.sWIF FITS BOOK EXPLAINS
FALL in HOG PRICES

The story of the fall of king
Hog" from the lofty position he
held immediately after the world
war is recounted with historical
accuracy in a booklet just off the
press. 1t is the illustrated 1920
Year Book issued by Swift and
Company. How the porcine auto
crat tumbled from his perch with
mournful squeal is portrayed in
statistics and diagrams.
"The decline in cattle and beef
prices was to be expected because
we knew that Europe would turn
to South Americas as soon as
boats were available, says the
Year Book in discussing the fall
of wholesale meat prices. "The
decline in hog prices that began in
August, however, was entirely
unexpected, and led to- critical sit
uation, both among live stock
producers and among the packers.
"The cessation of the war at
first had the effect of increasing
temporarily European demand for
hog products in the United States
There was no other country to
which they could turn. This push
ed up the price of hogs until it
Preached $3.50, the top price in
IJuly. The decline since that time
has been due to the fact that al
though European nations need and
[want Our pork products they have
been unable to pay for them. The
unprecedented depression in For
1eign Exchange is evidence of this
condition"
4 Hogs that had been bought at
from Is to q cents by Swift and
Company had to be marketed on
the basis of IS cent hogs. The
decline in inventory values during
August and September, is has
Been found, was over ten million
dollars.

LIVE STOCK
DEPRECIATES IN Value

Kentucky farmers this year have on
hand livestock worth approximately
$165,017,000 compared to $17S,439,-
coo worth of stock on farms in the
state last year. There is only very
slight decrease in the total number
of all classes of farm animals as q
year ago, make the total value ap-
proximately seven and a half per cent
less than III 1919.
Horses number approximately 1885,
COZ, mules 231 900, milk cows 457,-
00U, other cattle, $4,000, sheep, L.
100000, and swine 1851 900. Compar-
ed to t9i9 this is approximately de-
crease. of 2 per cent in horses, no
change in number OF mules, 1 per
cent increase in number of milk cows.
) per cent decrease in other cattle, 3
Iper cent decreased in number of sheep
AMI 5 per cent decrease in number of
, swine.
/ Mil cows are the only class of live
stock averaging higher in value than
last year $500 in 1920 compared to,
$720G il 1919. Horses average $101.-
90 compared to S104.00 a year ago,
and mules were only about The same
average price year ago until the
very recently activity sent prices up
= little, even that not affecting the
average for all ages much, as many
farmers complain of unreasonably low
prices on yearling mules, which helps
tt reduce the average of mule prices.
The States average price on mules
(all ages) this year is about $4,000
compared to $127.00 last year. The
value of the average hog in Kentucky
shows a drop from $1,000 last year
| to $500 this year, sheep from $3.50
to $1,000 this year, and cattle other
than milk cows show a small decrease
in average value, from $42.50 last
year to Sal. 20 this year.
