received by the ,bureau of ,markets and ,crop ,estimates during the week ending ,oct4 #a4 ,there is a tendency on the part of the growers of red clover seed to hold their seed because the crop1 which is now being thrashed in many sections1 is not turning out any better than was expected at harvest time and as reported in ,the ,market ,reporter for ,sept4 #aj4 ,although clover prices on ,sept4 #bg were mostly #ej to #a per #ajj lbs4 lower than they were a month ago1 they have shown little or no change during the past week or ten days4 ,the quality of red and alsike clover is about equal or slightly inferior to that of last year's stock4 ,rains during the last two weeks of ,september have discolored or bleached much of the seed in some sections4 ,,movement ,,slow4 ,red ,clover4--,in a number of important sections only #e to #be of the red clover seed crop had been sold by growers at the end of ,september4 ,this season's movement1 however1 has exceeded the belated movement of the #aibj crop1 but has been a little slower than usual4 ,growers see evidences of a short crop in their immediate vicinity1 and in view of the fact that prices offered are on an average #b to #d per #ajj lbs4 lower than last year1 and #be to #bh lower than two years ago at a corresponding time1 they are not inclined to sell freely4 ,in a few sections1 particularly southwestern ,ohio and southeastern ,iowa1 the movement has been considerably above normal1 the growers already having sold #de and #ce1 respectively1 of their crops4 ,the average prices offered to growers in various sections on ,sept4 #bg for clean seed1 as shown in the accompanying table1 ranged from #ad4fj per #ajj lbs4 in southwestern ,iowa to #ag4be in southwestern ,ohio1 compared with a range of #ag4be to #bb at a corresponding time last year4 ,the imports of red clover seed during ,july1 ,august1 and ,september totaled #a1gib1ijj lbs4 compared with #cje1bjj lbs4 during the same months a year ago4 ,these heavy imports of old seed from ,europe and ,south ,america have tended to depress prices for domestic seed4 ,french1 ,german1 and ,italian correspondents state that large quantities of red clover seed were sold during ,july and ,august and consequently stocks of old seed have been reduced greatly4 ,the #aiba crop in these and other ,european countries was reported to be much below normal because of the drought during the summer1 and it will be needed for sowing the acreage there next spring4 ,the quality of the seed in this country varies considerably in different sections1 being better than last year in southern ,wisconsin1 ,ohio1 ,minnesota1 ,south ,dakota1 and ,idaho and somewhat poorer in central ,illinois1 and ,indiana1 ,michigan1 and parts of other ,states4 ,alsike ,clover4--,in practically all of the important producing sections a larger percentage of the crop had left growers' hands by ,oct4 #a than on the same date last year4 ,it is estimated that about two-fifths of the marketable surplus had been sold by growers by that date4 ,on ,sept4 #bg growers were being offered #ac4je to #af per #ajj lbs4 for clean seed compared with prices a year ago of #ah4dj to #bd4ej and two years ago of #cf4bj to #dj4 ,most of the reports indicated that the quality of the #aiba crop was approximately the same as that of last year2 the reports indicating a difference in quality between the #aiba and #aibj crops were about equally divided1 some stating that the quality was better and others stating that it was inferior4 ,the imports of alsike clover seed from ,july #a to ,sept4 #cj were #a1ajf1gjj lbs41 compared with #aji1gjj lbs4 for the same period last year4 ,the crop in ,ontario1 ,canada1 which contributes the large bulk of the alsike clover seed that is annually imported into this country is less than normal and is estimated to be #fj of the #aibj crop4 ,the decreased production of this seed in the ,united ,states and ,canada has caused prices to remain

,during ,august ,exceed ,those of ,condensed--,export ,prices ,lower4 ,the movement of unsweetened evaporated milk in cases during ,august was considerably larger than that of sweetened condensed milk1 and the tone of the market for the former class of goods was proportionately better1 as shown by a review of the latest available reports from milk manufacturers4 ,the demand for bulk goods has decreased materially with the approach of cooler weather1 especially the demand from the ice-cream trade4 ,manufacturers' reports of total stocks on hand ,sept4 #a indicate approximately the same surplus of condensed case goods as on ,aug4 #a1 but show a decrease of over #ce in the quantities of evaporated case goods4 ,a similar condition prevailed with regard to unsold stocks1 supplies of condensed case goods being practically the same as on ,aug4 #a1 while stocks of unsold evaporated case goods decreased almost #ej4 ,stocks of case goods of both condensed and unsweetened evaporated milk on ,sept4 #a were less than one-half the quantity reported on hand ,sept4 #a1 #aibj4 ,the export movement during ,august apparently served to give considerable relief to the general situation4 ,exports totaling #bb1hjc1jjj lbs4 of evaporated milk more than doubled the ,july exports4 ,exports of condensed milk were but #g1eeg1jjj lbs41 although this was #b1jjj1jjj lbs41 heavier than in ,july4 ,the ,united ,kingdom received the heaviest shipments1 #ab1gaf1jjj lbs4 of evaporated and #c1bcb1jjj lbs4 of condensed going to that country4 ,france and ,germany each received approximately #c1jjj1jjj lbs4 of evaporated milk4 ,exports of condensed milk during the first eight months of #aiba were but #fb1jjj1jjj lbs41 compared with more than #bba1jjj1jjj lbs4 during the same period in #aibj1 while exports of #aaf1jjj1jjj lbs4 of evaporated milk this year are #e1jjj1jjj lbs4 heavier than the shipments in #aibj4 ,manufacturers' selling prices to the domestic trade during ,august remained practically the same as during ,july1 but reductions occurred in prices to foreign trade4 ,the largest cuts averaging #cd per case were made in export prices of sweetened condensed milk4 ,unsweetened evaporated milk prices to foreign trade were not so generally reduced1 as some manufacturers seem to have advanced export prices slightly1 with the result that the average export price was but #d less per case than during the previous month4 ,wholesale ,prices of ,condensed and ,evaporated ,milk4 7,to domestic trade47 ---------------------------------------- ----------- ,sweetened

