C. W. Overman Sees
Better Egg Prices
Next Two Months
Temporary Surplus Was
Caused By Fear And
Now Vanished
County Agent C. W. Overman says
a temporary egg surplus has devel
oped in many sections of the State
during the first half of January,
and that apparently this condition
was due mainly to reduced settings
by hatcheries, open winter weather
and fear on the part of egg dealers
that the market would drop sharply.
This fear caused the dealers to buy
for immediate use only, thereby
weakening the demand on the local
markets, but this temporary surplus
and scare has about vanished, and
the egg markets are now much
stronger than was the case in mid'
January.
Plans for extended price support
for eggs during the coming spring
season of flush production were an
nounced January 22, by the U. S.
Department of Agriculture. Design
ed to carry forward the Depart
ment’s program of supporting pro
ducer egg prices at a minimum of 85
per cent of parity to encourage ex
panded production of War Time
needs, the plans call for increased
purchases of eggs during the months
when supplies are greatest and prices
are normally lowest. Purchases of
eggs by the Department during the
months immediately ahead will dim
at continuing the support of producer
prices at a level equal to 85 per cent
of parity, and, in addition, preventing
a disorderly seasonal price adjust
ment.
The plans for supporting egg prices
during the next few months of flush
production call for the following:
(1) Make full use of virtually all of
the_ production capacity of egg-dry
ing plants. (Operating on an around
the-clock basis, present egg-drying
facilities can produce more than
200,000,000 pounds of dried eggs an
nually, which would require over
20,000,000 cases of eggs).
(2) Inaugurate purchase of U. S.
wholesale grades of fresh shell eggs
. for school lunch, relief and other im
mediate distribution purposes, and
for storage for subsequent distribu
tion.
(3) Make purchases of shell
treated export grades of fresh eggs
later in spring production season for
storage, until shipment during the
fall months.
(4) Continue, for the time being,
limited purchases of export grades
of eggs for immediate use. The
average U. S. farm price of eggs
for February was about 17c and 85
per cent of parity will be nearly 21c
per dozen for that month. The
March farm price was about 16c per
dozen and 85 per cent of parity will
be a little over 19c. The April U. IS.
Farm price was nearly 20c and 85
per cent of parity will also be a little
over 19c.
“Therefore,” says Mr. Overman,
“we are assured of better egg prices
in February and March this year
than were received last year. May
we suggest that the farm people cut
out the loafers but do not sell off the
layers. We believe that local egg
prices will be considerably better
than they were last spring. Be sure
to produce clean, quality eggs, gather
them in wire baskets and store in a
cool place on the farm while they
are being held. The quality of eggs
must be reasonably good for the
Government to buy them.”
Definite
“Where shall we meet?”
“Anywhere you like.”
“At what time?”
“Whenever it suits you.”
“Very well —but be punctual.”
