68,000,000 bushels less than was produced last year, according to the report of Geo. C. Bryant, Agricultural Statistician, for the co-opera-tive crop reporting sei vice, issued today. Wheat, oats and oth^r small grain crops show some improvement as well as the hay crops. The re-

port folh.ws;

There is a decrease of 8 percent in the acreage of corn . in Indiana this year compared with last year. This is about 12 percent less than was intended to be planted and is due to the fact that farmers were unable to plow or plant in many' localities on account of continuous | rains which set in about May 1. Some of the acreage that was Intended for corn has been planted to soy beans and some will remain i idle. The total for the state this

year is 4,603,000 acres.
