prospect for 1948-49, according to
the department.
LAMB prices probably will con-
tinue on a relatively high level in
the immediate future, although all
the advance in the past month may
not be retained. A steady to lower
trend is likely by June or early July
when southeastern springers will
move in volume, and California
lambs held back for finishing be-
cause of drouth in late winter and
early spring will be ready for mar
ket. Texas grass-fat aged lambs and
yearlings probably will move freely
in both May and June. Dressed
lamb will meet increasing competi-
ton from poultry by midsummer.
WOOL prices to producers prob
ably will be steady to slightly high
er, depending partly or how large
the military orders are. Some mills
are showing a cautious attitude on
inventories but all fine and half
blood staple woods are being bought
as fast as offered at levels above

Markets at a Glance

Prices-Farm prices probably VIII average
lower in next IL months, but industrial prices
may work moderately higher.
Cattle-Advancing trend on upper grades,
lower trend on lower grades will dominate
summer market.
Hogs-Heavy supply is probable in next 80
days but light supply and material price rise
are likely in late summer.
Lambs-Steady to lower trend Is probable by
June or early July.
WooI-Brisk demand continues for fine and
half-blood woods at prices above government
selling levels; CCC remains best market for
medium woods.
Wheat-Export program for season has been
increased to 49,, 600, 900 bushels, but old crop
stocks are more than ample.
Feed Grains-Industrial and feeding demand
is slow; temporary tightness may recur because
of small stocks.
Flaxseed-Some government buying of 1inseeo
oil has been necessary to support prices.
~Seeds-Dealers report generally satisfactory
spring trade and low carryovers.
Feeds+Demand remains slightly below nor
NAL due to reduced dairy, meat animal and
poultry numbers.
Hay-Prices probably will work lower as
livestock goes on grass and early cuttings be-
come available.
Dairy production will
bring lower markets, but prices will hold above
last year.
Eggs-Continued light hatchings point to
high fall egg market.
Poultry-Light production probably will
minimize seasonal price weakness in early
summer.
Potatoes-Heavy shipments in late May and
June appear probable.

Market Outlook

is being marketed in volume. But,
slaughtering margins continue quite
attractive and have stimulated all
out operations where not hampered
by labor trouble.
The USDA has asked farmers to
raise at least 10 percent, or 5000, 900,
more pigs this fall than in. 1947 to
maintain total meat supplies. A
more favorable hog-feed ratio is in

MAY 7, 1948

FARMERS SEEM to be assured of
a sustained high level of domestic
consumer buying power for a con-
siderable period ahead. Action of
the stock market ever since the
rearmament program was an
nounced suggests that the industrial
outlook is considered quite favor
able.
While the industrial outlook ap-
pears strong and prices for indus
trial products may rise moderately
in the coming year, it eel I'M
likely that a new inflationary up
swing in prices for farm products
is brewing. Increased domestic pro-
duction from a better growing sea-
son than in 1947 and reduced needs
for grain exports because of larger
European crops are likely to mean
a somewhat lower price level for
farm products, owe the next year,
even if industry continues at boom
levels. The April index of prices re-
ceived was POI, an increase of 3 per-
cent over March and 5 percent over
last year but S percent under the
peak reached last January.
High industrial employment from
the European aid and armament
programs will prolong the shortage
of farm labor. Nationally, April l
wage rates paid to farm labor aver
aged about 5'percent higher than a
year ago and 1862 percent of the
April 1858 level.
CATTLE prices in the next four or
five months are likely to be domi-
mated by a gradual uptrend on good
and choice slaughter grades. This
will reverse the action of the past
four months when lower grades
gained on the better kinds. Due to
greatly reduced numbers of cattle
on feed and increased receipts of
low grades attracted by high prices
in April, the change of trend started
earlier than usual. Short supplies
of granted cattle and increased
feeder demand from prospects of a
larger corn crop next fall probably
will cushion the decline in grass cat
tie prices during the summe and
early fall.
The strike influence has beer
waning as slaughter in non-struck
plants expanded and some strike.
bound plants resumed partial oper.
ations. Combined production of al
meats under federal inspection ha.
recovered to only 5 to 10 percent un
der the pre-strike level and non
inspected slaughter probably has in
creased. If threats to extend tn
strike to many small plants are car
ried out, the disruption of market
ing and slaughtering of livestocl
may be intensified once more.
HOG prices will hinge largely O.
strike developments. Receipts prob
ably will increase in late May an
early June when the fall pig Gro
