FEATURING OUR SECURITY FREE STALL
We make a high Security Free Stall from high grade
boiler type steel that will last and last. A bedding board
is installed and the stall is elevated above the scrape
area. Extra floor space is given to each animal and a
maximum drinking area is provided. A step along the
feed trough allows easy access to the feed but prevents
manure from falling into the trough.

bushels. In addition to larger
purchases by regular com
mercial customers, sales to the
USSR, estimated to total around
400 million bushels for 1972-73,
are much larger than had been
anticipated. A recent purchase of
15 million bushels by the Peoples
Republic of China also ac
centuates the turn in export
events.
In contrast to exports, the
estimate of domestic use has
dropped from 805 to 767 million
bushels. Wheat feeding is ex
pected to be lower because of
rising wheat prices relative to
feed grain prices.
Total disappearance is now
estimated at 1,892 million
bushels, nearly a fifth above the

previous record in 1965-66 and
well above the indicated 1972 crop
of 1,560 million bushels.
Prospective utilization suggests a
carryover of 534 milion bushels at
the end of the 1972-73 season. This
would be nearly 300 million below
the estimate published in August
and would be the least since 1967.
Hard Red Winter (HRW) wheat
is expected to account for a
larger share of exports than
usual. Even with a large supply
on hand in 1972-73, a record
disappearance is expected to
result in the lowest HRW
carryout since 1951-52, and could
place HRW in a relatively tight
supply position prior to the start
of the new crop harvest next
May.
