WATAUGA DEMOCRAT?EVER"! s Farm Notes is Potatoes Should Sol* Higher s ^ Changes ;tt the September potato kV j market were r.iai-.v irora uie cue v.[1":of weather conditions on the rate of 1111 digging and marketing. Prospect of r~ a crop lighter than that of last year 1" helped hold par;, of the months *s gains. Frost damage reports began 1 to arrive in mid-September from the ?e Northeast ar.,i the Great Lakes re11 gion. 13 Eveii if demand should not prove greater this season, it seems that in the lighter production should sell! higher rathe: than lower, as corn**i pared with the previous year. Yet the iate September price of 50 to 70 s"; cents per 100 pounds for sacked pota't toes in eastern and mid western proJucing sections was considerably low>r* cr than the price of Go to 90 cents at , that time last year. City prices at 85 ** cents to SI.10 were 5 to 20 cents 10 lower this year. Because of the sharp 13 I changes in production estimates duric | ing the late months of the last 2 M*. years, the market was considered liken y to stay unsettled until most of the iCjcrop is matured and out of the -s ground. te | Features at present are the large 01 crop in the far West, the irregular ? j market quality of eastern and midi ] western potatoes, and the much light- j j er production in Maine and in some ' eastern nr>tnfn nw*tinn? f"*w?rv location suggested higher prices of ' : good potatoes in the East than in the Middle West, but recent quotations ot have been fairly close together. I Cattle Prices up Also A Prices of all classes and grades of ?p cattle have been at the highest levels n- i for any cot i csponding period since i\-' 1930. Cattle slaughter in July and : ij- August combined, however, was only ' ty ! slightly smaller than the very large r- commercial slaughter in those months 1 1 last year and was much larger than il-1 the July-August slaughter of all othte er years since 1926. c-1 The significant feature of the ry slaughter supply in these 2 months I this year was the unusually large pro- j1 j portion of cows and heifers in the todtital. Slaughter of females in the 2 1 u- i months was the largest for any July ct j ?August period during the 17 years or ' for which records have been kept, j he ' whore as slaughter of steers was the ig | smallest sir.ee 1932 and the second ' r.- smallest since 1921. Slaughter of cows j of and heifers also was unusually large ! ir- j during the first half of the year and! y- was very large in 1934. During the 6 j years, 1928-33, however, the numberd of cows and heifers slaughtered was relatively small and there was a genat! oral accumulation of such cattle! s- ; throughout the country, ig j The relatively favorable prices for ; ill 1 low-grade cattle and the special Fede-! oral-State campaign to eliminate Bangs disease and tuberculosis irem it cattle herds are factors which have A contributed to the liberal marketing of cows and heifers this year. With supplies of hogs unusually small and cattle prices relatively favorable, y stockmen have been taking advanr tage of the situation by selling off c many of the older cows on hand, i- j Prices of low-grade cows this sum g-j hut nave been about double those of 1; ~.T ) ? 3 (f\ si loc yoi gai L Ik Bk HHk > 2p **"?

Part arr >f the relatively strong demand for doi iucn cows is attributed to the efforts ?6C - consumers to lower their meat IOC osts through the purchase of cheap- hot ?r grades, and to the increased use ten >f "oeei in the manufacture of sausage . gri >ecaus?? of the scarcity of pork for ph< his purpose. j x Prices of the better grades of cows j JKjj lave shown considerably more weak- j p0 xess since the high point reached in ate April than have the prices of the .Sat ower grades.
