"it Nebraska had as little good corn this year as a fellow csn find in politics th stats would be poor, indeed." sstd Labor Commissioner Ryder. The ccmmiasloner has recently been on the go a great deal on buslnee 4f his department and Incidentally . as am invited snenJcer for the republican side at various picnics and club gather ings. "Republican and dercccrstic speakers, orators, nation savera, agree that they never saw so little public interest in poli tics or candidates. The contract price of corn or the average date of early frost tn Nebraska ar the engrossing subjects arid f hell with polttk is the ruling aentiment. "Talking . of prices, I was told by an Aurora man who has several farms that he has been offered SO cents for all the corn he will deliver. He refused the offer. And let me say the g-ovemment estimate of our corn crop "is too high, while some if the railroad estimate are away off. In my Judgment. We have several hundred reports htre In the office, now, that bear out this statement and I have been in a large number of fields on foot. A great Seal of corn is thin and uneven, and fully W per cent of the total acreage planted has been lost. Nebraska will have probably 70 per cent of a full normal crop, not moi. "This must be said, however: Where we have good corn this year we have as fine a crop as heart could wish. A yield of a bushels to the acre can be looked for In some fields, barring a hard frost within two or three weeks. Forty bush els win be the taily in a great many instancea, and JO to 19 bushels a ill be realised In many more field. But the big expectationa of some folks on ag gregale yield are due for a hard tumble. "Our -producers si going to realise good prices for whst they have to sell, tn spite of the Denver trouble trumpeting aad Mh water. If these producers are planning a vote that will bring about a change in the present satisfactory condi tions they are keeping their Intentions very effectively under cover. I do not bellev tbey are.
