[& WASHINGTON, Dec. 18 (UP) —An unparalleled harvest of 179 million tons of grain this year

' |has brought hope to the house

wife and uneasiness to the farmer +

" |and the government.

Grain production is nearly 40 million tons greater than in 1947 and 17.6 million tons more than the previous peak in 1946. Corn leads a procession of record-' breaking crops with an output

. |of 3651 million bushels, according

to the Agriculture Department's latest estimate.

Since corn is the raw material

~tfor meat, the housewife can look

forward to more steaks and chops at slightly cheaper prices by the end of 1949, the Agricul. ture Department says. Supplies Of poultry and dairy products also will be More plentiful. Record Yields Set

In issuing its figures for all 1948 crops, the department's crop reporting board: said total farm production. far. exceeded. that of any other year. New record yields per acre were set for corn, cotton, oafs, soybeans, potatoes, tobacco and dry beans. Quality was likee wise cutstanding. The wheat harvest, second largest in history, was placed at 1288 million bushels. Wheat farm ers have already been warned by the department that they are in for trouble during the next few years -because of expected dein foreign demand and |lower government price supports,
