Urges Farmers To Feed 1931 Crops
Central South Dakota farmers who feed crops to livestock may fare better in 1931 than those relying on cash crops. W F Schnidt extension marketer told about 40 at Farm Quillock meeting at Marvin Hughitt hotel that wheat corn and oats prices look discouraging but an upward trend in livestock prices is expected. Hog and cattle prices should rise toward year end while sheep stay gloomy. Cattle prices may rise after July with farmers aiming to market early to avoid a July slump. Improvement is predicted around October 1 as business conditions improve.
