THE RUSK CHEROKEZAN, THURSDAY, MAY 5, 1949
lOITDWEST FARM MARKETS
NAWUMMmMAfiMMtnAnaH lit*
Many southwest farm products
sold lower this week, the U. S.
ipepartment of Agriculture's
Production and Marketing Ad-
ministratino reports.
Sorghum prices fell 17 cents a
pound for the week, barley and
yellow corn 9 to 10 cents, and
other grains 3 to 4. No. 2 yellow
corn sold around $1.57 a bushel,
white corn $1.70, oats 79 to 83
cents, and No. 1 wheat $2.33{/j to
$2.40Vi.
i, Hleavy rains further delayed
rice planting in Texas and Okla-
homa last week, but Arkansas
seeding made good progress.
Wheat millfeed markets broke
sharply after several weeks o£
rising prices. Most other feeds
enjoyed good demand. New crop
alfalfa hay started moving to
southwest markets at slightly
lower prices. Seed peanuts sold
slightly weaker at 19 to 20 cents
a pound, as rain damaged crops.
Cotton lost $1 to $3 a bale. Mid-
dling brought 32.45 to 32.65 cents
a pound.
Despite lighter receipts and
higher beef prices than the week
before, most cattle sold 50 cents
to $1 lower in Texas Oklahoma.
Fort Worth held steady on many
classes, however, and Denver
showed some strength. Low grade
calves lost up to $2 at South
Texas markets. Cull and common
grades ranged from $15 to $23 at
San Antonio, $19 to $22.50 at
Houston, and $13 to $20 at Fort
Worth. Denver paid $25 to $29
for medium to choice vealers, and
Oklahoma City up to $25.
Hogs sold about unchanged
from a week ago at Texas mar-
kets, but gained mostly 25 cents
at Oklahoma City and $1 at Den-
ver. Receipts changed little from
a week earlier or a year ago. Pork
lost $1 to $4 for the week. Top
butchers closed Monday at $18.25
in Texas and Oklahoma and $19.50
at Denver. Sows brought $14 to
$16.
Southwest sheep markets
showed litle change from last
week. Good and choice spring
lambs reached $27.50 at San An-
tonio, $29 at Fort Worth, 'and
$29.59 at Oklahoma City. Medium
wooled truck-ins brought $2825
at Denver. Goat kids gained $1
at San Antonio to bring $4 to $5
each, and a few reached $5.50.
Dressed lamb prices advanced $4
to $5 from a week ago as mutton
held steady.
No Texas wool sold last week,
but some mohair moved at 35 to
37 cents.
Mostly steady to firm markets
for eggs and poultry prevailed in
the southwest, although poultry
weakened slightly at Denver and
New Orleans, and eggs strength-
ened a little at Denver. Current
egg receipts kept large within a
range of 40 to 43 cents a dozen,
fryers sold mainly around 32
cents a pound at wholesale mar-
kets.
Abundant moisture resulted in
more of some kinds of vegetables
from southwest growing districts,
but excess rain and floods dam-
aged or destroyed others. South
Texas onions suffered severe dam-
age, and wet weather retarded
vegetable harvest. Rainy weather
slowed strawberry picking in Ar-
end sales netted growers mostly
kansas, but prices declined. Week-
from $9 to $10.50 per 24 quart
crate of No. 1.
