figures were responsible for further

mate for record crop Of 1s,243, 900

attributed largely TO limited Southern

Although the trade expected an in

cation of 17,573,oo0 bales, the gain
OF $4,000 bales was larger than had
been anticipated. Prices lost but IL

RICHMOND. Va. Nov. 13.-Bumper
crops were predicted for Virginia this

also above the flve-year average.
The report showed the condition of
various crops as follows:
Corn: Average yield reported to be 26
bushels per acre. which is slightly greater
than the October forecast and the largest
yield since 1881.

cate the production will be slightly greater

Chicago Prices Are Boosted
Sharply by Reports of

BY JOHN p. BOUGHAN,
Associated Press Market Editor.

CHICAGO, Nov. 13.-Acute anxiety
over reports Of seldom-equaled de-
structive frosts in Argentina, adding
to crop ruin from drought and rust
there, is setting wheat speculation
afiame.
In various quarters. talk prevails
that world wheat markets have now

Evidence, too, that Argentinas wheat
carryover from the preceding yield will
be almost nil has become increasingly
important in view of advices telling of
new wholesale crop deterioration.
Latest reports meanwhile indicate
the outlook is for large percentage of
lightweight, inferior-quality wheat in
some sectors Of Argentina that here
tofore had the best promise.
Compared with one week back, Chi
cago wheat values this morning ranged
az Az cents bushel higher. with
corn varying from IL cents off to q
up, oats 1s-A advanced, rye at 3A-
594 bulge. and provisions unchanged
TO Is cents dearer.
So much has apparently depended
on the Southern hemisphere garner
ing liberal surplus of wheat this sea-
son that crop disaster news from Ar
gentina has all of sudden established
itself as the dominant trade factor.
Incidentally, the point is made that
the course Of the Buenos Aires wheat
market for some time has shown but
little confidence a big Argentina crop
was being raised. A significant further
circumstance attracting notice is that
February delivery of wheat at Buenos
Aires is selling at a premium over
Chicago futures, indicating, traders
say, enlarged European demand ahead
for United States hard winter wheat
via the Gulf Of Mexico.
European wheat importers are gen.
orally regarded here as having been
banking heavily on generous new-crop
harvests south Of the Equator. Sur
prise developments, however, now seem
to be turning demand to United States

sible the next few months than during

Shipping Inspection for
Fruit and Vegetables

This is the fifteenth year of the
federal shipping point inspection
service on fresh fruits and vege-
tables, administered by the bureau
of agricultural economics. Nearly
five times as many carloads of these
commodities were inspected at ship
ping points in 1886 as during 1923,
the first full year this service was
available.
During the first years the service
was available in only a few states
and only during the harvesting sea-
son of certain products. Today it
is available during the entire year,
under cooperative agreements with
the state, in California, Colorado,
Florida, Idaho, Louisiana, Oregon,
Texas, Utah, and Washington.
In other states, with the exception
of New Mexico, Kentucky, and Yer
mont, where no cooperative agree
ments are in effect, the service is
offered during the movement of the
major fruits and vegetables if the
volume for inspection is sufficient to
prevent prohibitive costs to users.
In nearly all parts of the country
the service is sef-sustaining. A few
states have small appropriations
which are used to supplement the
fees collected.
The United States Department of
Agriculture receives from the. in
spection fees only enough to cover
the cost of supervision and general
overhead expenses.

BOARDER HEN NOT
WORTH FEED; GULL
Non-Producers Will Bring
No Profit From Eggs.

By DR.. W. c. Thompson. Poultry Husband
man. Rutgers University.-WNU Service.
Don't feed boarders if it is the
aim to maintain high egg produc-
ton during the summer months.
Egg prices will probably begin to
advance soon, but in view Of pres
ent grain prices, the hope of profit
in egg farming lies chiefly in keep
ing egg production at relatively high
levels.
Gull the laying focks carefully,
removing birds which have stopped
production. Such birds are early
molters with yellow augmentation on
shanks and beaks and with with
cred, dry combs.
Garry on the same feeding pro-
gram as in winter and provide an
ample water supply. There should
be no let-down in feeding, for it re-
quires lots of good food to produce
eggs no matter what the season.
Do not change rations in summer.
Keep the nests clean, sparsely lit
tered, well ventilated and sufficient
in number to furnish one nest for
every five hens.
Gather eggs at noon and in late
afternoon, preferably using wire
baskets which permit a circulation
of air and rapid cooling. Store eggs
in cool, somewhat moist room and
market them frequently during hot
weather.
Remove any male birds-except
when eggs for Matching may be still
desired-and produce only infertile
eggs for table use.
Good quality stock is necessary
to get the best results in summer
egg production regardless of fine
management. If present stock is
questionable as to breeding, perhaps
the coming fall will offer good
opportunity to change.
