Market notes on 1918 crop yields and commodity prices
Crop shortage estimated around 25 percent with wheat futures at about 1.74 a bushel for December and May contracts. Live cattle quotes in Port Worth from 6.50 to 7.70 per hundredweight while hogs rise toward 10.07. Texas creamery butter scarce with prices high, livestock feeding strained by drought, and produce exports steady. Potatoes and cabbage firm, oranges arriving in Texas in growing quantities, and California harvests winding down as shortages persist.
