In fact, it has been unusually strong and stable for twenty months. A principal reason was that the spring pig crops, and consequently market supplies during the fall, were not excessive. This is in sharp contrast with some previous years, when farmers bunched their hog production so that markets were overloaded with pork in the fall and early winter. Some market forecasters have said that November and December would bring excessive market supplies of hogs and sharply lower prices. They based their guesses on the official reports of late spring farrowings. The USDA pig crop report, of last June showfed that 2,- 794,000 sows farrowed in April and May. This was 9 percent more than a year before. On the other hand, sow farrowings in April. and May were about 20 percent smaller than the average for 10 years, 1950-59. Another fact -- on Sept. 1 the USDA estimated that the number of pigs 3 to 6 monthsold was 10 percent greater than it was a year before. A c o r r e s p o n d i n g i n c r e a s e i n slaughter was recorded in October. The increase in marketings came seven months after the reported increase in farrowings. This is about the normal birth-to-market period. Weekly market receipts may reach their peak for this year around mid-November. This guess is based on the fact that 1961 spring sow farrowings apparently reached their re 1259 N. <*reen St. EV 5-4600 both feet on the lever. That did it. . .rock, 2x4, and Roy went up and came down. . . never did find out what happened to the tulips. A belated birthday celebration and Thanksgiving dinner at the Fred Sells home honored Otto Neumann, who was 70 on Oct. 31. They served "Father's wild duck' according to Van. Other guests were Mr. and Mrs. Roy Tobin, and Sandy and Dick of Joliet. There was joy in the Murphy household when Daddy Ldward came home from V.A. west side hospital in time for Thanksgiving. He has been hospitalized for 9 weeks. Oluf Nielsen of Wonder Woods is a patient at Methodist hospital, Rochester, Minn. He went through Mayo's diagnostic set-up last weekend and will be hospitalized for about two weeks for treatment.. Cards will reach him at the hospital address. Thanksgiving guests at the Sam Lamont home were nephew Jack Stevenson, his wife and three children of Leamington, Ontario. These visiting Lamonts see their Canadian relatives more often than most of us see our Chicago ones. About 3 weeks ago Sam's sister and her husband spent two weeks at the Lake. . .the senior Jack Stevensons. peak in the first week of April. Prospective market supplies for the winter quarter (January-March) are about the same .as the actual supply last winter. Farmers' production plans in September pointed 'to a market supply of hogs next spring about 6 percent larger than in 1961. At the same time their intentions, as they reported them, pointed to about 5 percent more pigs for market next summer than were marketed this past summer. These are small increases. They could be largely offset by reduced supplies of broilers and increased consumer buying power. Still, it seems to be dangerous to predict that, prices for hogs will be as high during the first three quarters of 1962 as in the first three quarters of this year. What about hog markets < in the last quarter of 1961? We will ^iave the first clues from farmers when the next pig crop report is issued just before Christmas. Ordinarily, the favorable prices of the past 12 months, and especially those of this fall, would bring about substantial increases in production. But perhaps the increase will not be too big this time. For one thing, many farmers have reduced their production of corn and can get $1.20 a bushel for most of it from the government. Many hog producers already are producing about as many hogs as they can handle. Some have had serious disease problems. Finally, we remember that the two latest big increases in hog production, in 1955 and 1959, came only after prices had gone well up into the $20 for several months. So -- perhaps the increase in hog production will not be excessive next year. L. H. Simerl Department of Agricultural Economics RESEARCH FOR BIJND Helen Keller, who serves actively as counselor to the American Foundation for the Blind, states: "It is tragic that only half the conditions .vhich cause loss of sight are understood and, as a result, Ihere has not lieen discovered a sufficient remedy for thousands of injured eyes. The need of research and more trained personnel remain imperative." RECORD CROP YEAR The year 1961 appears . tb have been one of the best overall crop years on record. According to the Illinois Cooperative Crop Reporting Service, record or near record yields are indicated for all major crops. Pasture conditions have declined in some of the southern areas but are normal or above in the north. Weather conditions were generally favorable for allowing corn and late beans to develop to full maturity. The 1961 Illinois com crop is estimated by the Crop Reporting Service to be 642 million bushels, 5 per cent less than the 1960 crop but 26 per cent greater than the 1950-59 average. The yield per acre* forecast at 77 bushels an acre, one bushel higher than a month ago and the highest on record. The 1961 soybean crop is expected to be 160 million bushels - - 24 per cent above last year and 49 per cent above tJ:- 1950-59 average.
