Virginia and Maryland Livestock Progress Bright for 1936
Virginia and Maryland livestock producers enter 1936 with optimism due to strong late fall prices. Virginia exhibitors topped the Baltimore show with Grand Champion steer and top carload of fat steers, plus a Grand Champion trio, while hog prices exceeded the 1910-14 average. West Virginia pursues cooperative marketing, purebreds, and calf testing. Maryland notes wins in Baltimore with a Southdown Grand Champion lamb from Cremona Farms selling for one dollar a pound.
