It proved to be some party and a wonderful time was had by all, with birthdays and an anniversary to be long remembered. year, but supplies of other feed grains and old corn are larger. Prices for this year's corn crop seem likely to average about 10 cents a bushel lower than prices of last year's crop. The monthly average Illinois farm price of the 1956 crop ranged from $1.16 in February to $1.23 in December. The December high coincided with the general run-up in commodity prices at the tim6 the Suez Canal was blocked. Carry-over of old cOrn is around 1.400 million bushels compared with 1,165 million a year ago. The new crop is expected to exceed 3,200 million^ This total exceeds the 10-year average of 3,144 million bushels, though it is less than last year's crop of around 3,450 million. The oat 6nd barley crops each are around 16 percent larger than last year. Production of sorghum grain will be near 500 million bushels, over twice as much as last year's crop and three times the 10-year average. The carry-over largely of corn owned by the government (CCC). The CCC sold over 300 million bushels of com during the ear ended Sept. 30 and is expected to sell as much or more during this marketing year. The supply of feed grains in sight exceeds prospective use and exports by around 5 million tons. Thus the carry-over next fall may be near 48 million tons, up about 10 percent over the 1957 level. While Congress cannot set the piece of corn by legislation, prices are * influenced by price-support programs, at least in the short run. Farmers put large quantities of eligible corn under price support when the market price drops more than about 10 cents a bushel under the support level. The general price support level is $1.10 a bushel compared with $1,25 last year. The support rate for compliance corn averages $1.40 compared with $1.50 last year. While a smaller proportion of farmers may be Eligible for the higher loan rate this year, more corn may be placed under loan. The reason is that production is much greater this year in the western part of the corn belt, where farmers usually put large amounts under loan. Last year many fanners in the best m corn areas of Iowa arid Nebraska had very poor corn crops--and some had complete failures. L. H. Simerl i|;. Dept. of Ag.
