Miscellany Potato prlca aupport legislation Is atlll being worked through tha un certainties of congressional proce dure.

Corn Crop Is Big Factor In Meat Output Last year'a big corn crop la real ly getting to tha butchers counter now, Tha Uit quarter of 1M will i mora meat on tha market than tha aama months of 146 eaya tha U S. department of agriculture. Tha In crease la likely to get under way In September as the first of this years spring piga coma to market. There will alio be mora good-quali ty corn-fed beef this aeason than a year ago, according to estimates by the bureau of agricultural ec onomics. An increase of about IS per cent In the spring pig crop la the principal item In the proapect for mora meat In tha months ahead. Thla combined with tha ample aup ply of corn from tha 1R46 harvest and waa also a result of tha bum per crop of IMS. Hog (rowers wera aura of an abundance of corn to feed the larger number of plga. Mid-summer prospects for a big corn crop this year hava encour aged hog and cattle feeders. The bureau alio notes that In the five monthi of this year there was a decrease of 10 per eeat In the cows and 33 per cent In mature I sheep slaughtered under Federal meat Inspection. "It appeari ilka ly," eavs tha bureau, "that num bers of cattle breeding itock will be held even or poiulbly Increased lightly In 1M- Thla will follow a period of shrinking numbera of breeding animals.

In addition to tha somewhat heav ier weights and better quality of beef expected, the bureau points out that the Increases In chlckena and turkeys will alio build up the meat aupply for tha final quarter of 1949. Children will enjoy a milk ahake made with maihed ripe banana and sweetened with molasses for an af ternoon treat.
