CORN:
Reaching Up
=. And the corn is as high

-. . AND n corn is dS HlSH
AS an elephants eye
Those lines from a hit tune from
the musical "Oklahoma!" give an
indication of the jubilation IN the
corn country when the stalks are
high, and more than a hint Of the
crops importance.
THE federal government also is
acutely conscious of the importance
of the corn crop to the nations
economy-so when it vas reported
that this years corn crop was
reaching for the skies, there was
general rejoicing.
1t is traditional with the men who
grow corn that if the stalks are
knee high by the Fourth of July"
an excellent crop is in prospect. But
this year, if that adage were true,
the abundance of the crop would
be amazing. For by July Fourth,
the corn stood not just knee high"
but almost shoulder high. From all
sections of the major corn belt
extending from Ohio westward to
Nebraska-the word was the same:
the corn crop was off to an excel
lent start.
GRAIN experts considered it pos
sible that last years fabulous crop
of three billion, $50 million bushel
might be topped by the 1949 crop.
Last years crop had much to, do
with cracking the postwar agricul-
tural price initiation and is believed
by many to have played a key part
in keeping Thomas E. Dewey out Of
the White House.
While prospects were considered
splendid, the cautious were knock
ing on wood for two reasons. These
were that Iowa and Illinois both
have extensive corn-borer infesta-
ton, and subsoil moisture was de-
ficient in some areas, making the
crop more dependant than usual on
good rains in July and August.

NEW HOMES:
More Gosh

Buyers planning to finance
homes through FHA-insured mort
cages may have to make larger
down payments from now on.
THE federal housing administra-
ton had cautioned its underwriters
to consider declining construction
costs when appraising houses for
insured loans.
The result, the agency said,
would be lower mortgages on many
new homes. If the builder fails to
cut his selling price in line with
lower costs, the down payment will
be higher.
THE decline in building costs
and materials have been noted
since late last year, the underwrit-
ers told. Most materials are
plentiful, it was said, and produc-
ton rates of workers in many C
tons have improved.

Like an item from the past was
