Southern Farm Market
Summary

Many southern farm products
declined during the past week in
fluenced by war news, increased
marketings, or changes in ceiling
price regulations, according to the
War Food Administration.
Cotton prices early in the week
reached the lowest levels since No
vember %, 1912, but later advances
offset most of the loss. New York
March futures closed on Dec. 4 at
1915 pound.
Hog markets were featured by
the heaviest weekly arrivals in
years, resulting in serious conges-
ton at several midwestern markets
and at Louisville, KY. In the
Southern Region A few points in
the Georgia-Alabama-Fl Florida soft
hog area reported supplies slightly
in excess of immediate slaughter
requirements Wherever supplies
become excessive, producers should
contact market agencies before
moving hogs from the farm. Prices
held at support levels on good and
choice 200 to 30 pound butchers
but were weak to lower on other
weights. Tops closed: in the
southeastern area at $12.25-13.25,
Richmond $1385, North Carolina
cash buying stations $13.3O-13.55,
Nashville $780,
Cattle prices had an undertone
of strength on fairly active trad
ing, despite continued heavy re-
ceipts at most markets. Common
and medium grades of steers and
heifers brought $7.50-1050 in the
southeastern are, and $875-11.75 at
Nashville
Egg and live poultry prices in
the South remained at ceiling lev
els, with demand in excess of sup
plies. Markets in other section of
the country evidenced some irreg-
ularities on eggs due to the con-
tinuous reduction in ceiling lev
els, and on poultry, as result of
lower ration points for meat which
tended to reduce the demand for
| fryerS and broilerS.
