Fire Facts

One hundred eighty thousand
dollars in Montgomery County
farm property went up in smoke
last year. Lightning accounted
for $26,085 of that-the other
S153,915 damage was caused by
fires that could have been pre-
vented.
By carefully checking potential
fire-starterS, you can prevent
fires on your farm:
1. Check your electrical sys-
tenn periodically. If you aren't
an electrical expert, get one.
Make needed repairs or chang
es without delay.
2. Keep your stored flam-
mables i'm suitable containers
far from sparks, electrical
switches, wiring, or motors.
3. Check carefully for sources
of spontaneous combustion i'm
your barn, granary and ma
chine shed.
Our county's trained firemer
will gladly visit you and advise
you on how to eliminate fire
hazards. If you'd like such ad
wise, and safety check of your
farm or home, call Gaithersburs

duction in the year ahead. If the in
crease is greater than the growth in

eminent supports win increase once
more.
EGGS-Prices probably are round
ing the yearly peak, but the seasonal
decline is likely to be more gradual
than last fall. Production will gain
more slowly in late fall and early win
ter than last year. Because of the de-
crease of per cent in the pullet crop,
laying fIocks are likely to be slightly
smaller by the end of the year than at
the beginning even though producers
are holding back more old hens than
usual because of higher returns from

winter may be nearly as large as last
year. but demand is stronger. so that

tally higher than a year earlier

By GILBERT GUSLER

MOST OF THE decline in the gem
eral level of farm prices caused by
this years record farm output prob
ably is over. The September index of
prices received by farmers was 2s5
against 2S3 in August and GAG in Sep
TENDER 1854. The index was lowest for
the month since 1915 when ceilings
were in effect.
The index of farm cost rates declined
to 278 in September from 279 in Au-
gust. 1t was $50 year ago. The de-
cline was due largely to lower prices
for food, feed and seed, which also rep
resent income to farmers. Prices for
industrial goods and services farmers
use still trend slightly higher.
Consumer demand for farm products
will continue stronger than year ago
and may rise slightly over current
levels in the next few months. Agri-
cultural exports in July and August
were about one-fourth larger than a
year previous The increase was large
ly due to government programs, but
better economic conditions abroad also
helped our export markets. Congress
authorized a still larger government
program for pushing exports of farm
products in the year ahead. In spite
of these increases, combined domestic
and foreign demand still falls short of
farm output.
CATTLE-Prices for 1ong-fed cattle
probably will have moderate rise in
the next few months. Prices for short
feds probably will hold up we'll Recent
cattle slaughter has been the largest on
record and included high proportion
of well finished grades.
Sales of grass cattle at leading mar
kets have been running much the same
as year ago. September rains in
many areas reduced selling pressure.
Slaughter of such cattle probably will
round the peak in the next month and
prices may weaken, but any further
decline is not likely to be severe. An
upward price trend is probable when
supplies taper off.
Stocker and feeder cattle prices prob
ably will not change much in the next
month or two. Recent rains which i'm
proved prospects for fall pastures and
wheat grazing increased demand in the
Southwest and the Western Cornbelt
and encouraged some owners to hold
back cattle. Average prices at ten
markets are about so cents a cwt. be-
low the fall average last year. With
