The 1939 pig cropjmi & was the largest in the 16 years'i!' S of record. It was 19 percent larg-1 U er that the 1938 crop and about tic 50 percent greater than the small 41 crop of 1935. The marked in- inl c I crease in the number of pigs rais- jml ' I ed in 1939 has been reflected in , O' about | much lareer hoe marketings in with 1939-40 than in any of the past Pa niHion 5 years. sh grain- In the July issue of the Live- ti( about stock Situation the hog outlook amber for 1940-41 was given. As there 'y ies of has been little change in the situ- m estock ation in the past month, the prin- ye same cipal points given in the July j ty of issue are briefly summarized: [Ei ctober CI) The 1940 spring pig crop-sP erably was 8 percent smaller than that,a* If the of 1939. On the basis of breed- re under ing intentions reported by farmers Pl nment about June 1 and other indica- ,hc m the tions it was estimated that the th grains, number of sows to farrow in the nillion fall of 1940 would be about 12,cr Trillion percent smaller than the number!re under farrowing last fall. (The detergrains ioration of the corn crop in July m bout 6 i indicates that the decrease in j 'a than j the number of sows to farrow j this fall will be at least as large ar to EAKINGS || Republican Rallies ar ire invited to attend. j ( Oct. 3rd, 1940, 8 P.

(2) Present indications are that 5 combined spring and fall pig jps in 1940 will total about 75.8 llion head campored with 84.3 llion head in 1939. The decrease the number of pigs raised in 40 will mean a material reducin in hog marketings in 1940. It is roughly estimated that spected hogs slaughter in the irketing year, which begins :tober 1, 1940, will be between and 44 million head. This com,res with 47-48 million head lughtered under Federal inspec>n in 1939-40. (3) A large part, perhaps nearall, of the decrease in hog arketings in 1940-41 from a ar earlier is expected to occur ter November or December 1940 rrlter than usual marketings of 'ring pigs this year appear prob>!e in view of the unfavorable lationship of hog prices to corn ices. The seasonal increase in >g marketing from September rough December this year may ! about as large as the incase that occurred in the corsponding months of last year. large seasonal reduction in arketings is probable for the te winter and early spring.

Liuiiicauu wnomuci imand for pork and lard in 40-41, however, promises to be itter than in 1939-40. This im ovement in consumer demand id the decrease in hog marketgs are expected to result in aterially higher average prices r hogs in 1940-41 than in the esent marketing year. (5) A further moderate deease in the number of pigs ised in 1941 now seems prob>le. Winnabow News Misses Ethel Satterfield and irginia Pope spent Wednesday ith Mrs. Ralph Sellers at Oak land.

Newspaper Ads Z Helped Sears ? .The newspaper advertising ex- ,C; jenditures of Sears, Roebuck and Company hit an all-time high luring 1939, it was announced jy R. Stewart, manager of Sears us store in Wilmington. m News to the effect that these m fe expenditures last year reached :he huge total of $11,409,649 and ( Lopped the largest previous fig- * ire by $147,886 was contained: jj in an advertising survey prepared by Sears to assist its stores in j planning the company's 54th an-' rsiversary celebration to be held from September 12 to September. 28. Last year's figures represents in increase of 6.15 per cent over 1938's expenditures and an increase of 1.31 per cent over 1937, itself a record year. A total of 893 newspapers located in 47 states and the District of Columbia were used by Sears during 1939. In terms of space the huge sum spent by Sears last year to ^ get its sales messages across to customers amounts to 89,239.278 lines. This total exceeds by 14,467,361 lines, or 19.35 per cent, the amount of white space used the previous year. Sears' advertising study further revealed that all but 8.34 per cent of the company's 1939 appropriation for retail advertising went to newspapers. Of this amount 7.17 per cent was spent on circulars and miscellaneous types of publication, and 1.17 per cent went towards the purchase of radio time. According to Mr. Stewart, the fact that Sears is one of the \ largest, if not the largest, users j of newspaper space in the entire country has meant increased revenue for a number of North Carolina newspapers. Total advertising bought by Sears from these papers jumped in 1939 to $79,070, an increase of four percent. In terms of space this expenditure amounted to 1,047,723 lines.
