NATIONAL EGG MARKET - AT A
GLANCE; Prices were unchanged under an
about steady and cautious market tone.
Demand was mixed in a range of slow to
good, mostly fair. Retail features remained
limited. Suplies were available except jum
bo and occasionally extra-large were short.
Breakers were unaggressive and were
offered ample supplies of shell eggs. Live
fowl pnees were unchanged to lower and
most plants ran reduced schedules due in
part to resistance from finished product
buyers.

ACRES HOG UPDATE: Live
hog futures closed from 22 points
lower on the spot option to 63
points higher on the December
option. Deferred strength was
attributed to spillover strength
from the catde pits and the futures
discount to cash. Product weak
ness early in the session limited
buying interest which was offset
by light selling interest due to the
thoughts of decreased slaughter
figures from triple digit tempera
tures. The spot option was pres
sured late in the session by expec
tations for increased receipts
tomorrow due to moderating
temperatures.
