The following message just receiv-
ed from Washington by Fred M. Sack
EFT, Federal Food Administrator for
Kentucky, and shows the efforts that
are being made by the Food Admins
tration in the interest of the farming
community raising hogs throughout
the country, through a conference
held at Washington, d. c.
The conference between the Live
Stock Subcommittee of the Agricul-
tural advisory Board, including spe7
cial members representing the swine
industry and of the Food Admins
tration, held on October twenty-third
to twenty-fifth, has, after considera-
ton of the present situation OF the
pork and hog market, reached the lol-
lowing conclusions:
The entire marketing situation has
SO changed since the September joint
conference as to necessitate an entire
alteration in the plans of price sta
bilization. The current peace talk has
alarmed the holders of corn, and there
has been price decline of from twen-
ty-five cents to forty cents cents per
bushel. The fact that the accumu-
lations of low priced corn in the Ar
gentine and South Africa would, upon
the advent of peace and liberated
shipping, become available to the Eu-
ropean market, has created a great
deal of apprehension on the part OF
corn holders. This decline has spread
fear among swine growers that a sim
liar reduction in the prices of hogs
would naturally follow. Moreover, the
lower range of corn prices, would, II
incorporated in a thirteen to one ra-
ito obviously result in continuous
" falling price for live hogs. In view
of these changed conditions many
swine produces anticipated lower
prices and, as a result, rushed their
hogs to market in large numbers, and
this overshipment has added to and
aggravated the decline.
The information of the department
of Agriculture indicates that the sup
ply of hogs has increased about eight
per cent. while the highest unothcial
estimate does not exceed fifteen per
cent. increased production over last
year, on the other hand, the arrival OF
hogs during the last three weeks in
the seven great markets has been
twenty-seven per cent. more than last
year, during the corresponding period
demonstrating the unusually heav!
marketing of the available supply. In
the face of the excessive receipts some
packers have not maintained the price
agreed upon last month. On the Other
hand, many of the packers have paid
over the price offered to them in al
endeavor to maintain the agreed price
The result in any event has been {
failure to maintain the October price
basis determined upon by the Septem
Der conference and undertaken by thu

the injection of uncomfortable factors.
We ask the producer to cooperate
with us in most difficult task. The
conference concluded by giving a ris-
ing vote of appreciation to Mr.. Hoover
for the able manner in which the
greatest crisis that has confronted
swine producers has been handled and
to express the belief that the swine
producers are and have been given
support of unestimable value by the
whole Food Administration.

packers Another factor contributing
to the break in prices during the
month has been the influenza epidem-
ic; it has sharply curtailed consump-
ton of pork products and temporar-
lily decreased the labor staff of the
packers ABOUT twenty-five per cent.
The exports of one hundred thirty
million pounds of pork products for
October compared with about fifty-two
million pounds in October a year ago,
and the export orders placable by the
Food Administration for November,
amount to one hundred seventy mil
lion contrasted with the lesser eX
ports of ninety-eight million for No
vember nineteen seventeen. The in
creased demands of the allies abe con-
tinuing and are in themselves proof
of the necessity for the large produc-
ton for which the Food Administra-
ton asked. The increase in export
demands appears to be amply suffic-
lent to take up the increase in hog
production but unfavorable market
conditions existing in October afford
no fair index of the aggregate supply
and demand.
1t must be evident that the enor-
nous shortage in fats in the central
empires and neutral countries would
Immediately upon peace result in adj
ditional demands for pork products
which. on top of the heavy shipment
to the allies, would tend materially to
increase the American Exports, mas
much as no considerable reservoir of
supplies exists outside of the United
States 1t seems probable that the
present prospective supplies would be
inadequate to meet this world demand
with the return to peace. So far as II
is possible to interpret this fact, IT
appears that there should be even a
stronger demand for pork products af-
ter the war, and therefore, any alarm
of hog producers as to the effect OF
! peace is unwarranted by the outlook
In the light of these circumstances
it is the conclusion of the conference
that attempts to hold the price of hogs
to the price of corn may work out to
the disadvantage of pork producers
1t is the conclusion that any interpre-
tation of the formula should be
broad gagged policy applied over q
long period. 1t is the opinion of the
| conference that in substitution of the
previous plans of sterilization, the
live stock subcommittee Of the agri
culture advisory board, together will
tives, should accept the invitation o
the Food Administration to join will

trolled export orders are to be placed
This will be regularly done. The in
fluence of these orders will be direct
ed to the maintenance of the common
object, namely, the sterilization of thu
price of live hogs so as to secure "a
for as it is possible fair returns to tn
producer and the insurance of an ade
quate future supply. These foreigl
orders are placed upon the basis o
cost of hogs to the packers.
