Hog Prices

HOS IELCeS
After an unsettled market had
Topped rs million dollars off of the
value of the nations hog crop, high
err bids by packers stemmed the
downward spiral of prices.
The packers action followed War
Food administration hints that the
government would cut subsidy pay
ments, amounting to $3.50 per hum
dredweight, if average prices for
good and choice CULTS and barrows
were allowed to drop below a $3.50
per hundredweight average. Lower
grade hogs, however, would not be
included.

were compelled to pay ceiling prices
for many shipments just to keep
thaSr plants busy -4-.

Of frozen fruits and vegetables and
packaged frozen fish. 49,
The total quantity Of these prod

houses will be limited to the guam
tity stored on October /, 1913.
This limitation was put into eff.
feet, VITA said, because storage
space must be assured for products
most essential to the war, particu-
larly meats and poultry needed by
the armed services.
Oncials said the limit on frozen
fruits and vegetables was made
necessary by the tremendous growth
Of the frozen food industry, leading
to what they termed the use of q
disproportionate share of freezer
space for these commodities. The
