Kansas Corn Doing Fine
Kansas farmers report the 1956 corn crop making excellent progress under near ideal weather. Northern and eastern Kansas account for most production while drought damage and silage cutting occur in other areas. Some eastern and northern sections suffered hail damage though affected acreage is limited. Final cultivation nears completion with about two thirds tasseled and half silked by July 21. Washington College in Maryland is the only one with that name, by consent of George Washington.