,market ,has ,fairly ,healthy ,tone4 7,chicago1 ,east ,st4 ,louis1 ,kansas ,city1 ,omaha1 and ,st4 ,paul47 ,receipts of live stock during the closing week of ,september were of generous volume despite the fact that conditions in some departments of the trade during the preceding week bordered on demoralization4 ,an increased proportion of trashy1 light-weight cattle indicated that producers were anxious to liquidate surplus holdings before stormy weather sets in1 while a corresponding decrease in receipts of corn-feds suggested a decreased number of well-conditioned beef cattle in feeders' hands4 ,chicago's cattle receipts for the week were the largest since ,january1 while the combined ten-market supply of about #bdb1cjj cattle was practically the same as the week previous but #da1jjj short of the corresponding week a year ago4 ,following the descent of hog prices during the preceding week to the lowest levels of the year1 the marketward movement of hogs expanded materially1 the ten-market total at approximately #dcf1jjj being #dj1jjj in excess of the week previous1 and nearly #fj1jjj greater than the same week last year4 ,the hog run1 while continuing to carry an abnormally large proportion of heavy packing sows for this period of the year1 showed a considerably enlarged quota ,of spring-farrowed1 light and underweight stock and average weights decreased at most points4 ,the disposition shown by producers in many sections to unload pigs and immature light hogs was anything but a bullish influence on prices but a revival of eastern shipping demand assisted in checking the decline4 ,,sheep ,,and ,,lamb ,,receipts ,,large4 ,receipts of sheep and lambs for the week both at ,chicago and numerous other western points were the largest of the year1 the ten-market total of about #dai1ejj exceeding the previous week's supply by approximately #ch1jjj and being nearly #a1jjj in excess of those of the same week last year4 ,the crop1 however1 carried a heavy proportion of feeders from the western range and the market displayed gratifying stability following the slump in prices during the week previous1 which was one of the most severe slumps of the season4 ,cattle4--,higher prices for most grades of beef steers showing effective corn feeding1 further seasonal expansion in the movement of both native and western grass cattle1 and further evidences of increasing interest on the part of stocker and feeder buyers featured the cattle trade during the week under review4 ,the trend of prices at the different market centers was decidedly irregular4 ,omaha1 where receipts were considerably lighter than the preceding week1 showed advances on practically all classes of cattle4 ,other ,river markets under review showed irregular declines on grass cattle and comparatively little change on desirable corn-feds4 ,at ,chicago1 where receipts of northwestern range cattle were nearly double the largest previous run this season1 grass steers and the less desirable of the warmed-up and plain1 heavy1 fed steers sold steady to #be lower1 and the better grades of corn-fed steers1 including yearlings1 all the way from #aj to #ej higher4 ,the return of #aa cattle after an absence dating back to last ,january1 marked the week's trading at ,chicago4 ,two lots of prime ,angus and ,hereford yearlings averaging #ihe lbs4 and #hia lbs41 respectively1 brought that price4 ,the former consignment was made up of natives from an ,iowa feed lot1 nearly half of which were heifers4 ,the other lot consisted of ,illinois-fed1 branded steers which originally came from ,texas4 ,the popularity at all market centers of well-finished yearlings on the baby beef order and of finished #a1ajj-lb4 to #a1cjj-lb4 steers over the weighty and more aged bullocks was as pronounced as ever1 and the price premiums earned by the former were unprecedented for this season of the year4 ,thick-fat #a1djj-lb4 to #a1ejj-lb4 steers of high quality and closely approaching prime grade could not pass #i4be at ,chicago and contrasted oddly with the moderately fat1 short-fed yearlings that brought about the same figure4 ,ripe steers in the #a1fjj-lb4 to #a1gfj-lb4 class that had been grain-fed a year or more1 sold at ,chicago and ,omaha at #h4be to #h4ej with a plainer1 weighty kind that had consumed considerable corn1 down to #g4ej4 ,many sales of good and choice #a1bjj-lb4 to #a1cej-lb4 steers between #h and #h4ge were made at ,chicago and elsewhere4 ,a few loads of long yearlings averaging #a1ajj lbs4 to #a1age lbs4 sold as high as #aj and #aj4ej4 ,a generous proportion of the run1 however1 all around the western market circuit consisted of branded and native grass steers of mediocre and medium killing quality that cashed at #e to #f4ej1 comparatively few straight grass steers being good enough to bring #g4 ,this was true despite the fact that two loads of ,montanas reached #g4be at ,chicago4 ,light grass steers of common quality but carrying enough flesh to make cheap carcass beef1 sold as low as #d4be and #d4ej at ,st4 ,paul and ,missouri ,river points and a few1 chiefly on the ,mexican order1 ranged downward from #e at ,chicago4 ,an increase of nearly #ej in receipts of northwestern grass cattle at ,chicago was credited in part to the #bj cut in long-haul freight rates4 ,the week's total of about #ac1jjj cattle from that source1 however1 was but little more than half as large as similar receipts during the corresponding week last year4 ,it seems probable1 however1 that the ,northwest will ship more freely during ,october1 as after this month stormy weather is likely to put an end to cattle roundups4 ,liberal receipts of low and medium grade steers and their cheapness 8on the hooks0 as compared with most grades of she stock had a depressing effect on cow and heifer prices at all markets covered by this report except ,omaha4 ,at the latter market light receipts forced cow prices up along with those of most other classes of cattle4 ,canners and choice dry-fed heifer yearlings withstood the downward tendency and held about steady4 ,,she-,,stock ,,prices ,,break4 ,the break in she-stock prices ranged anywhere from #be4 to #a4 ,declines were most severe at ,chicago1 where medium to good grades of fat cows and the same classes of grass heifers frequently showed a break of #ge4 to #a compared with the previous week-end4 ,a spread of #c4ge to #e4ge took the big end of the week's supply of grass cows and heifers1 while canners and cutters ranged largely from #b4be to #c4be4 ,the best of the light1 corn-fed heifer yearlings sold well in line with finished steer yearlings1 but they had to be of the baby-beef type4 ,owing to scarcity of corn-fed cows and a slackened demand for kosher cows due to the approaching ,jewish holidays1 few heavy cows were good enough to bring #f at any of the large western markets4 ,bulls sold steady to lower at most points1 while calves were sharply lower at both ,chicago and ,st4 ,paul1 little changed at ,kansas ,city and ,st4 ,louis1 and higher at ,omaha because of meager receipts4 ,the demand for stock and feeding cattle1 which has been gaining breadth during recent weeks1 was comparatively liberal during the closing week of ,september and the total movement to the country was the largest of the year to date4 ,except ,omaha1 where stocker and feeder cattle shared in the general price upturn1 prices of such cattle at points under review were at the lowest levels of the year to date4 ,well-bred yearlings and light feeders were in strongest demand4 ,with the exception of a few steers on the fat cattle order1 few cattle went to the country costing over #f4ge4 ,the bulk of the feeder steers sold within a range of #e4be to #f4be and stockers largely between #e and #f4 ,some of the best stock steers1 however1 sold right up with the choice heavy feeders and many plain and common light stockers sold downward from #d4ej4 ,kansas ,city reported a fully steady market for stock cows and heifers with a good many cows going out at #c4ej to #d1 and many stock heifers at #d to #e with a few as high as #e4ej4 ,,receipts1 ,,shipments1 ,,and ,,local ,,slaughter ,,for ,,the

