New Strength in Wheat Warns of Market Sensitivity
The Agricultural Department’s March 1 report shows farm wheat at 114 million bushels vs 137 million a year ago, while mill and elevator stocks total 70 million vs 102 million last year. Export demand shapes future prices as the 1924 crop yields higher overall, with a tighter carryover suggesting next year’s prices may rise. The outlook for the farmer remains positive, with cotton and corn positions improving and exports moderating surpluses.

Hog Market Looms With Rising Prices and Shortage
The column notes a prior warning about selling hogs and corn to cope with a short corn crop. Hog prices rose from about 10 to 14 dollars, adding over seven dollars per hog and more than fifty million dollars in additional income for farmers next year. Despite a hog crop at least 25 percent below normal, the shortage persists and opportunity in hogs remains.
Cotton yields and care raise per acre potential
A Texas newspaper prize compared five acre cotton with state averages. The winner produced almost 11 bales on five acres, about 2 bales 80 pounds per acre, far above the state average of 142 pounds per acre. The note suggests better care could boost yields though not all land will hit such levels. Martinsville reports funeral attendance and local notes from March 13.
