won't be ready for slaughter until
late summer and fall next year.
Feeder costs at markets in July
October averaged $3.50 cwt. below
a year previous. Feed costs also are
lower than year ago.
HOGS-Prices will soon make bot
tom at the best level at this season
since 1913. Receipts are still increas-
ing and are reaching the seasonal
peak unusually early, but packers
have geared up for heavy slaughter
and will begin to buy for storage.
Pork and lard stocks were cleaned
up much more closely this fall than
usual. Once the uptrend in prices is
established, it probably will continue
until late February or March.
LAMBS - Prices will struggle
moderately higher in the next two
or three months. Lighter supplies of
lambs by midwinter, less competi-
ton from other meats and poultry
after December, better consumer de-
mand for lamb and mutton in cold
weather and improvement in finish
of the lambs offered for sale will adj
vance the average level of prices.
Feeder lambs are largely cleaned up
in the west.
WHEAT - Prices probably will
reach somewhat higher levels later
in the season. With 427 million BUSH
, els owned by the CCC in early No
venber and $50 million bushels from
the 1853 crop under loan or pur-
chase agreement on Oct. Is and the
loan books still open until Jan. 81,
free" supplies of some classes and
grades probably will become tight
enough to force their prices closer
to the loan redemption level. High
protein and durum wheats are ur
to or above loan levels, but ordinary
protein grades and soft red winter

PASSAGE OF TIME brings more
evidence that the boom in economic
activity and employment is past the
peak, but confidence remains strong
that any dip in the next year will
not be drastic.
While the trend has turned down.
ward, only minor decline in de-
tense spending is in prospect in 1854.
Government agencies forecast that
new construction will be only about
2 per cent less than in 1858. The nor
NAL current needs of the growing
consumer population with high buy
ing power will sustain activity in
many consumer goods industries.
Hence, domestic demand for farm
products next year probably will be
nearly as strong as this year. For
eign demand will be less than two or
three years ago, but probably will
hold near current levels. The gen.
eral level of farm prices probably
will show more stability than in the
last two years. However, it is not
likely to recover much of the loss in
that period.
CATTLE-Prices for upper grades
will work moderately lower while
undergrades will have a generally
upward trend in the next four or five
months.
Prospects for winter cattle feeding
continue rather promising. Numbers
fed will be smaller than last year.
July-October shipments of stockers
and feeders into nine Cornbelt states
were "a per cent smaller than year
ago. The decline in numbers will be
much less than that figure, however.
Areas outside the Cornbelt also will
feed fewer than last season. Buyers
are taking an increased proportion OF
calves and stocker yearlings which

wheat are still moderately below the
loan in some areas and substantially
below it in others.
FEED GRAINS-Prices probably
will work somewhat higher in the
next month or two. Light sales by
producers, large placements of corn
under the support program as long
as prices are so far below the loan
level, good returns from feeding to
livestock and poultry and substan-
tial export sales are strengthening
influences. However, a lower rate
of utilization of feed grain at present
than year ago, continued sales OF
corn by the Commodity Credit Corp,
and larger imports of oats and barley
from Canada than last year will
hamper the rise.
FLAxSEED-Pricesa are being sus-
tanned near the loan value by the
large amount tied up in the support
program. ''Free" stocks are still
relatively heavy, however. With
prices near the net loan value on
flaxseed put into commercial storage,
sales at current levels may be about
enough to satisfy demand.
DAIRY PRoDUCTS-Prices will
have an irregular downward trend
during the increase of about so per
cent in the milk flow in the next six
months. The decline in butter prices
will be rather small unless the sup
port level is lowered after March 81.
In spite of drouth, October produc-
ton of milk was about per cent
over last year and a record high for
the month.
EGcS-Prices will gradually work
lower in the next three or four
months. Production will increase
more than one third from November
to March. 1t will be larger than q
year previous because of a small In
crease in number of layers and

from present levels. The supply o.
eggs for storage is likely to be larger
than last winter and spring. Prices
in late winter and spring may aver
age per cent or more lower than ;
year previous. Feed costs probabl.
will be lower also. Returns owe
feed cost probably will continue fav
orable although the margin will b
smaller than this year.