marked the trade for several weeks previous were1 for the most part1 missing4 ,while during the preceding week1 average cost of hogs at the markets under review showed a decrease1 ,chicago prices dropping to the lowest levels since early in #aiaf1 closing prices of the week under review were generally #aj to #ae higher than the previous week-end4 ,a broader eastern demand was partly responsible for the advance4 ,while the proportion of new crop hogs showed a seasonal increase at practically all points1 the continued heavy receipts of packing sows caused considerable comment4 ,traders at ,chicago do not recall any recent period when receipts at this time of the year carried so large a percentage of packing sows as do current offerings4 ,packing sows were of almost uniformly good quality1 many of them being almost as smooth as barrows4 ,several of the smaller packers at ,chicago turned from heavy barrows to good and choice sows4 ,many of the new-crop hogs showed very little finish and buyers complained that many were 8dopey0 apparently suffering from the effects of initial rations of new corn4 ,on almost every day butcher hogs averaging #bjj lbs4 to #bdj lbs4 sold at top prices at ,chicago1 while the #afj-lb4 to #agj-lb4 kinds closed considerably under top quotations4 ,the closing top at ,chicago was #h4cj with the average cost that day #g4jf4 ,the average cost of packing and shipping droves for the week at that point was #g4be1 with the average weight at #bei lbs41 the lightest since the week ending ,aug4 #f4 ,the closing top at ,east ,st4 ,louis was

the year1 sheep and lamb trade during the final week of ,september showed some improvement4 ,receipts at ,chicago were larger than during any previous week since #aiai and range lambs1 carrying the largest proportion of feeders of the season1 were greatly in the majority4 ,in the fat classes1 supply and demand were evenly balanced and as the feeder outlet developed considerable breadth1 closing prices on all classes were practically steady with the close of the week previous4 ,sheep were generally steady at all points except ,kansas ,city1 where prices worked #be to #ej higher on fat classes4 ,fat lambs closed lower for the week at ,omaha and higher at ,east ,st4 ,louis but were little changed elsewhere4 ,feeder classes sold steady to somewhat higher at all points4 ,the range movement started early this summer and the early season output of feeders was small4 ,opening1 ,oct4 #c4--;,beef steers were strong to #be higher at ,chicago with desirable corn-feds gaining most4 ,river markets were generally steady to strong on corn-feds and slow to lower on grassers4 ,the week opened with a big run of #ce1jjj cattle at ,kansas ,city4 ,chicago's receipts at #bj1jjj cattle were well below expectations and the supply of good corn-fed cattle showed a marked decrease4 ,top yearlings reached #aa4ae at ,chicago1 the highest point reached since early in ,january and within

