The OPA Is changing the price ceiling on hogs from a weight basis to include all hogs- other: than sows, boars or stags. The ceilings on the , last three named classes is to be placed at 75 cents lower than on hogs. This takes the desig nation on weight off from .hogs and places it onjype, which is felt to be ad . hnprovement. This is done because of the supposed scar city of hogs and the improved out- I look for hog feed. The government (indicates, that the demand is for as much pork as it can get; Hogs on farms have , decreased ! since last year, when the , government was discouraging farmers from holding hogs for heavier weights.
