Markets at a Glance

Demand-Continued industrial boom prom
ises sustained demand for farm products, but
will mean higher farm costs.
Cattle-Late demand for feeder cattle is ac-
tive.
notwithstanding slaughter will mean mod
erately lower market for next month or two.
Lambs-PriceS for feeder lambs and feed
give finishers favorable outlook.
W~ool-Domestic mill consumption in coming
year probably will be nearly three times do
nestle shorn and pulled wool production.
Wheat-Large exports and impounding for
loans probably will mean further price rise.
Feed grains - Supply per animal unit is
about one-fourth over last year, one-fifth
above average.
Flaxseed-Government support for 1949 crop
at not less than 80 percent of parity will be
primarily through loans.
Seeds-New crops total about one-fourth less
than last year and 10-year average.
Feeds-Output of high protein feeds per ami
10 to IL percent over 1937-46 average.
Hay-Supply per animal unit is about same
as last year and IL percent over 1937-46 aver
age.
Dairy products-Better consumer demand at
lower prices and continued low production
probably will stabilize market.
Eggs-Increasing supply of fresh eggs prob
ably have started seasonal decline.
Poultry-Large feed supply and favorable
feeding ratio are stimulating rapid increase
in commercial broiler production.
Potatoes-Government purchase of about As
million bushels of surplus and rising support
level encourage holding.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-11-15

pork will be necessary to move the
increased supply into consumption
or into storage.
LAMB prices probably will con-
tinue an irregularly upward trend
during the next three months. Sup
plies will decline materially as re-
ceipts shift from grass to fed lambs.
Active late fall demand for feeders
will add strength to the slaughter
lamb market.
Supplies of feeder lambs are less
than in 1947 and total feeding oper-
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-11-15

atoms are expected to be substan-
TALLY less than last year. Grazing is
poor in the wheat pasture areas but
recent showers may bring some i'm
provement. At current prices for
feeder lambs and feed, the outlook
for lamb finishing appears favor
able.
WOOL prices probably will hold
near recent levels. Foreign mar
kets have firmed up, and prices for
finer grades continue considerably
higher than for domestic woods. Do
mestic consumption of wool in the
year ahead probably will be some
what less than the 1000, 000, 900
pounds, grease basis, used in the past
year. However, domestic produc-
ton of shorn and pulled woods is es-
timated at about $50, 900, 900 pounds
in 1948 and is likely to drop to
about 270, 000, 900 to $4,000, 900
pounds in 1949.
WHEAT prices have advanced to
slightly above the loan value in
several terminal markets. but most
producers with wheat in storage
probably will hold for a further rise
or will hold until after the first of
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-11-15

POULTRY prices probably will
be fairly steady in the next few
weeks, but any rise during the win
ter is likely to be less than usual at
that season. Young chickens other
than pullets on farms ON Oct. 1 were
Is percent lower than a year AGO.,
and 35 percent less than the 1937-46
average. Consumer demand prob
ably will be strong during the holi-
days.
POTATO prices probably will
stiffen in the next few weeks and
move up to support levels in areas
where they are now below it. Stocks
not yet in winter storage will soon
be disposed of and the rise from Oc-
tober to January of As cents a hum
dred pounds in the support price
will encourage holding stored sup
plies.
BEAN prices probably will fluc-
tuate near current levels in the next
two or three months with some
strengthening in areas where prices
are below the loan value. The U. S.
department of agriculture has an
nounced a program of buying Great
Northern and pea beans. The crop
is the second largest on record and
export demand is expected to be
smaller than during the past five
or six years.

Market Outlook
By GILBERT GUSLER

the year for income tax reasons.
Hence, the movement to market
probably will continue to fall off
and visible supplies will shrink fur
Their under mill and export buying.
Government purchases will be
smaller after Dec. 1, but buying by
commercial exporters is likely to in
crease as exports appear to be
headed for a total of about 450,000,-
900 to ATS, 600, 900 bushels this sea-
son The quantity tied up under loan
or purchase contract or merely held
by producers will mean only moder-
ate pressure on the market for the
next five or six months.
Dry weather in the southwest has
been partly relieved and seedlings
elsewhere have a good start. The
crop outlook in other important
wheat-growing countries appears
mainly favorable.
FLAxSEED price support for the
1949 crop at not less than go percent
of the July 1, 1949, parity price,
will be primarily in the form of
loans, with direct purchases in Tex
as. Recent advances in oil meal
prices have increased crusher de-
mand for flaxseed. Total stocks on
Oct. 1 were 49, zoe, 900 bushels COM
pared with 33,400,O 900 last year, when
holdings were more than adequate
for the demand.
SEED crops + quite uneven
While production of alsike and red
clover was larger than last year.,
combined production of % kinds of
grass and legume forage and winter
cover crop seeds was about one
fourth below last year and the 1887
As average.
DAIRY prices probably will de-
velop more stability in the next
month or two and are likely to pro-
vide attractive returns to producers.
Production of milk is likely to con-
tinue to shrink until early Deem
Der, and any increase in the total
flow through February will be only
3 to 5 percent. Reduced wholesale
prices for butter, cheese and evap-
GRATED milk, when fully reflected al
retail, will stimulate consumption
and broaden the market for storage
stocks.
EGG prices probably have start
ed a seasonal decline. Storage stock.
have been moving well and a rather
satisfactory cleanup of holdings ap
pears probable. Supplies of fin,
fresh eggs are increasing and lowe
prices are necessary to move then
into consumption. Some consume
resistance is reported at recent higl
prices. Medium and lower grade
have been moving fairly well.