---------------------------------------- ------------------ ,,meat ,,trade ,,narrow ,,during ,,most ,,of ,,september4 ,fairly ,good ,demand ,early in ,month ,not ,sustained--,week-,end ,accumulations ,frequent4 ,fresh-meat trade during ,september was narrow and movements into consumptive channels were considerably less than during ,august1 except for a short period at the beginning of the month when there was a fairly good demand for all classes4 ,although receipts of some classes were less than normal1 week-end accumulations in wholesale markets were frequent and as a rule sharp declines followed4 ,supplies of beef at eastern markets were approximately #h1bej1jjj lbs41 or #ac1hjj carcasses less than a year ago4 ,veal supplies decreased #f1cjj carcasses and mutton #cb1jjj carcasses4 ,lamb increased #fc1jjj carcasses1 or #b1ejj1jjj lbs4 ,at eastern points the decrease in supplies of fresh pork from locally slaughtered hogs was more than offset by increased shipments from middle western packing centers and a net increase of #aaj1jjj lbs4 for the month was shown4 ,,beef ,,trade ,,unimproved4 ,beef4--,improved trade conditions which were expected to follow cooler weather did not materialize4 ,average weekly supplies were less than for several months past1 but the demand was curtailed to an even greater extent4 ,with liberal quantities of low-grade beef offered at packing centers1 increased supplies of sausage material were available1 and prices in most cases were fully #ej below those prevailing a year ago4 ,comparatively little choice beef was offered at any of the markets1 and when it appeared in the form of heavy carcasses it was hard to move1 selling only at a heavy discount4 ,carcasses weighing from #dej to #fjj lbs4 were the kind most in demand4 ,with supplies at eastern markets consisting chiefly of medium to good grass-fed steers1 prices were uneven and during most of the month tended downward4 ,boston was relatively steadier than other eastern markets and closed only about #a lower1 while ,new ,york and ,philadelphia registered sharp weekly fluctuations and closed unevenly #a to #b net lower4 ,although the demand at ,chicago was again narrow and showed no apparent improvement over that of the preceding month1 price changes were slight4 ,to some extent this was caused by local conditions and the ability to adjust supplies to the demand4 ,cow beef constituted a relatively small proportion of the offerings at all markets1 and was materially less in quantity than at the same time a year ago4 ,markets were not generally supplied with bulls1 and in most cases daily receipts were insufficient to justify quotations4 ,while kosher beef markets registered slight weekly fluctuations1 the range of prices generally was steady1 though somewhat higher than in ,august4 ,the better grades were in best demand4 ,because of the near approach of ,yom ,kippur and other ,jewish holidays1 kosher killing was discontinued during the closing days of ,september and any surplus supplies were offered for sale to the regular trade4 ,veal4--,liberal offerings of heavy veal carcasses1 most of which were of undesirable quality1 had a depressing effect on prices in general4 ,milk-fed veal was scarce1 but when available found ready sale at firm prices4 ,receipts at eastern markets were #f1cjj carcasses less than during the corresponding month a year ago1 but were more than the trade required4 ,price ranges were materially widened1 with the trend upward during the first week1 but sharply downward through the remainder of the month4 ,all markets were similarly affected4 ,closing prices at eastern markets were unevenly #b to #c lower than the opening1 with common and medium grades registering the greatest decline4 ,choice veal at ,chicago closed steady to #a higher1 with other grades mostly #b lower than the opening4 ,,lamb ,,trade ,,chaotic4 ,lamb4--,with continued heavy receipts of lambs at live-stock centers1 the dressed trade was in a chaotic condition4 ,although estimated receipts of lamb at seven of the principal live-stock markets showed a decrease of #ab as compared with the same month one year ago1 liberal offerings of ,canadian lambs at eastern markets more than offset the decrease and intensified the already existing unsettled condition4 ,this1 together with the continued unequal demand1 assisted in pushing prices of the dressed product below the low point reached in ,february of the present year4 ,total supplies at eastern markets exceeded those of the same period a year ago by #b1ejj1jjj lbs41 and fluctuations on the different grades amounted to #f4 ,while ,chicago registered smaller fluctuations the trend was steadily downward and closing prices were #b to #c below the opening4 ,although closing prices at eastern markets were slightly above the low spot for the month1 trade conditions at the close were generally unsatisfactory to the selling side4 ,at the beginning of the month cold storage holdings were #hbj1eai lbs4 less than a month earlier1 but were still considerably above the season's average during prewar years4 ,mutton4--,receipts of mutton at eastern markets decreased #cb1jjj carcasses as compared with the same period a year ago4 ,this reduction1 together with a general improvement in quality over that of the previous month1 was the principal factor contributing to a generally steady market in the ,east1 particularly during the last half of the month4 ,with supplies at ,chicago consisting largely of heavy bucks and ewes and practically no handyweight wethers1 that market declined sharply and closed #a4ej to #b below the opening4 ,pork4--,conditions in the fresh-pork trade were generally unsettled4 ,sharp weekly fluctuations caused by erratic advances on ,mondays1 which could not be maintained through the week1 were an outstanding feature of the month's trade at some markets4 ,supplies of loins at eastern markets were practically the same as a year ago and consisted mostly of frozen or chilled stock1 for which there was an uneven demand4 ,the latter sold at a wide range of prices and unevenly #d to #aj below corresponding averages of fresh loins4 ,closing prices at eastern markets were only slightly changed from the opening1 some averages being #ej to #a lower4 ,conditions at ,chicago1 which has been the high market during the past two months1 were materially changed and declines equaling the advances of late ,july were registered during the last half of ,september4 ,from the high point of #cb on light average loins1 prices had dropped to #bf at the close4 ,heavier average loins registered similar declines4 ,shoulder cuts were relatively more stable but were mostly #a to #a4ej off at the close4 ,cured pork and lard4--,the domestic demand for cured pork cuts and lard1 while fair for the season1 was not of sufficient volume to offset the decline in live-stock markets and prices registered sharp declines4 ,dry salt meats and lard were in relatively better demand than hams1 bacon1 and picnics1 and showed proportionately smaller declines4 ,at the close wholesale prices of hams at ,chicago were off #c to #c4ej1 bacon #b to #b4ej1 and picnics #a4ej to #b4 ,the net decline on lard amounted to #ge1 dry salt backs #ej to #ge1 and dry salt bellies about #a4 ,reacting from the general upward trend of prices during ,august1 compound lard markets were weak and closing prices were unevenly #ge to #a4ej under the opening4 ,,stocker ,,and ,,feeder ,,shipments4 ,week ending ,friday1 ,sept4 #cj4

