Stanard of the Illinois Department of Agriculture has issued a stern warning to hog breeders to plan their 1958 farrowing program with special care. He said too large an increase-in ho^ production in 1958 would incur, the danger of. badly depressed prices beginning, with, the fall of that year. He pointed out that the Illinois hog-corn ratio highest point since •^May, 1954, in mid - September reached the highest point since May, 1954, and this situation usually gives rise to •increased farrowings. Stanard said a seven per cent increase in farrowings has been forecast for the period December through February but that increases above that percentage would make the risk of sharp price declines much greater.
