Corn Loss l' 1 1 m a I ed The loss to tho corn crop from d nought during July has been esti mated here by grain brokers at about 40U,l)tK),U0(l bushels. Arthur Jackson, of the grain firm of Jackson Brothers and Bo set here said he was Informed by a miller In Ii Fayette, Ind., that load after load of wheat Is being hauled to the mill by farmers, to bo ground Into hog feed and taken back home. "Nature seems to bo settling; the farm relief problem," said Uuruard Snow, former assistant United States secretary of agriculture, now a member of tho grain firm of Ibirtlett, Fraxler and company hero. "The tremendous loss of tho corn crop during July," ho said, "a loss which m still continuing, is likely to prove a blessing in dis guise." Supply Adjusted l'oluting out tho heat and drought were accomplishing "such a reduction of tho crop surplus as was proposed by the federal farm board." Snow said that "It looks as though the losses In corn will accomplish the needed readjust ment between supply nnd domand of all products, and Incidentally emphusixe the fact that acreago Is not the only factor to bo reckoned with in determining .volume of crop production." Reports from Ohio put tho total anticipated loss to all farm crops in that state from tho drought at around 1200.000,000, or half Ohio in rmcrs' annual Income from erops.