market throughout the week from ,sept4 #bf to ,oct4 #a1 principally on account of light arrivals of good stock4 ,prices of boxed stock declined on account of heavier arrivals1 but the trade is still looking for large red stock1 and taking it readily4 ,potatoes continued in light demand with very liberal supplies1 and prices gradually declined until ,maine ,cobblers in #afe-lb4 sacks reached #b4ge to #c1 with few buyers4 ,receipts of good onions were light with prices firm4 ,peaches from ,new ,york were in light supply and mostly of only fair condition and poor color4 ,demand was moderate with good stock selling readily for #d4ej to #e a bu42 ordinary and poor stock sold slowly in a #b to #d range4 ,sweet potatoes eased off considerably in price4 ,grapes were dull throughout the week selling slowly at the lowest figures yet realized4 ,cabbage was not in demand and prices gradually declined closing at #cj to #ce per ton for ,new ,york domestic4 ,the first car of ,california tomatoes arrived on ,thursday1 but with heavy supplies of nearby stock on hand1 did not sell so readily as was anticipated4 ,the tomatoes were in excellent condition1 with a few slightly overripe4 ,best lugs sold at #a4ge to #b with ripe stock at #a4ej1 but were not cleaned up and sold at #a4be to #a4ej the following day4 ,dairy and ,poultry ,,definite ,,import ,,information ,,steadies ,,butter ,,market4 ,tendency ,toward ,higher ,prices--,danish ,butter ,has ,sentimental ,effect on ,market4 ,butter trading was on a more confident basis during the week ending ,oct4 #a and the markets developed a steadier tone as a result of definite information regarding the quantities of ,danish butter expected to be available in the near future4 ,the persistent rumors of large shipments which during the previous week were partly responsible for the unsettled condition were soon quieted1 and operators took a more conservative attitude4 ,there was less pressure to sell and buyers were inclined to purchase more freely4 ,price changes were small1 but there was a general tendency toward a higher level1 advances of to #a being registered on all markets on the finer grades of butter4 ,at times the supply of fancy butter was somewhat in excess of the demand1 but any efforts on the part of the sellers to get prices down were always met with an active buying demand from distributors and speculators4 ,it was a good1 steady market with holders usually free sellers and buyers taking immediate requirements readily at current prices4 ,,market ,,on ,,undergrades ,,improved4 ,the market for undergrades was somewhat more active4 ,the heavy supply of last week showed but little if any reduction1 and current receipts consisted largely of undergrade butter4 ,the quality of receipts generally was reported considerably better during the week and this no doubt was largely the cause of the improved market in undergrades4 ,more interest was shown in undergrades by buyers who bought for immediate needs or who got such price concessions as to make their purchases bargains1 but as a rule dealers found it impossible to move all their undergrades even at large price reductions4 ,receipts for the week show but little change from previous weeks4 ,it was generally expected that production would gradually decrease in spite of the fact that conditions for a good fall production have been favorable4 ,hence1 the latest available report from the ,american ,association of ,creamery ,butter ,manufacturers showing an increase of #i4h over last year and an increase of #j4dd over the previous week came as a surprise4 ,the storage holdings for the four markets showed a marked decrease during the week4 ,the decrease was most pronounced at ,chicago1 indicating a movement of storage butter from there to other markets4 ,the ,s4 ,s4 ,frederick ,,viii arrived during the week1 carrying a cargo of #a1bej casks of ,danish butter1 which did not become available until ,friday4 ,part of this butter was reported sold at prices ranging from #dd to #de1 depending upon the size of the lot4 ,the ,s4 ,s4 ,heligolav and ,drottingholm now afloat with combined cargoes estimated at between #c1jjj and #d1jjj casks4 ,the ,oscar ,,ii1 which sailed from ,copenhagen on ,sept4 #cj1 is also expected to carry some butter4 ,the effect of the ,danish butter on the markets has been largely sentimental1 causing operators to act somewhat more conservatively4 ,,wholesale ,,prices ,,of ,,butter ,,and ,,cheese ,,for ,,week ,,ending ,,oct4 #a4 ,cents per pound4

