Economic Report
Several important factors i?-
luted to the agricultural outioqk
are set forth In the mid-year eco
nomic report of the president to
congress, says L. R Breithaupt,
extension agricultural economist
ut Oregon State college The re
port is the second to be transmit
ted in accordance with the Em
ployment act of 1946 and was pre
pared with the assistance of the
Council of Economic Advisors ard
other government agencies.
The report states that “in view
■ of the existing uncertainties in
the farm outlook it is the duty ot
food growers, processors, anil 'he
government to keep the public
currently Informed of the roal
facts concerning our food supply.”
One such fact is there is "no gen
eral or present scarcity of farm
and food products as a whole.”
Despite prospects for a smaller
corn crop than the very large
crop of 1946, "we may still obtain
a total agricultural output as large
as last year," the report says.
After pointing out that we are
at a record high point in civilian
production with 60 million civilian
jobs filled, only 2'^ million work
ers unemployed and various other
evidences of prosperity, warnings
are sounded According to the re
port. “The unprecedented pros-
|M-rlty of our nation must not be
a cause for idle self-congratuia-
tion." It says that we must re
member that full employment at
a high price level is being sus
tained by temporary props such as,
< 1I reconversion demands of bust-j
ness, <2» backlog demands of cus
tomers, <3| extensive use of sav
ings and credits, and (4) an extra
ordinary excess of exports ever
imports.
As these props grow weaker,
there will be need of many eco
nomic readjustments to attain a
peace-time economy that is stable
at a maximum level These adjust, j
ments take time, but must be I
made before the lack of them re
sults in serious unemployment and
business decline, the report says.
The report adds that food ex- j
ports helped boost prices, but that
U. S. exports of all goods the first
half of 1947 ran at a rate over a
billion dollars a month in ex?ess of
imports. About half of the deficit
was financed by the government, j
This prop is one that may weaken
as the months go by.
Sweet corn picked during the
morning or afternoon is
sweeter than that harvested early
in the morning. That is a timely
garden reminder from W. B Par
ker. assistant county agent, who
explains that sugar is stored in
the corn during the day and

A second pointer for getting
