tiful Lambs weighing over los
pounds are heavily discounted.
Total production of lamb and NUT
ton in 1851, according to the u. S.
department of agriculture, will be
about the same as this year, and
prices probably will advance in line
with the rise in incomes. A strong
price position seems assured for the
longer future as we'll Supplies of
lambs and wool cannot increase
much until floclxs have grown con-
siderably above present numbers.
WHEAT - Prices probably will
work moderately higher in the next
two months but the rise may be only
5 to 10 cents bushel. With the new
crop all under cover, current prices
below the loan value and an infla-
tionary outlook, offerings by produc-
ers are likely to shrink until prices
advance over the loan.
Prices are not likely to rise much
above support levels, however. Only
101,000,000 bushels had been placed
under loan by Sept. 80, so that free"
supplies are relatively large. Oct.
l stocks totaled 1,192,O00 bushels, or
100000 bushels more than last
year.
Winter wheat stands are mostly
good on substantially larger acre
age than last year, suggesting the
possibility of another big crop and
further increase in stocks next sea-
son.

Market Outlook
By GILBERT GUSLER

VERY STRONG demand for most
farm products is in prospect for 1851,
according to outlook specialists of
the u. S. department of agriculture.
Prices and incomes received by
farmers are likely to be substantially
higher than in the first half of 1850.
Higher costs of production and of
living, higher taxes and increasing
difficulties in obtaining supplies and
hired farm labor also are in prospect.
With higher prices and larger pro-
duction, cash receipts from farm
products probably will be up at least
10 percent and farm operators net
income may rise Is percent or more
from 1850, but is not likely to regain
the levels of either 1947 or 1948.
Government policies will favor full
production next year. Acreage con-
trolls are being loosened or removed
and any price supports or ceilings
are likely to be at levels that will
provide a strong incentive to pro-
duce.
This view assumes that the de-
tense program will be about as ex-
pected in October. If the war arena
spreads, demand for farm products
and upward pressure on prices will
grow accordingly.
CATTLE-Prices for better grades
probably will be steady to strong in
the near future. While prices for
these grades are likely to be lower
next spring, they may strengthen up
to midwinter. Supplies of such cat
tie, especially heavy weights, in
creased in early fall and are much
larger than last year, but reports
from finishers in leading feeding
states indicate moderate drop from
October to November and a more
substantial drop from November to
December in the number of fed cattle
to be marketed.
Holding cattle to use soft corn
probably will reduce the supply of
shortfeds up to midwinter. Prices
for medium and low grades of
slaughter cattle are likely to be
mostly steady to higher for the next
six months, due to declining supplies.
Demand for stockers and feeders
continues strong and any weakness
in prices is likely to be small.
Cattle slaughter probably will be
larger in 1851, with most of the in
creases in the second half of the
year, the u. S. Department of Agri-
culture states. The cattle population
| probably will continue to increase
as it is now large enough to provide
for both a moderate increase in
slaughter and a further buildup o.
numbers on farms and ranches. II
view of the prospect of larger bee.
output in 1851, the rise in cattle
prices over 1850 is likely to be mode
rate.
HoGS-Prices probably will rounc
the winter low point in the mex
month, although they may possibly

REA CONTRACT LET

THE INCOME COUNTY Electric
Cooperative, Inc, Circle, has let a
contract for construction of 20 miles
OF transmission line, the Rural Elec-
trification administration reports.
Amount of the contract is 500, 999. 80.
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1950-11-15

utilization for feed, processing and
exports is likely to be up 2 or 8 per-
cent, according, to the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture. Needs will be
great enough to cut into carryover
stocks during the year. Although
oats and barley carryover stocks
next July may be larger than this
year, the increase is likely to be more
than offset by decline of 100000
600 to 3OO,OOO,O00 bushels in the corn
carryover.
SEED-Forage seed costs for 1851
planting are likely to be lower than
in the past season, due to materially
increased supplies. Compared with
usual utilization, supplies of red and
sweet clovers, alfalfa, and orchard,
sudan and bluegrass seeds are par
ticularly large.
DAIRY PRODUCTS-Owing to
the prospective sharp increase in
consumer demand, the u. S. depart
ment of agriculture predicts that
prices for dairy products will be
moderately higher in 1851 than in
1850. Farmers probably will sell
more milk than ever before, but
sales of farm-separated cream are
likely to drop to record low. Dairy
mems expenses will rise less than
cash receipts and net returns prob
ably will increase.
POULTRY PRODUCTS - Owing
to large supplies compared with con-
sumption, prices for eggs and poul-
try are less likely than most COM
modities to participate in any gen.
eral price rise next year, the u. S.
department of agriculture says.
Numbers of layers may be down but
the reduction may be largely or fully
offset by increased egg production
per layer. Even if production is
smaller, it may not eliminate all
the surplus represented by govern
ment support purchases which were
about percent of production in
January-September, 1850.
Supplies of poultry meat, especially
broilers and turkeys are expected
to be large in the first few months
of 1851. High meat prices next year
would improve the competitive posi-
ton of poultry and induce somewhat
higher poultry prices.
PoTATOES-Production in 1851
probably will be considerably larger
than necessary for normal needs,
the u. S. department expects. With
no support, prices are likely to fall
considerably lower than in recent
years. If production is distributed
about the same as in recent years,
prices probably will be depressed
more in areas that have been the
principal contributors of the surplus.