,,cheese ,,markets ,,become ,,steady ,,under ,,improved ,,demand4 ,southern ,buying ,materially ,increased--,considerable ,quantities of ,canadian ,cheese ,bought4 ,the tone of cheese markets was at least steady during the week ending ,oct4 #a1 although prices which prevailed in ,wisconsin during the week suggested a somewhat unsettled feeling4 ,prices on ,wisconsin cheese boards advanced again ,sept4 #bh1 although the advances were for the most part small and were confined to the larger styles4 ,some dealers quoted prices representing very close margins1 and this probably accounted for more or less variation in f4 o4 b4 selling prices on different days of the week4 ,daisies and ,twins were good sellers throughout the week1 ,longhorns being the only style which was especially slow4 ,buying in the ,south showed a material increase4 ,there was also considerable inquiry from southern buyers4 ,practically all of the southern business went direct to ,wisconsin rather than through distributing market dealers4 ,,retail ,,demand ,,increased4 ,the very low prices quoted by ,canadian dealers and the resulting sales had a noticeable effect in distributing markets4 ,goods from ,canada at prices around #ag to #ah delivered at ,new ,york looked so attractive to a number of buyers who anticipate heavier export demand later in the season1 that considerable quantities were purchased4 ,only a small quantity of this cheese has actually been imported as yet1 according to current reports1 the bulk of it remaining in ,canadian storages4 ,the large ,canadian ,cheddars are not entirely suitable for our domestic trade1 although in some markets certain dealers split them4 ,they are used successfully1 however1 for grinding purposes and to some extent for making the small loaf cheese which has come into prominence the past season4 ,retail distribution of cheese received an impetus during the week on account of the especially low retail prices advertised by large retailers1 principally chain-store operators1 in several eastern cities4 ,prices were reported as having been as low as #ba for cheese of good quality4 ,,imports ,,of ,,wool ,,during ,,august4

#a4bg4 ,,flour ,,imports ,,from ,,canada4 ,there were several important developments in the general situation4 ,one of these was a report from ,new ,york that #bj1jjj bbls4 of ,canadian flour had been bought to come to that market4 ,this1 of course1 had a depressing influence on wheat prices4 ,during ,august #c1gjj bbls4 of flour and #bci1jjj bus4 of wheat were imported from ,canada4 ,this was for domestic consumption and not for re-export at ,american ports4 ,another bearish development of the week was a report that ,hard ,winter wheat on passage for ,europe had been sold at #aa under the price at which it could be replaced4 ,it was also reported that ,hard ,winter wheat was being resold in ,london at #e under the replacement cost4 ,all of the news was not bearish1 however4 ,a message from the ,pacific coast early in the week reported that #ab1jjj1jjj to #ae1jjj1jjj bus4 of ,pacific coast wheat were under contract for shipment to the ,orient4 ,also1 on ,oct4 #c a message reported an additional #a1bej1jjj bus4 of wheat sold to ,japan4 ,the impression appears to be growing in the grain trade that the ,united ,states has probably already sold for export all the wheat that can be spared and that there will be a scarcity later in the season unless there are liberal importations from ,canada4 ,there were some changes in the cash wheat markets4 ,at ,chicago a good demand developed for ,no4 #b ,red ,winter and supplies of that kind of wheat were scarce4 ,the premium over the ,december strengthened and on ,oct4 #c was #e to #f4 ,at the same time ,no4 #b ,hard ,winter

preserve the standard varieties in a state of purity and to facilitate the propagation of new varieties under the most favorable conditions4 ,the history of the cotton industry in ,egypt shows that a great number of cotton varieties have been planted which after a period of commercial popularity have almost disappeared from cultivation4 ,under the plan now being proposed no private person or firm will be permitted to engage in the selection or production of new varieties or strains of cotton unless licensed to do so1 and even then not more than #bjj acres may be devoted to the experiment4 ,the area to be so planted must furthermore first undergo a field test for at least two years under the direction of the ministry of agriculture4 ,if the experiment proves satisfactory the seed obtained from the new variety or strain will be propagated and distributed by the ,government under the name registered by the original producer4 ,the ,government will allow the producer a royalty on all seed used or sold for planting purposes1 but will reserve the right to limit the rate of1 or to discontinue entirely1 its propagation4 ,further information on this proposed control plan may be obtained upon request to the ,bureau of ,markets and ,crop ,estimates1 ,washington1 ,d4 ,c4 99 99 99 99 99 ,the economic importance of seeds is perhaps greater than that of any other farm commodity4 ,seeds are potential plants4 ,practically all staple foods are derived1 either directly or indirectly1 from plants4 ,a shortage of seed in any country or section of a country may mean a shortage of food4 ,the commercial supply of seeds in the ,united ,states safeguards every section of this country against a deficiency in the necessary requirements for planting annually and indirectly helps to maintain the

