ALABAMA FARMERS. HAVE ENOUGH CORN.
Prices of Grain Advanced Dur ing Past Week, State De-
 partment Says

Montgomery, March 5.--tspeciaI)- Alabama farms will have enough home grown orn to run them through the crop year, according to the week ly summary of market conditions is- sued today by the state bureau of markets and immigration. It is pos sible that some purchases may be necessary by farmers of west and southwest Alabama.
 The prices of grain, especially corn, have made material advances during the past three weeks in line with the advance in the prices of hogs, but lit- tie corn is being placed on the mar ket, indicating to the bureau of mar kets that farmers are determined to hold their corn for use during the crop growing season.
 The weekly market summary fol- lows:
 The following average prices were paid Alabama farmers for the com modities named during the week end ing Saturday, March 4
 Cotton, middling, 7o per pound, cotton seed, $33 per ton, wagon lots: corn, Foe per bushel, peanuts, run ners, $50 per ton: peanuts, Spanish, $60 per ton; sweet potatoes, Sl per bushel; sugar cane syrup, 60c in gal lon cans; sorghum 40c per gallon; velvet beans, s10 to SIS per ton; cow peas. Sl.65 per bushel. soy beans, s2 per bushel; Johnson grass hay, sI4 to $l5 per tom peanut vine hay, $10 to SIP per ton; peavine hay, $20 per ton; soy bean hay, $20 per ton; hogs Nos. l, and g. S1sc per pound; cattle, common, ? to Sc per pound: choice. 3 10 4c; best butcher stock, to Sc; chickens, 20e per pound; eggs, IS per dozen.
 The steady advance in the priee of hogs for the past three weeks finds sympathetic advance in grain, and especially corn. Hogs are selling for Size, or Sc above the price offered in December, and corn and wheat have scared to new levels. No 9 white corn delivered in Montgomery is around S4c, or about 20c per bushel higher than pre-holiday prices.
 Alabama hogs are going on the market at a steady clip, while a large per cent of home grown corn is still on the farms. This means that very little corn will be shipped into the state for the crop year, as Alabama farms will be supplied from home ex- cept in certain districts in west and southwest Alabama.
 Practically all the gathered crops of velvet beans and soy beans in the state are now being held for seed prices. Only limited quantities can be located. Cowpea stocks are also moving steadily to outside mark cts. The hay market remains fairly steady with slight increase in price during

 The cold weather in the belt was supporting influence for a while, because of its effect on young cot ton in south Texas, but this was off set, in the end, by the feeling that the cold had done more good than harm, partly through putting d good season in the ground but more es- pecially because of it's probable eff feet one the boil weevil. which, not long ago official reports said was safely hibernating in unprecedented numbers.

Some localities wired in immediately after the cold weather set in that fully 50 per cent Of the crop had been planted and that 70 per cent was up, and was. of course, wiped out. At Browns vile, most southern point in the cot ton region, the temperature fell to 32 degrees on four consecutive nights. At the end of the week 1t was said that much replanting would be neces- sary, and moreover, that good seed for replanting was scarce.
