price drop from late summer to early
winter is likely to be quite steep.
Peak of the movement of fall pigs
is likely to occur by early May.
LAMBS-Prices are likely to reach
slightly higher levels in the next two
months. Supplies probably will fall
slightly with offerings of fed lambs
declining a little faster than spring
lamb arrivals increase. The early
lamb crop may not be quite as large
as a year ago but a high proportion
probably will be ready for slaughter
when marketed. However, buyers
appear eager for the early lambs in
California and Arizona.

March. The new clip will swell the
supply in the next three months.
Sales of cloth continue slow and lat

WHEAT-Sman free stocks COM
pared with requirements for food,
seed, feed and exports during the
rest of the season are still the dom
mating market factor. Prices prob
ably will have to go to levels that
will induce redemption of part of the
loan stocks, at least in the hard win

the drouth threat in the Southwest
also favor price strength.
Acreage allotments have been in
creased for growers of Glass II durum
wheat. Planting of three million
acres-enough to produce 38 million
bushels-is the goal.
SEEDS-Prices for most hay and
pasture seeds will be steady OF
higher in the next few weeks. Spring
demand is strong except where
drouth is still severe. Combined car
ryovers of leading seeds probably
will be less than year ago. Alfalfa
