STOCK AND GRAIN MARKETS (Editors Note: The following market information is supplied from material obtained over the Government leased market wire in the office of the extension economist at Oregon state college. The material is in the form of a weekly summary of trends in the livestock market and is not intended to replace spot day by day market reports.) Cattle Markets Although offerings of cattle at North Portland totaled only 2,275 head for the week ending August 5. demand was narrow and prices con tinued downward. Best steers sola as high as *9.25 but the bulk of the offerings were medium grades to sell at *6.25 to *8. While these prices are a little lower than a month previous they are still slightly higher than a year ago. Normally cattle prices at North Portland decline from May to October with the decline averag ing around *1 per hundred. The de cline this year from May to August has been small compared with aver age for the period. Large supplies of slaughter cattle at Chicago during recent weeks have brought about a rapid decline in prices and at a season when nor mally they advance. Medium and heavy slaughter steers last week reached a new low for the year. Hog Markets Prices of all weights and classes of hogs at practically all markets continued the downward march with heavy slaughter hogs taking the greatest loss. A steady widen ing of the spread between prices of lightweights and heavy slaughter hogs has been in progress for the past several weeks. The spread the first week in August averaged around *2 a hundred. This condi tion is largely the result of the low est prices in history for refined lard. Light butchers at North Port land were *7.25 to *7.50, fully *2.25 less than a year ago. Chicago prices were around $3 less than a year earlier. Sheep and Lambs Lamb markets the first week in August were also weak with prices declining. With best lambs at North Portland going at *7. prices were about *1 less than a month earlier but practically the same as a year previous. Depressed markets re cently have curtailed direct and contract buying in the country with practically all areas reporting slow movement. Wool Quotations on wool at Boston were unchanged the week ending August 5 despite the reduced de mand. The trade showed most in terest in fine and quarter blood ter ritory wools, some grades of which showed a stronger tendency. Recently the agricultural market ing service, formerly the bureau of agricultural economics, estimated the 1939 wool crop of the United States at 375,700,000 pounds. This preliminary estimate is about 3,700,- 000 pounds or one per cent more than the quanltity shorn in 1938. about 6 per cent above the 10-year average, and the second largest on record. Production this year in Texas dropped sharply, thereby re ducing the total clip of the western range states below last year even though the other western states all showed some increase. Production in the native sheep states was esti mated at four million pounds more than In 1938. Leaves For Home— On Friday Mrs. Richard E.
