TRADERSEvENUP
COTTON ACCOUNTS
Many Believe Staple Picked

Very Low Grade.
By the Assoeiated Press.

NEW YORK, January THE out
standing feature OF the between-non-
day market In the cotton trade mere
this week was the evening up OF Jan
uary commitments incident TO the
issuing and stopping OF the first no
tees. These notices, representing
something over 100 900 bales Of cotton
for delivery next Monday, appetttvd 10
be in rather widespread demand. No
less than "a firms or houses were
credited with stopping notices, and the
January discount az compared with
March narrowed to about is points.
but widened out again slightly toward
the end of the week.
Both the closing frmness OF the old
December contracts during the pre-
vious week, and the stopping of this
weeks January notices tended to en-
phasize the comparative absence OF
selling pressure in the Southern spot
markets so far as the tenderable
grades are concerned. Lower grades
are supposed to be Offering more free
ly, but are also said to be attracting
a considerable trade or investment de-
mand, and as the movement OF cotton
from the fields has been slowed down
by recent unfavorable weather, there
has been some advance I'm the basis.
On the whole, therefore. reports
reaching here from the South have
been considered rather more favorable
to values than otherwise, and quite
aside from the near-month develop
ments here, the market has shown a
generally steady undertone. Private
cable advices claiming that the cotton
crop in China was turning out very
poorly. together with recent reports OF
reduced estimates for India, have en-
couraged expectations of an increased
demand from abroad for American
low grades and some authorities are
estimating this seasons probable con.
sumption Of American lint cotton from
Is to 15Iz million bales.
Improving weather conditions re-
ported in the South toward the end of
the week brought in a little selling.
but many think that any cotton re-
ceived from the fields with a renewal
of picking will be OF very low grade.
Owing to the unfavorable weather re-
ported since the middle of the month,
there has been a growing inclination
in some quarters to question whether
final gainings will equal the Govern
ment crop estimate.
At the same time bullish features
do not appear to have been strong
enough to have brought in much fresh
buying, and the trade would seem to
have been working for early new year
developments in the spot markets or
for coming crop prospects to take
shape.

Corn farmers, who have been get
ting around 20 cents a bushel for
their product, are continuing to COM
plain over the poor price. This COM
plaint is warranted to some extent,
but some growers managed to make
good profits this year by marketing
their corn on the hoof. How extern
sive this feeding to live stock has been
is illustrated by the fact that the
average weight of hogs received in
Chicago G',ring January was II
rounds heavier than the previous Jan.
uary,.x The season also has been
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1927-01-02

marked by the large number OF
heavy cattle marketed.
At present there is a tendency to-
ward O better balance between corn
and hog production, and therefore
between corn and hog prices. No un-
due surplus of corn exists this year
such as existed last year. The crop
is set at 1884 900. 900 bushels. against
2.905 900 900 bushels produced in 1925.
The carryover, however, was 100000
900 bushels, or one of the largest on
record. This resulted, in part, from the
general movement to have the farm
er hold his corn for better prices. The
result is that he is taking less for 1t
now than he could have had year
ago. There are prospects that more
corn will be needed to feed the larger
hog crop, but these requirements are
cut somewhat by the epidemic of hog
cholera, which caused considerable
loss to hogs this Fall.
Keen Argentine Competition.
The export situation in corn is not
so favorable. Early this year Argen-
tine corn competed strongly with
American for the Canadian trade, and
at the close of the year this competi-
ton again is keen. This means that
the domestic grower is going to have
to depend on the American market
for his grain rather than on the
foreign trade.
Oats prices have not fiuctuated
very much and continue at low levels.
around 40 cents. There is reason to
wonder why farmers continue to pro-
duce oats at such low prices, when
the domestic demand as we'll as ex-
port trade is being reduced year after
year. The dairy farmer, however.
finds a ready market for the produc-
ton on his place by grinding oats and
barley as a good milk-producing feed
during the time when silage Is gone.
The crop this season was set at
,282 900 900 bushels, compared with
,511 900 900 year ago. The crop is
of poor quality in parts, and this yield
may not be realized. Prices for May
oats are now about cents above a
year ago. Canadian oats crop was
small, and this may improve the
export demand. Germany also is ex-
pected to be in the market.
Provisions prices generally were
lower than a year ago. Lard was off
about 2 cents a pound, ribs and bellies
| showing a similar reduction. In
creased production of hogs and also
the cheaper and more plentiful supply
of lard substitutes cut down prices.
| The large cotton crop, with the In
creased production Of cottonseed oil,
! likewise increased the competition
from this substitute.
