If the national qonsumption scale can be applied to Illinois, about per cent of the recordsmashing production of 598,672,- 000 bushels was fed to hogs, cattle and poultry, being ultimately consumed by people in the form of meat, milk and eggs. The remaining 15 per cent is filling an increasingly important role in the nation's food and nonfood industries, according to Corn Industries Research Foundation, Inc. Although Illinois corn acreage was down in 1956, it led the nation in its big contribution to the national harvest of 3,451,000,000 bushels, second greatest on record. It was the largest corn production year in Illinois history and the fifth" time in nijie years the crop has exceeded 500 million bushels. In addition, the Illinois yield of 68 bushels per acre, another state record, was 50 per cent greater than the national average, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture reports. Records reveal the current yield is nearly double the average Illinois yield of 30 years ago. Thus, the rich bounty of Illinois farm lands is adding to the growing problem of surplus corn and, iri^-tym, helping to increase the tempd of research activities in the search fdt; new uses for the golden kernel. In the expanded industrial uses for products derived from corn, many industry and government leaders see an answer to the problems of surpluses and current excess farm production. In one way or another, every part of the corn kernel -- starch gluten, germ and hull--is transformed by the corn refining industry into products needed" in industry, homes, farms and the world of science.

Language All |ts Own I Take a good look at this gentleman as he strides out. to his waiting car. You probably feel--as we do--that you know a number of things about him. First of all, we would be willing to venture that he is a man who holds to high standards of achievement . . . and that he occupies a substantial position in his own area of endeavor. We would guess that he is held in high personal esteem' by his friends and associates. And we would also suppose that he is a practical man who is keenly aware of the basic worth of the things around him. The reason for all this is not far to seek. For the motor car that awaits him at the curbside bears the beautiful crest of Cadillac. And here, beyond conjecture, is the most eloquent spokesman in all the realm of possessions. In fact, the Cadillac car has been so closely associated with the leading citizenry of our land that the two have become all but inseparable in the public mind. And just as these motorists have placed their trust in Cadillac, so Cadillac has, in return, given them everything that they could ever hope for in an automobile. Cadillac has given them unduplicated be&uty and luxury . . . unsurpassed performance and comfort and ease of handling . . . and extraordinary quality. And Cadillac has given them value. In fact, the Cadillac car represents one of the wisest purchases in all motordom. * • * Have you driven a 1957 Cadillac? If not, we urge you to let the car tell you its own thrilling story on the highway. We think you will agree that this year, more than ever, Cadillac speaks a language all its own!
