Illinois Farmers Outlook Letter Says 1954 Income Down 4 or 5 Percent
The USDA forecasts farm income in 1954 to fall 4 or 5 percent from 1953 due to lower crop prices and smaller sales volumes amid acreage restraints and drought. Cash receipts in early 1954 are about 30 percent below 1953 first quarter, with mixed changes for corn, meat, milk, wheat, cotton, tobacco and vegetables. Illinois shows modest gains in January–February receipts, helped by the 1953 corn crop. Overall price stability is expected as farm and nonfarm prices align and government stock sales moderate price advances.

Atlas sorgho silage as replacement for corn silage
University of Illinois findings show Atlas sorho silage yielding 18 20 tons per acre versus 13 14 tons for corn silage. Calves fed sorgho silage gained slower per head but similar total acre gains, suggesting use with 1 2 pounds extra corn daily to match corn silage gains. Grass and soybeans also offer silage but require 3 4 pounds grain daily for best results.

A University of Illinois farm landscape specialist recommends starting with a scale drawing of the farmstead when planning driveways or improvements. Tests from the Illinois Agricultural Experiment Station suggest soil insecticide application can raise corn yields by 3 to 7 bushels per acre by preventing heavy insect damage.
