WASHINGTON, Sept. AS
Secretary of Agriculture Claude
r. Wickard's '.more food for de-
Tense program moves into its
fourth month, some interesting
things are becoming apparent.
One of them is that the fellow
who last year bought himself a
little chicken ranch Just to get
away from it all and the farmer
who has been increasing his cat
tie herd of late. for lack Of some
thing better to do, are finding
thmselves riding the coattails of
big defense business into an I'M
expected BOOM
In other words, the butter and-
egg men are moving back to
Prosperity Row.
There are such comparatively
trivial things for instance as a
prospective shortage Of milking
machines because of priorities in
rubber and aluminium: sectional
farm labor shortages; disloca-
tions of markets through shift
ing populations to new defense
industry and training centers.
But two things stand out: "a
domestic consumption is increas-
ing much more rapidly than
Agriculture Department experts
estimated four months ago and
f2l it is becoming apparent now
that export demands, under the
lend lease program, for certain
essential processed milk and egg
products, may be well above the
original guesses.
The best proof Of all this, with
out burdening you with all the
statistical dope available, is
prices Overall dairy prices on
the farm on June Is (the last
figure aVailabIe) were q per
cent above year ago--and still
are rising. The farm price of
eggs on the same date was 23.2
cents dozen "a full S per cent
above the departments parity
price, and 8.S cents dozen
higher than year ago.
Experts Are Concerned
Behind these prices texcept for
butteT) lies Is to 25 per cent
increase in domestic consumption
and export increases Ia the last
year, which range from practic-
ally nothing at all eon shell eggs
and butter, for exanplet TO such
startling things as an increase
from 32.441 cases Of evaporated
milk from January to April, 1870,
to 493. I96 cases IN the same Pc
Rod this year; and for the same
months. an increase from 648, 1876
pounds of dry skim milk to O.
35l,875 pounds not to mention
more than $50 per cent increase
in export of egg products.
Over at the Department Of
Agriculture the experts are stay
ing up nights trying to figure
out what all Of this will mean to
their program and how long they
can keep public squaWks and

BUTTER-AND-EGG MEN MOVING
BACK into PROSPERITY ROW


year ago, it is true, bat stocks
on hand are twice what they
were last year. there's no export
demand. and during the months
when butter should go down, it
skyrocketed to 20 per cent over
last years June prices. Their only
off-the-record guess is that may
be spectators have gotten into
the churn.
Don't think, though, that John
ny Farmer and the bigger butter
and egg men have been asleep. By
June, they had almost met Wick
ards challenge to increase milk
production 8 per cent and there
only remained the kinks of di-
verting the needed milk products
Qike skim milk which ordinarily
is. fed to hogs and calves to
new demand channels.
Ahead OF Requests
Increasing the egg supply inn
mediately isn't easy, but already
they have tossed nearly 3 per
cent more eggs into the market
than in the first part of 1870
(Wickard only asked for 6 per
cent more in IS months). And
there are two statistical points
which indicate Johnny Farmer is
even ahead Of the Department q
Agriculture. Come June, he had 8
per cent more chicks bobbing
around the barnyard and had
doubled his orders, over a year
ago. for chicks to be delivered in
late summer and early fall
Adding all of it up. it seems to
come down to the fact that agri-
culture experts needn't start
Matching gray hairs until the pub
lie and price control agencies be-
gin 4 pincers movement on rising
consumer costs. Until then. their
only worry viii be trying to ex-
plain 10 the surplus crop farmers
why so MANY Of their buttersa and
egg neighbors are moving to-
