Hog Market Outlook From Princeton Writer
A Princeton writer to the Inter Ocean argues hog prices will rise this fall despite hopes for a low market. He warns farmers to avoid glutting the market, cites hog receipts in 1872 exceeding 1871 by about 800,000 and urges careful shipping to Chicago, advising farmers to avoid panic and maintain steady sales of 50,000 to 75,000 hogs weekly to sustain prices.
