Prospects for 1916 Corn Crop Across States
The 1916 corn crop shows similar acreage to last year with southern states reducing corn in favor of cotton. Seed quality was weak and replanting occurred due to a cold season. The June situation in the seven corn belt states is about average, with possible bumper or very small yields depending on July August rainfall. A daily rainfall report would aid farmers in estimating yields.

New Method Improves Production of Safe Hog Cholera Serum
The Journal of Agricultural Research describes a bean extract method to prepare clear hog cholera serum. Adding navy bean extract to defibrinated blood agglutinates red cells, enabling separation of clear serum that can be heat sterilized at 60 C for 30 minutes, yielding up to 74 percent potency with full pathogen kill. The process, discovered by Dr. Marion Dorset and R. R. Henley, is government-owned and not yet commercialized.
