ply. Export sales continue light.
However, poor new crops in Argen-
tina and Australia promise some i'm
provement in foreign demand in the
last half of the season.
SEEDS - Prices for alfalfa and
clover seeds probably will advance
from the low levels reached during
the fall on prospects of continued
large supplies. us. average prices
per cwt. to growers on October 10,
with prices year previous in paren-
thesis, were as follows: alfalfa seed
$22 ($2940); alsike clover, $3.50
($31.30); red clover, $24.40 ($30.80;
sweet clover, 1921 1929; timothy
$12 ($13.6O). With prices down, it's
a good time to shift to the most de-
sirable classes and improved varie-
ties of forage seeds.
DAIRY PRODUCTS - Prices are
due to begin a seasonal decline in
the next month or six weeks. The
milk flow is passing the low point.
EGGS-The main trend of prices
will continue downward until late
winter or early spring.
TURKEYS-Prices for the rest of
the crop probably will average
slightly higher than last year. With
costs lower, profits will be some
what greater than in 1852 and prob
ably will encourage small increase
in production in 1854.
POTATOES-Pr gains are likely
to be slow and meager unless the
crop estimate is again lowered ap-
probably. Present indications are
that total supplies are above require
ments and that storing has been rela-
lively heavy.
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1953-11-15

FARM PRICES and farm income
continued in a downward trend
through October. The index of prices
received by farmers on October Is
was $50, the lowest since June 1850
just before the Korean war began.
All but 5 per cent of the Korean
advance has now been lost. The
average of farm prices in the next
year may hold near current levels,
say us. Department of Agriculture
economists.
CATTLE-Prices for the upper
grades can be expected to hold up
fairly we'll for another month or six
weeks, then start downward trend
that will continue until late winter
or spring. Supplies of long-feds from
the Cornbelt, which are still moving
to market in heavy volume, will
taper off in the next few weeks.
Short-feds will gradually become
more plentiful, however, and will
improve in finish as the season pro-
crosses.
Prices for lower grades are likely
to hold near current levels in the
near future then work higher to-
ward spring. Marketing of grass
cattle has not been as heavy as ex-
pected thus far. With range feed
supplies short, marketing may con-
tinue near recent volume in early
winter, but will diminish in late
winter and early spring. Govern
nent purchases of beef will support
prices for extreme low grades of
cattle.
HOGS-Prices are near the early
winter low point, but are likely to
remain rather low for several weeks.
In the last Is years, average prices
in January at Chicago have varied
from so cents a cwt. lower to nearly
So higher than in the preceding De-
| cember.
LAMBS-Prices will work higher
in the next three or four months
Heavy slaughter during the fall has
been partly at the expense of future
supplies. Feeder lamb prices have
strengthened recently because Of
buying to put on beet tops and wheat
pasture, but still appear to be at safe
levels. Breeding ewes also appear
reasonably priced.

Everything now is signed,

The latest move in the inter-

days after the American field of
contenders for the championship
was cut to two. They are Paddy
Young of New York, who elirni-
mated Ernie Durando of Bay

Carl (Bobo) Olson of Honolulu.
Christenberry Protests.
In New York; Bob Christen-
berry, chairman of the New York

GIobetrotters Streak
Ends al BOA, but They
Fill Garden Twice
by the Asseeioted Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 30.-The
Harlem Globetrotters no longer
have a long winning streak be-
hind them. but the Trotters
aren't sad.
The 'Trotters opened a 81
game basketball series with the
College All-Stars in Madison
Square Garden yesterday and
filled the spacious Garden twice.
The Trotters won the first game
in the afternoon, 70-62, before
18,471 fans. The All-Stars won
the night game, 69-65, before
18,473.
Next stop is Toronto tonight
and before the tour plays in its
10th and final city. a lot of cash
will be in the register. So the
fact that the Trotters had their
victory string snapped after 304
games IN last nights contest is
relatively unimportant. Most of
those victories were foregone
conclusions, anyway, with the
opposition in most cases just
putting up token resistance. The
real drawing power of the Trot-
tiers usually is their clowning
activities.
The series with the All-Stars,
however, promises to be for real.
It was a similar team of all
stars who last beat the Trotters
last April IL. After that the
world-famed Negro stars went
on another Of their worldwide
tours.
Larry Hennessey of Villanova
and Jack Molinas of Columbia
appear to be the two players the
Trotters will have to watch par
ticularly in the future. Hen
neSsey has two-game total of
81 points and Molinas has %.
Ermer Robinson of the Trotters
has 80 points.
The Trotters ran up an early
lead and coasted in the first
game. but it was the college
squad that started fast last
night. running up q 1872 lead
before the Trotters got going.
Ahead. 5S-45. with four min
utes remaining, the All-Stars
still almost lost it, as the Trot-
ters. kept pecking away until
they crept to within one point
at CLEO. Here Hennessey scored
a field goal and Molinas added
two more to put the game out
Of reach Of the Harlemites.
The Trotters didn't even have
time to clown.

The Mats surprising display Of

son opens, but for the moment
they're throwing a fright into
American League clubs with

The leagues worst hitting club

the first division most of the
season strictly on pitching and

Some Of the Mats home runs

But there's no dismissing the
fact that Eddie Yost, Jim Bushy.

hitter last year, is hitting .295.
Busby. .236 last season, is bat
ting .304. Vernon. .251 last year,
now is 1856. Coan, who skidded

Jensen, who batted a creditable
.280, is the sensation of the group
at .407.
Those figures mean nothing,
since everybody starts fresh
April 13 when the Mats tangle
with the Yankees in the opener.
Nevertheless. Harris likes to gaze
upon them. His club dropped
numerous games last year due to
lack of hitting. Now Bucky is
looking at a club with punch and
liking what he sees.
The Mats have crashed at least
one home run in each of their

Charles 9-5 Favorite
To Win Over Layne
In Wednesday Bout
By the Asseeieted Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 30.-They're

Ezzard Charles, former heavy
weight champion, has been made
a 9-to-5 favorite to win his rub
ber" 10-rounder with Rex Layne
at San Francisco's Winterland
Wednesday night.
Charles stopped the Utah
strong boy in II rounds a year
and a. half ago. but Rex squared
accounts by edging the Cincin-
natl Negro at Ogden, Utah, last
August 8. That was the fight
in which Referee Jack Dempsey.
the only official, came up with an
odd score-two rounds for Layne,
one for Charles and seven even.
Charles has won six in a row
since his defeat by Layne and
he has to make it seven to keep
in the running for a shot at the
Rocky Marciano-Jersey Joe WAL
colt winner. Beaten by Roland
La StarZa on February 13. Layne
knows this is a must" fight for
him, too.
The bout will get under way
at 10 pm. (EST) and will be
telecast coast. to coast by CHS.

fourth-ranking middleweight, is
rated 2-to-1 shot over ring
rusty Jimmy Beau of New
