Corn burning stoves are common where I live. In my opinion, they're much safer than wood burning units. Much less debris to deal with and you can vent them out without a lined block chimney.

Corn has historically been at around $2.20 per bushel til this last year, it is now about $3.65. A friend of mine heats his whole house with a corn stove, he said corn would have to go over $5 per bu. before it would be cheaper to go back to his oil furnace with $2.50 fuel oil.
