Hog Prices To Show
Downward Trend

Hog prices are expected to be
about a dollar below 1862 levels
IN the coming year. say agricul-
ttual economists at Virginia
Polytechnic Institute. Pork sup
plies III 1868 Will likely be larg-
er, resulting in the lower prices.
The pork supply, the supply of
other meats. and consumer de-
mand are the three main fac
tors affecting hog prices. Total
brOller production is not expect
ed to change much from 1862
hence will not have much ef-
fect on hog prices. Beef produc-
ton will likely increase, but not
enough to seriously affect hog
prices.
Consumer demand for meat
was strong in 1862, because of
the unusually cool SUNNI e +.
Weather in 1868 will be a factor
IN determining if demand re-
mans strong for pork. The
growth IN population will also in
crease demand.
The 1862 spring pig crop to-
tailed 1852 900 head. a two per
cent decrease from the 1861
spring crop. Most of this decline
resulted from smaller htters as
compared to the previous year.
The economists expect a some
what larger pork supply in the
first half of 1868 The Septem-
Der pig crop report shows that
fall borrowings will be four per
cent above lasr year in the corn
belt states The increase. how
ever. may not be as large as
expected because of smaller lit
terS than IN 1861. This larger
pork supply is expected to lower
prices about 81 from last wear.
III the coming six months.
II the same trend holds in the
corn belt states for spring, the
spring pig crop may increase by
more than four per cent. 1t is
likely that the pigs saved per Ill.
ter will regain some of the loss
from this year.
The larger spring pig crop is
expected to lower the price
level about 81 during the last
half Of 1868. from a year earlier.
SHEEP. LAMB PRICES
Sheep and lamb prices in 1865
are expected to be 81 to 50 above
1862 levels. say agricultural
economists at Virginia Polytech-
nc Institute The 1862 lamb crop
was four per cent less than in
1861, but two per cent more
than the 1850 average.
This smaller lamb crop re-
suited in a three per cent de-
crease in slaughter and a 81 to
$50 Increase in prices, com
pared with 1861.
Total sheep and lamb slaugfl-
ter, as a per cent of the lamb
crop. will be 81 per cent in 1862,
as compared to 80 per cent in
1861. This means fewer eve
lambs Will be available as re-
placements and a further reduc-
