National farm prices turned downward during the month. Mrs. Horrell said livestock prices held about steady while farm crop prices moved upward for grains, potatoes, vegetables and seeds. Hay, fruit and nut prices were down. Farmers also paid less for millrun, mixed dairy feed, laying mash, scratch grain and broiler mash.
