short com crop because of midsummer drought. 2,447,422,000 bushels were harvested. Grain men and government officials have considered this partly responsible for lower meat and poultry production this year. Splendid Moisture “The corn crop was planted under ideal conditions,” Galvin said, ‘and good weather coupled with abundant moisture has been favorable to rapid development. Growth is generally ahead of normal, particularly so in states west of the Mississippi river.” Galvin added, “in view of the splendid moisture condition and the high percent age of acreage planted to hybrids there seems to be ample reason to believe that current prospects will be maintained.” Galvin estimated a combined winter and spring wheat crop of 1,120,725,000 bushels compared with the agriculture department's estimate on- June 1 of‘ a combined crop of 1,202,425,000 bushels. His winter wheat estimate was higher than the agriculture department’s, but he forecasts a lower spring wheat harvest than the department. Oats production was placed by Galvin at 1,400,895,000 bushels compared with an agriculture department June 1 forecast of 1,347,210,000 bushels. • Galvin did not make a break down by states.

E Bond Sales Period To Be Extended

Indiana, Lagging in E Bond Sales, To Have Opportunity To Reach Quota Through Extension For accounting purposes, the sale of E Bonds through July 15, will be counted in Indiana for the Security Loan Drive, it was announced today by Orville R. Maxfield, State Director of the U. S. Savings Bonds Division. “E Bond sales in Indiana are lagging, in order to reach the state goal, an overall bond sales of $67,500,000, every Hoosier should strive to buy bonds by July 15,” Maxfield added. “Actually the Security Lean Drive ended June 30, but tabulation problems are such that the quota reached in the campaign will not be known until the end of this month,” Maxfield explained. Heaviest sales have been in the F and G Bonds series, he reported. A group of eight young matrons of DeMotte have organized a Penochle club and had their first meeting Tuesday evening at the home of Mrs. Jack Evans.
