The so- _ called ;ash crop system of the South cart no longer produce income sufficient to support the farm family in reasonable comfort. This system should be supported by food and feed crops i ar.d by livestock, particularly hogs. ; j The Bureau of Agricultui al i Economics, U. S. Department of Agriculture, is forecasting (December 20th) strong consumer demand for hogs in 1940 compared with 1939. The improvement is expected to result from the increase in industrial production and consumer incomes.

Foreign demand for hog proucts in 1940 probably will be tionger than in 1939, but no arge increase in exports of pork nd laid as a lesult of the Eurolean War is expected in the next ew months. Hog marketings have increased easonally since September, and n recent months have been maerially larger than a year earlier. The seasonal increase in hog marceting probably will continue into 'anuary. Although marketing will >e reduced seasonally in the late vinter and early spring, they may >e as large for the entire second |uarter (January-March) of the i939-40 marketing year as in the irst quarter.

In early December, prices of letter grades of slaughter steers vere about twice as high as the irice of hogs. Hog prices have ieen so low in relation to cattle irices in only a few other times luring the past 20 years.

The fall pig crop of 1939 is istimated as 16 per cent larger han that of 1939. With the pring pig crop of 1939 twenty ier cent larger, the total pig :rop for 1939 is about 19 per cent arger than that of 1938. The indiated number of sows to farrow n the spring of 1940, however, is inly about the same as the numler farrowed in the spring of 939. These are the chief items of nformation shown by the Decmber Pig Crop Report, which is iased upon reports rrom 164,000 armers obtained in cooperation irith the Post Office Department hrough the rural mail carriers.
