Two sets of sistei s dominat
ed the bleed fitting and show
manship classes. Donna and
Egg, Milk, And
Meat Prices
Continue Climb
An increase in milk prices,
with the help of advancing
hog and egg prices, overcame
an across-the-board decline
for grain prices, to increase
the cash returns to Pennsyl
vania farmers for the fourth
'consecutive month according
to the Pennsylvania Crop Re
porting Service.
Milk prices climbed to
$4.55 per hundredweight in
mid July from the mid-June
price of $450. The price is 5
cents higher than the same
period a year ago. The rise
in price is a seasonal trend
which results when milk pro
duction falls during the sum
mer months.
Hogs prices at $23 40 per
hundredweight continued to
gain and are now on the high
est level since July 1954
when the price was- $24 00.
The midduly price is $l.lO
above last month and $6.10
over the July 1964 figure.
July egg prices at $.34 per
dozen jumped 2 cents above a
month ago and are on the
same level as in 1964. While
egg prices increased, prices
for farm chickens remained
steady. Broiler and roaster
price fell slightly from .185 per
pound in June to .180 in July.
All grain crops showed a
price decline from mid-June to
mid-July Corn fell 1 cent to
$1 44 a bushel, wheat at $l3l
tell 4 cents, oats declined 2
cents to 78 cents a bushel, and
barley di opped from $lOl to
93 cents a bushel However, ex
cept for wheat which is one
cent lower than a year ago, all
the proceeding crop prices are
above the 1964 figures for the
same period. Alfalfa hay at
$34.50 was the only crop to
show an increase in price from
last month.
All Livestock prices, with
hogs as an exception, declined.
Steers and heifers dropped 50
cents per hundredweight from
mid-June to mid-July to aver
age $23.70. Calves at $26.40,
fell 90 cents from a month
earlier. Lamb and sheep prices
also showed declines. Even
with the monthly decline, live
stock prices are still above the
1964 prices for the same
period.
The Index of Prices Receiv
ed which is a measure of the
trend and change of prices re
ceived by faimers, was 236
pei cent of its 1910-14 base
