New York Eggs
Wednesday, September 27
Local wholesale interest was
light, generally limited to regular
customers for immediate needs.
There were too few cash tran
sactions to report wholesale
values this morning; most sales
are to be billed on market values
to be determined Thursday.
Floor stocks are tending to
accumulate slightly on all but
jumbos and are mostly ample.
Offerings from shipping points
are reported readily available
from nearby and Southern areas.
Carton movement into retail
channels is fair but irregular.
Undertone unsettled and weak.
Local Grain
Thursday, September 28
These prices are made up of the
average prices quoted by five
participating local feed and
grain concerns. It should be
noted, however, that not every
dealer handles each commodity.
All prices are per bushel, except
for ear corn which is per ton.
The average local grain prices
quoted Thursday, September 28,
1972 are as follows:
Bid+ Offered+
Ear Corn 46.00 52.33
Shelled Corn 1.51 1.67
Oats (local) .81 .95
Oats (western) 1.07 1.16
Barley 1.14 1.36
Wheat 1.68 1.87
+Bid is the price the dealer
will buy from the farmer
delivered to the mill. Offered is
the price the dealer will sell for at
his mill.
DUNCAN CORN CRIB
Rods Slide Quickly Into Place
. Lock Panels Into Un
broken Cylinder Of
Galvanized Mesh!
NOW, you can own a per
manent, lifetime, all steel
mesh corn crib for less than
the cost of many temporary
cribs ... have all the strength
and anti-rust characteristics
the galvanized mesh can have.
Using the Interlocking joint
panel connections you quickly
hook together and lock with
rods ... creating an unbroken
cylinder of 2 or 5-gauge steel
mesh with the ability to stand
nressures and strains far in
excess of any which may be
put upon it under normal use.
The simple “J-bolt” method
of attaching the steep roof to
the mesh uses the inherent
strength of each to reinforce
the other. A generous 6 inches
of overhang has been provided
for greater protection In
terlocking sheets of heavy
gauge metal give the “Rod-
Lok” Corn Crib roof strength
