LOS ANGELES, July 6. - Des-
pite the distress which has over
taken almost all lines of agricul-
tural production, there is one "one
spot"-and that is the hog market.
With low prices of grains, the mid
die western farmer will manage to
pull through Il poor price season
largely because of his continued
faith in hog production. Prices of
almost all other farm commodities
have taken a serious drop-vet the
demand for hogs appears to be al
most Unsuitable and the volume of
porkcrS arriving on the markets
continue to sell at very satisfaet-
orv prices to the producer.
As a matter of fact, hog feeding
has been on Il profitable basis. in
relation with feed costs. over n
long period of years. This has been
true in the middle west and equally
true in the far west.
II is difficult to understand why
California and other western states
do not raise enough hogs to take
care of home demands. The west
crn country raises Il world of good
hog feeds and allows great quaint
ties OF Gull fruits to go to waste,
merely because there is no "hog
sentiment" in districts which are
to a great degree in the depths of
ovr-production of other crops.
OF all agricultural commodities,
there are none that offer more
stable market than pork. Over an
average of the past five years,
there have been very few times
when grain-fcd hogs would not
bring at least 10 cents Il pound on
the coast markets, and many hogs
have been sold at far higher prices.

since il was first compiled in 1928
II is believed that this reflects the
decline in business activity. At l6O
