Corn Reaches Knee-High Stage Early;
HIGHER COURTS
Vital American Crop Extremely Promising

sired. But right now the outlook

than knee high by the Fourth of
July appeared to be a certainty
today for the nation’s all important
corn crop.
Traditionally, corn should be
knee high by July 4 if the country
is to have a good harvest. It al-
ready is knee high in several Mid-
west areas and growing rapidly as
a result of rains.
That's good news to everyone
who eats. Corn is a basic grain
used mainly as a livestock and
poultry feed. High prices now post-
ed in grocery and meat stores
are attributable at least in part to
last year's short corn production.
Crop experts cautioned the crop
is a long, long way from being

H. J. Gramlich, agriculture
agent for .the Chicago and North-
western Railway, who returned
here today from a survey through
Iowa, said corn in that state was
coming forward by leaps and
bounds.”
"There is a big acreage and it’s
off to a wonderful atart,” Gram-
lich said. "There has been no flood
damage, which contrasts shsrply
with last year at this time.”
In Nebraska, the state agricul-
ture department said, ‘corn has
made excellent growth and recent
rain has provided much-needed
moisture. The crop averages sbout
knee high and for the most part is
reasonably free from weeds. Some
replanting has been necessary.
But most of this is now up to a
good stand.”
The Kansas Agriculture Depart-
ment said corn in that state had
continued to make favorable
growth with moisture supplies
"very satisfactory.”
