things that make the new 1956 Ford
one of America’s finest cars—despite
the fact it is one of America’s lowest
priced cars. Let’s start with these long,
low lines. Looks like it hates to stand
still, doesn’t it?

the Thunderbird. You can see the similarity
from any angle. Look at those broad, flat
hoods, those visored headlights, for example.

aging less than 20 bushels par

omists say.
But low yields can be turned In¬
to high yields and higher profits

means a higher net return for the

Increased Population
Won't Up Farm Profits
By 1973, economists forsee the
population in the United States in¬
creasing to more than 210 million
people. On the surface this would
appear to be far moi-e than
enough to eat up the surpluses of
today's agriculture, and bring
about higher prices tor available
farm products. q
Yet the rise in the need for agri¬
cultural products Isn’t necessarily
going to mean higher prices for
America's farmers. New develop¬
ments that Increase farm produc¬
tion along with the need for farm
products may indicate, say the
experts, that controls will be need¬
ed for a long time to come. In
fact, they conclude, farm prices
will have the tendency to fluctu¬
ate even more widely than now
as the economy grows. In the fu¬
ture, a small change in production
Will result in bigger farm price
awings than now. Therefore pro¬
duction controls will be even more
important than at the present
time.
| Developments that increase farm
production will increase the down¬
ward trend in farm prices by add¬
ing to the supply of agricultural
goods already placed on a limited
market. The economists feel that
new agricultural research should
be directed toward developments
which will reduce costs while
boosting the output.
