§mm, mm Thursday, Jons 1, 1950 >* PROSPECTS IIS0U8SED DURING MAYMEETOTQ Only about 35 per cent of Illinois' corn crop has been planted *0 far this year, compared with 80 f«r cent a year ago, members of the board of directors of the Illittois Agricultural Association have •Utimated. Planting is about ten jgays to two weeks • late„ the directors agreed. But they still have Jfjjopes for a good corn crop. The directors, , all operating ; farmers, made this estimate at Qtefr regular monthly meeting lere. The IAA is the state Farm iureau organization representing 175,000 farm families. v;; Too much rain has been the tief factor in holding back plantg, the directors said. Some farmers, however, are delaying planting as one method of fight- V tftg the corn borer threat. The wheat crop will probably %e only one-half as big as last ypar'ef, directors from the southern Wlllinois wheat belt said. Much Vheat was damaged by being heaved put of the ground by alterf ite freezing and thawing during e Winter. • Sastures and hay crops '.are.comi* g along rapidly after being delayed by bad spring weather. Alfalfa and red clover crops are generally reported in good condition,' the directors s§id. ^ Illinois' fruit crop will be conslderably below normal, although there seems to be a good chance for a satisfactory strawberry yield. The peach crop will probably be light, with a smaller apple crop than normal. The directors reported the late season has produced an odd development in crop advancement this spring. Traditionally, southern Illinois is three weeks ahead .£of the northern parts in the growing season. This year the difference probably is little more than 4 week. -- FOR -1 S > I. • ' ' A'/, ">*r *•*' V ^ 'V ' THE MoHXXRT PLAZKDSALER TRUCK REGISTRATION FOR 1949 EXCEEDED '19 PASSENGER OARS A total of 2,414,354 motor vericles were registered in Illinois during 1949, or about 8.6 per cent above the number registered the previous ypar, according to Charles M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor Club. A total of 2,222,953 motor vehicles were registered In Illinois in 1948. Government figures show 36,- 433,674 passenger cars, 208,898 buses and 8,028,016 trucks were licensed in the United States last year. "Total registrations for 1949, including autos, trucks, and buses," Mr. Hayes continued, "reached 44- 670,588, an 8..6 per cent increase over the 1948 figure, and IQ,198,000 greater than the pre-war high established in 1941. "It is interesting'.to'-'note! that more trucks were registered last year than passenger cars for the year 1919. The greatest increase in motor vehicle registrations was shown by Louisiana, which had 17.3 per cent more vehicles in 1949 than in 1948. The smallest, increase was recorded by Maine, with 0.5 per cent."

ACTO FATAltlTlES The 140 fatalities caused by automobile accidents on Illinois highways during April represent a 10 per cent increase over the 127 deaths in April, 1949, according to Charles P. Casey, director of the state Department of Public Works and Buildings. Fatalities for the first four months of this year are 590, up 14 per cent over the similar period of 1949, Casey said.
