SteeIs Take Lead
By Roder Winqet
Assoeiated Press Finaneial Writer

NEW YORK, Sept. 2l.-A selec-
tive recovery in the stock market
today pulled prices out of a gen.
orally downward movement.
A very active start witnessed q
continuation of yesterdays decline
which sent the list down to the low
est in five months, but within q
short time the pace moderated and
prices began a comeback.
Steels were the leader In the
climb, turning from a fractionally
lower position to about the same
level on the top side. Rails were
more hesitant in following, but plus
signs tilted the balance up.
Motors remained mixed as did
utilities. oils and aircraft. Chem.
icals made slight gains which held
firm.
Among the better performers were
Santa Fe, Northern Pacific, United
States Steel, Youngstown Sheet &
Tube, Montgomery Ward, Du Pont
Nickel Plate, Gulf Oil and Trans.
continental & Western.
Tending lower were Oliver Corp.
Schenley. Philip Morris, United
States Gypsum, Union Pacific, Mis-.
sion Corp, and Glenn Martin.

For Pork Production

AS soon as they get the l94o
corn crop shucked, Ohio farmers
will have some spare time to de-
eide how many pigs they should
raise in 1949. nj. C. Smith, spec
ialist in farm management, Ohio
State University, says the size of
the pig crop could be planned
easily if the farmers knew
whether or not there would be
a shooting war, whether meat
will be exported, whether city
incomes will stay up and wheth-
er upward trends in population
will continue.
Mr.. Smith explains that the
single factor of workmen's in
come is a big issue in selling
meat. The average annual
slaughter of hogs in 1859 was
57,0OO,0G0 head and pork was al
most a drug on the market. The
slaughter in 1948 will be about
II, 100000 head of hogs but pork
prices are high now and con-
sumers think meat is scarce.
A dollar would buy five or six
pounds of pork in 1885 for each
pound it will buy today, but the
average per capita consumption
of pork was 48 pounds in 1885
and it will be about 81 pounds
this year. Buyers who do not
have a nickle will not spend 1C
cents a pound for pork chops
and the price of pork is based
more upon what buyers will pay
,, than upon what it costs farmers
to produce the meat.
J This University specialist
I points out that the cost of corr
makes up half or more of the tot,
al expense of producing pork sc
, the price per bushel for corn is
important to the farmer who is
figuring how many brood sow!
to keep for spring litters. Con.
ditions now indicate cheaper
corn for pork production in 1874!
than has been available for sew
eral years.
The difference between r.,
| 100000 and 95,0O0,00O head o
hogs is about 325,000,000 bushels
of corn. The 1948 corn crol
should provide a carryover o
700,00O,000 bushels or more o
corn on October /, 1949, so ther'
will be plenty of corn to fattel
a lot more hogs than have beer
raised in 1948. Mr.. Smith be
lieves the net profit from porl
production in the next five year
will depend upon the number o
hogs raised, and the number cal
easily be expanded beyond mar
ket demands by 1851 or 1852.