about #bc4ej per ton1 with the alfalfa average price about #bb4ge4 ,this is #aj less per ton for both kinds than the prevailing average price ,oct4 #a1 #aibj4 ,there is a fair local demand in limited quantities for the better grades of hay but scarcely any shipping demand and the lower grades are neglected4 ,good pastures and large local supplies of forage are important factors and will probably curtail demand for some time4 ,receipts at nine of the important hay markets were practically the same as for the preceding week and totaled only a little over #a1jjj cars compared with over #b1jjj

part of dealers to replenish their light stocks from the small quantity of hay arriving caused prices to advance #d per ton during the week in that market4 ,buying was restricted1 however1 by the higher prices4 ,other eastern markets were practically unchanged4 ,good hay is scarce but equal to the light demand4 ,prices at both the ,pittsburgh and ,cincinnati markets advanced #a during the week1 but the advance at ,cincinnati was lost on ,saturday because of a lack of support from shippers4 ,light receipts were almost entirely responsible for the firm market tone both at ,chicago and ,st4 ,louis1 as the demand was not large and was confined principally to local needs4 ,at ,chicago cars of choice hay in small bales sold at premiums of #a to #b over current quotations4 ,receipts on the ,north side increased and those on the ,south side decreased1 so that the premium at which hay sold on the ,north side tracks last week was reduced about #a per ton4 ,there was very little activity in the southern markets during the week4 ,stocks are light1 but buying is only for the light local demand4 ,richmond reports a good demand for ,no4 #a clover hay1 of which very little is being offered4 ,alfalfa4--,the alfalfa market showed some advances during the week1 but prices were not materially higher4 ,a better demand from southern and southeastern consuming sections and from interior ,kansas points1 where supplies are relatively small1 was reported at ,kansas ,city4 ,los ,angeles also reports an increased demand for good grades4 ,choice dairy and rabbit hay is selling at a good premium over ,no4 #a and standard alfalfa4 ,a sharp demand for fertilizer alfalfa is also reported from southern ,california4 ,further shipments of alfalfa from ,san ,francisco to the ,new ,england ,states were made during the week1 but local demand in that market is very light4 ,the movement of alfalfa in other ,western ,states is light1 caused principally by the light feeding demand and high freight rates4 ,prairie4--,more favorable weather has resulted in larger receipts of prairie hay at ,minneapolis4 ,the market remained steady1 however1 because of buying by the local stockyard4 ,firm prices on timothy and light receipts of prairie totaling only six cars for the week caused a firm market at ,chicago also4 ,the light receipts were attributed to the low prices which prevailed a short time ago4 ,increased receipts at ,kansas ,city1 caused apparently by the recent high prices1 are more than equal to the limited demand and the market for prairie is weak with prices somewhat lower than last week4 ,there was a good local demand from the stockyards1 but practically no shipping demand1 which is required to absorb any materially increased receipts4 ,but little change is expected until colder weather arrives4 ,straw4--,light receipts of straw caused slight price advances in several markets4 ,demand is light1 however1 and would not absorb a large increase in

