Market Review from Hearne Democrat Houston Dec 7
A sudden relaxation in one section of the South lowers cotton prices below nine cents as estimates for the crop rise. New Orleans and Texas figures suggest around 15 million bales with December New York notices swelling to 30 thousand. Texas retailers replenish for holidays while California vegetables and oranges enter the market. Turkeys sell 10 to 11 cents, eggs trend up with scarce cold storage, butter prices rise, and the chicken market remains overloaded.