Nufritional Analyses

During the last five years chemical
analyses have been made of the
blood from cows on an experimental
pasture at Miles City, where soil and
grass analyses also have been made.
This project is in cooperation with
the Departments of Animal Industry
and Range Management, Agronomy
and Soils and Chemistry.
One objective is to determine
whether the cattle show a deficiency
of any blood nutritient on the forage
of the experimental pasture which is
typical of, eastern Montana range.
Blood samples have been taken from
80 cows every % days for five years.
They have been analysed for phos-
phorus, calcium, magnesium, caro-
tene and vitamin A. The results are
being compared with the soil and
grass analyses, and a full report
should be out next year.
Redwater Disease of Cattle
The redwater disease of cattle is
under investigation. The vaccine now
available is not satisfactory because
the immunity that is developed lasts
for only six months. This necesSi-
tates a vaccination program every
six months in affected herds. The
Montana Veterinary Research Lab
oratory is studying methods for the
production of better vaccine.
Studies are being carried out to de-
ternnine the methods of transmission
of the disease from one animal to the
other.
The laboratory is trying to deter
mine the cause of white muscle dis
ease in lambs and calves. White
muscle disease symptoms and LESSONS
were produced in calves maintained
on a vitamin E-deficient synthetic
milk diet. Numerous analyses are
being made on the early milks of
cows and sheep in white muscle areas
to determine the vitamin E content.
Urinary Calculi
Urinary calcuh or waterbelly of
steers has been one of the major cat
tie disease projects of the Montana
Veterinary Research Laboratory. IT
was started several years ago, with
the objective of determining the
cause of the development of the
stones which produced waterbelly
A large number of the stones have
been analysed and found to consist
principally of silica.
An experiment was carried ou
with II steer calves to determine
whether lack of sufficient water wa
an important factor in producing thu
stones. The calves were held thre,
months on the least amount of waite
compatible with life, but urine analy
sis showed no evidence of stone for

The effect of extreme vitamin
deficiency on calcui formation is be
ing investigated at present. Invent

winter climatic conditions on the
coccidia outside of the animals
body.
Black Scours
Experimental evidence obtained at
the laboratory shows that large doses
of phenothiazine is effective against
Trichostrongylus scours (black
scours) in lambs. Studies are being
carried on to learn more about the
habits of the worm under various en-
vironmental conditions SO that bet
ter methods of prevention can be
applied.

Regional Road Authority
Creation Seen Doubtful

Brig. Gen. James A. Anderson,
U. S. A. (retired). chairman OF
the Virginia State Highway
Commission, expressed doubt
yesterday that a regional road
authority could be established
any time soon.
The commissioner stated his
views in answer to a question
posed at a meeting of the Dis
trict Advisory Board of the
American Automobile Associa-
ton. The luncheon meeting was
held at the Mayf1ower Hotel.
Gen. Anderson said much
thought must be given the enor-
nous problem of providing ade-
quate roads for the heavy traffic
load. He urged members of the
AAA to suggest ways to solve it..
The commissioner said the
$4,000 miles of secondary roads
in Virginia offer District motor
lists inviting and scenic drives,
a welcome change from crowded
thoroughfareS.
State Senator Charles r. Fem
wick of Arlington, candidate for
Governor. was a guest. He ex-
pressed doubt that Virginia
would be willing to abandon its
paya-s-you-go building policy for
the bond issue type of program
adopted in Maryland.

forcement of civil rights laws.
Mr.. McGranery was called bv

cases in that city.
The former Attorney General
told the group. which is headed
oy Representative Heating, Re-
publican, of New York that he
frst learned of an "alleged
agreement" between the Justice
Department and New York police
last January. shortly before he
left office.
Mr.. McGranery said he was
told by FBI Director j. Edgar
Hoover then that FBI agents in
New York were told they could
not interview policemen involved
IN brutality-civil rights cases.
I could not understand that
there could be such an agree.

He told of directing Assistant
Attorney General Charles Muir.
ray, then in charge of the Grim.
lnal Division, to notify former
United States Attorney Myles
Lane of New York to advise DO
lice officials that if there was
such an agreement, it is now
terminated"
He said Mr.. Murray, at the
time, said he knew of no such
agreement.
The former Attorney General
said he instructed Mr.. Murray
to tell New York police to CO.
operate in Federal investigations
OF civil rights cases.
And, Mr.. McGranery said, his
orders were that failing police
cooperation" the Government
was to begin grand jury pro-
ceedingS.
