CROP PROSPECTS DECLINE Harvest prospects for several Indiana crops as of August 1 had dimmed from the July 1 forecast, dtie to spotty precipitation and high temperatures. The August 1 forecast by statefederal agricultural statisticians at Purdue University carries the first forecast of soybeans. A 73.2 million bushel soybean crop is forecast, 12 per cent smaller than the record 1965 output, but two per cent larger than average. Yield is forecast at 25 bushels an acre, compared to 28 bushels an acre last year and a 26.8-bushel average. Corn yield in the August 1 report is forecast at 87 bushels an icre, compared with the 1965 record of 94 bushels. The Indiana crop is forecast at 458.6 million bushels, two per cent below last year but 31 per cent above average. Oat yields, forecast at 54 bushels an acre, are lower than on the luiy 1 forecast. Yields averaged 52 bushels an acre last year. Production is forecast at 19.4 million bushels, 11 per cent more than ast year, but 37 per cent below iverage. With wheat harvest completed,

the statisticians estimate a crop of 45.7 million bushels, 16 per cent larger than the 1965 crop. Yields averaged a record 44 bushels an acre, 10 bushels an acre better than last year. Hay production is forecast at 2.2 million tons, 16 per cent smaller than last year. Production from 1965 is down 23 per cent for alfalfa, 26 per cent for lespedeza and up one per cent for cloverdmothy hay. The tobacco yield forecast, at 2,200 pounds, is unchanged from the July 1 report. This yield is 15 pounds below the 1965 yield. July milk production is estimated at 280 million pounds, the same as June production, but three per cent smaller than July, 1965. Egg production totaled 174 million eggs, three per cent fewer than in July last year. FAST GAINING BEEF CALVES Feeder calves vary widely in rate of gain and feed costs per pound of gain. The traits of gainability and feed efficiency are highly heritable. Research suggests that the faster-gaining feeder calves generally net more profit in the feed-

lot for these reasons: Owing to the close relationship between rate of gain and feed efficiency, faster-gaining animals require less pounds of feed per pound of gain; Faster-gaining , feeders reach market weights and grades in a shorter feedlot period, thereby, decreasing overhead. Mimeo AS-336, “Fast Gaining Beef Calves Increase Profits,” published by the Indiana Cooperative Extension Service at Purdue University, makes these points: Cattle feeders should look critically at the difference in feeding the faster-gaining calves and that they should perhaps consider paying a premium for these animals. Calves sired by performance tested bulls or cattle which have been performance tested in the feedlot probably are the best risks when purchasing fast gaining animals.
