Farm Market Review Corvallis June 25 1928
Butter markets remained firm with rising storage of top grades while overall storage fell from last year. Livestock posted high season prices for light yearling steers and hogs on light receipts, with lambs improving but lower quality lands dragging the market. Wool and mohair held firm prices. potatoes faced heavy acreage and low prices amid poor condition. red clover seed shows higher terminal prices due to possible seed shortages. hay and feeds trend toward a new crop basis with less hay and more feed grains.
