FARNfERs ADVISED TO
HOLD THEIR STOCK HOGS

Ogden, Utah. April I4-Livestock
and meat packing men of Ogden are
advising that farmers and livestock
raisers of the intermountain states
hold their stock hogs. despite their
present advance in market price. This
advice is being given in view OF the
prediction of many of the stockyards
men that twenty-five cents will be
the price for fat hogs during the sum-
mer. In that case, none OF the live
stock raisers can afford to send their
stock hogs, not yet fattened. to the
markets. Instead. only those ami
mails that are finished should be mar
keted, according to the men in touch
with present market conditions and
future prospects.
Some of these stock hogs are now
being sold at from fifteen to sixteen
cents a pound. a price that in former
years might have appeared high but
which in the face of the shortage in
Europe, the heavy demand for meat
products in America and the opening
or many new markets for pork. does
not reach the figure that is expected.
During the past week thousands of
heads OF stock hogs entered the Og-
den market and were shipped east
from the intermountain states. Each
one of these shipments according to
the view of the livestock dealers and
packing men, represented an eventual
loss to the owner. both a loss as to
weight and a loss as to price.
With prospective range conditions
excellent throughout the intermoun-
tain country. cattle and sheep are
now going to the higher ranges and.
at the same time. there has been
heavy increase in market shipments
OF all kinds. The prices have been
retained at about the same levels. ex-
cepting that the figures for finished
hogs continue to advance.