---------------------------------------- --------------- #a ,hay quotations represent average of cash sales at these markets4 #b ,nominal4 #c ,brown4 #d ,rolled4 ,,middlings ,,active4 ,middlings were more active than bran and in several western markets1 including ,kansas ,city and ,st4 ,louis1 there was a good demand for middlings and shorts from both local buyers and shippers4 ,the shipping demand was rather broad1 mostly in single car orders1 from the ,central ,west1 ,south1 and ,southeast4 ,the higher prices asked for middlings in the southern markets1 however1 are causing consumers to buy bran instead4 ,although prices are low some dealers are inclined to think that still lower prices will prevail if an attempt is made to market the feed stored at lake ports before navigation closes4 ,however1 ,minneapolis mills are holding firm at present quotations4 ,cottonseed meal4--,the cottonseed meal market has lost much of the strength displayed during the past few weeks4 ,new seed is now moving to mills in larger quantities and the available supply of meal is increasing4 ,there is practically no consumptive demand and dealers are therefore holding off buying as they expect lower prices4 ,offerings from mills are still limited and in some sections only for ,october delivery4 ,lack of demand rather than heavy offerings is probably the cause of the present weakness in meal prices4 ,some exports of meal are reported at ,new ,orleans4 ,the demand for meal for fertilizer purposes is light because other ammoniates are cheaper at the present time4 ,linseed meal4--,northwestern linseed meal mills reduced their prices somewhat during the week1 but the decline was not reflected in all the markets4 ,philadelphia reports a slight advance in prices1 but quotations at ,buffalo and ,chicago were lower4 ,stocks are rather heavy and jobbers are pressing sales4 ,there is only a very light demand and resellers are offering meal at #b to #c under mill prices in an effort to stimulate sales4 ,,gluten ,,feed ,,demand ,,dull4 ,gluten feed4--,no further reductions in the price of gluten feed were reported during the week1 but the demand was very dull and very little interest was shown by buyers4 ,large ,chicago manufacturers reported a slight increase in buying orders toward the last of the week4 ,buffalo reported a light demand1 but mills are not pressing sales as they were a few days ago4 ,hominy feed4--,lower corn prices were reflected in the hominy feed market4 ,prices declined #ej to #a in several markets and mills were urgent sellers4 ,the demand for all other feeds is very light so that a surplus in the offerings1 especially of yellow hominy feed1 is noticeable4 ,alfalfa meal4--,alfalfa meal at ,kansas ,city was weak and lower1 ,no4 #a meal being offered as low as #ag4bj per ton and ,no4 #b at #ad4 ,the demand from both feeders and feed manufacturers is light4 ,but little improvement in the market for this feed can be expected until some activity appears in the demand for other feeds4 ,peanut meal4--,no offerings of new crop peanut meal have been reported1 and it is stated that probably none will be offered until about ,nov4 #a4 ,,demand ,,for ,,cut ,,hay ,,almost ,a ,,thing ,,of ,,the ,,past4 ,general ,use of ,automobiles and ,electric ,street ,cars ,cuts ,sales--,was ,used ,mostly in ,cities4 ,the demand for cut1 or chopped1 hay has diminished to such an extent during the past decade that at present only an occasional car is bought by city dealers while only a few shippers prepare this commodity for market4 ,but back in the days when phaetons1 surreys1 and smart traps drawn by high-stepping trotters and easy-going 8family0 horses were seen upon the boulevards1 and the heavy hauling was done by big draft horses rather than by gasoline-eating trucks1 many city dealers operated plants for the preparation and baling of cut hay4 ,numerous plants also were situated in the producing sections of ,new ,york1 ,pennsylvania1 and ,ohio4 ,the advent of the automobile1 however1 has changed all this1 aided materially by the substitution of electricity for mule power as the propelling force of street cars4 ,the kinds of hay usually chopped were timothy and clover mixed4 ,while hay which had become slightly overripe or which contained a mixture of grasses frequently was used1 only good1 sound1 and sweet feeding hay was considered fit for shipping4 ,,fed ,,mixed ,,with ,,grain4 ,cut hay is generally fed mixed with grain and is considered an excellent feed1 as it prevents the stock from eating the concentrated grain ration too rapidly4 ,the hay is usually dampened when used in this manner4 ,this is one of the disadvantages of feeding it for if more than enough is mixed for one feed and it is not fed within a short time it is likely to sour if the weather is warm1 or possibly freeze if the weather is cold4 ,this condition1 together with the labor and bother of mixing1 has caused feeders in many instances to turn to ready-mixed and molasses feeds4 ,however1 for feeders who desire to prepare their own mixed feed ration the cut hay is probably the most convenient ingredient that can be used to produce the required bulk4 ,,imports ,,of ,,forage-,,plant ,,seeds4 ,the ,seed ,laboratory of the ,bureau of ,plant ,industry reports the following imports of forage-plant seeds permitted

the notices issued were for more than #hj1jjj bales at ,new ,york and over #bj1jjj bales at ,new ,orleans4 ,however1 in spite of these notices of heavy deliveries1 the demand for ,october contracts during the day was such that the price at ,new ,york rose #a per lb4 and at ,new ,orleans nearly #a over the low point reached early in the morning4 ,the closing prices for ,october future contracts for that day were #ba4jc at ,new ,york and #bj4gj at ,new ,orleans1 or #adc points and #ace points1 respectively1 above the closing prices of the previous ,saturday4 ,the average price of middling in the #aj designated markets reached #bj4hi per lb4 on ,sept4 #bg1 or very nearly #e per bale higher than at the close of the previous week4 ,,trade ,,apprehensive4 ,only the better grades of cotton are deliverable on future contracts so that probably one of the main causes of the keen demand for ,october contracts was the apprehension that the present crop will not only be the smallest for many years but that it will also be of low grade1 as is indicated by reports from some sections4 ,during the remainder of the week prices eased off somewhat under heavy hedge selling and liquidation by long interests1 but indications were that the demand for future contracts1 as well as for spot cotton during the entire week1 was fully equal to the offerings4 ,the end of the week found prices higher than those prevailing at the close of the previous week except for the prices for the more distant months1 which were a few points lower4 ,the average price of ,middling as determined from the quotations of the #aj designated spot markets closed at #bj4ga per lb4 on ,oct4 #a1 compared with #ai4ib at the close of the previous week and #bc4aa for the corresponding day in #aibj4 ,fluctuations

,good ,outlook for ,spain's ,crop of ,jordan and ,valencia ,almonds4 ,from all available reliable sources it is believed that ,spain's #aiba crop of ,jordan almonds1 which are grown only in the

boxes of #be lbs4 each4 ,the crop is somewhat delayed because of the late spring1 but the quality is good4 ,since all stocks of this variety have been exhausted for some time1 the demand is active1 and opening prices f4 o4 b4 ,malaga are expected to be considerably higher than last year4 ,however1 this should make but little difference to the buyers in the ,united ,states1 as they will benefit by the decrease in the exchange value of the peseta4 ,the general opinion seems to be that this year's crop of ,valencia almonds will exceed last year's production by #ae to #bj4 ,inasmuch as these almonds are grown in various parts of ,spain and often shipped to ,malaga for export1 it is difficult to give exact figures4 ,prices of ,valencia almonds are regulated by quotations from ,italy1 but ,spanish farmers in the ,malaga district are expecting good prices on account of the small stocks carried over4 ,the following table gives the total exports of shelled almonds from ,malaga1 ,spain1 to
