Cotemara, Vo, Sept 5, 1908 The Secretary of the State Board of Agriculture, Geo. B. Bilis, to-day made the following announc ment of crop conditions tn this state: | The weather during August was somewhat more favorable abs | ing the state as a whole, than dur-| ing the previous month H iwever, | the raing have been local and shere| has been no general rain during she | mouth, but in most neighborhoods} the rain has been sufficient to keep | up normal growth of the crop. A number ofcorrespoudents, however, ' report that the corn has been fojur | ad during the month by dry weather, | The conditfon has fallen off two] points during the month, the weneral | average for the state now being 72 | as compared with 74 one month ago} aod 88one year ago. The present | condition, however, is based upon) the prospect for normal weather un- til the fniddle of October. The aver- age date for 4 killing frost fa October | 14th, and that willgive abouts time for she late corn to mature, Itte possible, however, that a small per- ceatage of the acreage planted the} tires week tn July will require a Httle| longer time. S: me of the last plant ed corn {8 just now tn the silkingand tusselling stage. A factor which should be taken {nto conslderation | in the corn erop is the greatly re- duced acreage which, on account of} the overtiow and excessive rains ip the spring, 18 estimated at about 10 per cent below what it was last year. Our correspondents estimate that 71 per cent of the entire crop will be fully matured by September 20th, the remainder of the crop re quiring any where from that time until the 15th or 20th of October to CORN. | weeding are now In progress. and tt will probably be the 15th of this myputh before itis complete The new crop will be somewhat re duced in acreage on eccount of the iry weather which has prevented plowing the ground. Recent rains. however, have put the ground in good shapein most counties, and State Fair Corn Show. Premivins aggregating hundreds of dollars wre offered on the besteora grown in the state. Spectal prem iums are offered on corn grown by young men over 15 years of age and under 20, also by boys under 15 years of nye. Le is belleved that this will be the largest exhibit that has ever ben made by she young men of the state. A number of she leading bankers have taken up the propost- tlon and are offering premiums for | corn grown by young men to be shown at the State Fair. The corn from this show can be preserved aud taken to the winter corn show which will be held at Columbia {n January. It is expected that young men in ev ery section o: Missouri will take a great interest in showing corn at the State Fair and that each county will be represented by a Big Exhibit.
