Increase in Livestock
Slaughter Supplies
Is Predicted
Better Demand Likely
To Offset Depressing
Effect on Prices
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
The Agriculture Department said
today that slaughter supplies of
livestock during the summer and
fall months were expected to be
larger than year ago. Stronger
consumer demand, 1t said, however,
may tend to offset price-depressing
effects of increased marketings.
Because of last years huge pig
crop and the unfavorable relation
between corn and hog prices from
the feeding standpoint. many farm
ers were said to be moving hogs to
market at lighter weights and to be
disposing of some of their breeding
stock
Marketings du}lhg the first half
OF the current season were reported
to have been % per cent larger
than for the same period last
season.
Rejecting the supply situation,
hog prices declined in early April
to the lowest level since the summer
of 1884
This price and supply situation,
the department said, is expected to
cause this years spring and fall
pig crops to be smaller than last
year. Such development would be
reflected in smaller pork supplies
in 194l.
The department said that despite
German occupation Of Denmark, the
export outlet for pork and lard in
the next several months was not ex-
pected to be much larger than it was
year earlier. Denmark has been
an important source Of supply for
Great Britain.
Supplementing increased hog sup
plies are larger marketings of cattle.
The department said the market
movement of cattle during January
through March was much larger
than during the corresponding Pc
riod last year. The number of cat
tie on feed for market in the corn
belt on April was reported at about
2 per cent larger than on the same
date last year.
The department said development
OF the early lamb crop during March
was above average and much better
than during the unfavorable March
OF last year. An abundance Of feed
in California was said to be en-
couraging the holding of early lambs
for later marketing.
