Farmers and feeders attended a June 11 livestock marketing meeting at Henry gymnasium led by Phil Evans of the Chicago Producers Association. Evans discussed a June survey showing cattle on feed and weights, predicting higher prices for medium to heavy cattle amid tighter supply. Overcrowding of unfinished cattle from broadcast areas and surplus hogs in feed lots were noted, with nine months or more of continued excess hog marketings. William Burroughs of Toluca chaired the session for the Marshall Putnam Farm Bureau.
