NEBRASKA CORN IS
READY FOR A FROST
Harvest of the Crcp in State will
Begin Soon Seeding of Win
ter Wheat is General.
Nearlsr all of the Nebraska corn
crop is ready for a killing frost and
the gathering of corn will soon be
gn. The sesdng of winter wheat is
general except where rains have
caused delav and some of the earlier
planted fields are up. Sugar beet
harvest will start this week. Recent
reports on the United States potato
crop offer but little encouragement.
This summarizes the weakly crop re
port of the sate and federal bureau
of markets and crop estimates. The
report follows:
"About 95 per cent of the Nebras
ka corn crop has matured be3-ond
danger of damage from frost. Husk
ing or harvest of corn is expected to
begin at any time within the first
two weeks of October, depending up
on the time of arrival of the first kill
frost. There has been no change in
condition except seme damage caus
ed by hail and high winds.
"The planting of winter wheat is
general, altho the recent rains have
caused some lelay. Some of the
early sown wheat is up. The average
price of No. 2 wheat on the Omaha
market last week was around $1.20
and 'the average price received by
the farmer was 9 4 cents.
"The tinie of completion of plow
ing for winter wheat was somewhat
earlier than the average, except in
counties whare severe drouth causet
delay. The time of plowing is one of
the most important factors in wheat
production and -the rule is. the earl
ier the better. Last week's reports
on the condition of the seed bed in
dicate insufficient moisture in a num
ber of counties.
"The harvesting of the late com
mercial potato crop is progressing
slowly but the rush will come be
fore long. The summary of condi
tions of the late potato crop for the
United States which follows does
not offer much encouragement:
"Late potatoes show some improve
ment in north and central states,
due to recent Tains, but it .is feared
that the setting of tubers is light.
Recent frosts have killed the vines
.in Montant, but a fair to good crop
is expected. No frost damage is re
ported elsewhere. The early crop is
practically all harvested thruout the
country and lo wyields have gener
ally been reported. Harvesting cf the
late crop is in progress in some sec
tions and very unsatisfactory yields
reported.
"The average prices received by
farmers for products during the past
week are as follows:, Corn 32, wheat
9,4 oats 23, potatoes $1.3S, eggs 23,
cream 30, hogs 57.10, grain fed cat
tle $7.70, other cattle $4.83. These
averages are based upon the returns
of weekly crop reporters."
