"# 1 ■' - • ■ The unofficial U S. corn yield champion may again be a Missis¬ sippi farm boy. It has been an¬ nounced by Prentiss County Agricultural Agent, Taylor Smith, that Lindon Ratliff, 17, of Baldwyn, Mississippi, has har¬ vested 242.37 bushels of corn from his one-acre 4-H project. This is equal to 5 times the U. S. average yield. (Lindon and Coun¬ ty Agent Smith are shown above weighing the corn—all corn from the measured acre was weighed.) The reasons given for the high yield were the careful attention given the soil and use of the high- yielding hybrid corn variety, Funk’s G-711, which also pro¬ duced the all-time world yield record of 304.38 bushels from an acre. No strar v o high yields, Lindon also p. ed the U. S. high yield in 19aV. In 1955, his brother, Lamar, set the present world mark of 304 bushels. The average co*m yield in America varies between 40 and 50 bushels per acre, and 100 bushels per acre is considered rn excellent yield. MorganviUe News Column The W. S. C.
