ture, then turn upward by late fall.
Offerings will be heavy during Oc-
tober, although less than usual at
that season. The below average late
crop and restrictions on shipments
of low grades and small potatoes
through marketing agreements will
tend to hold down supplies.
Good consumer volume and a lit
tie buying ahead by distributors
probably will prevent any extreme
price weakness. Offerings will fall
off sharply in November. A mod
crate price rise is probable during
the winter.
BEANS-Prices probably will sta
Billie neal or slightly below the
support levels. Pressure from the
new crop will be at its peak in the
next few weeks. With large sup
plies in sight, distributors and can
ners probably will stock up less than
usual and are likely to confine their
buying to price dips. Holding to
place under loan or purchase agree
ment appears advisable if support
prices cannot be obtained. U. S. 1
pintoes are being quoted to the trade
at 81 per 100-lb. bag, U. S. 1 Great
