NOTICE OF CLAIM DAY Notice is hereby given to all persons that January 4, 1960, is the claim date in the estate of FRANK DAVID ANDERSON, Deceased, pending in the County Court of Knox County, Illinois, and that claims may be filed against the said estate on or before said date without issuance of summons. Dale F. Anderson and Marjorie A. Junkin, Executors Peel, Stickell, Henning and Mathers Attorneys 3T packers traded Veterans Day for Monday, Nov.

16, and planned some killing today. These trades of working days seems to have confused the trade somewhat and we find that supplies were just a little higher Thursday, the last marketing day. Heavy hogs are hard hit and, In all cases, are showing less comeback after a decline. In reading market reports across the nation, there is a reluctance on the part of marketmen to commit themselves on these heavy hogs when they range over 250 pounds. Repeats Suggestion So, as we said before, we believe that all the way down the line farmers will be far better off by holding their market weight down in the range of 200 to 220.

It looks unreasonable for a packer to buy two inches of backfat on a hog when he can buy the hogs with 1.5 backfat. With lard selling at about cents, it would be reasonable to suppose that meat packers prefer the leaner hog just to keep from losing money on the lard. However, studies have been conducted that show that there needs to be about 1.5 backfat on a hog to make him of the best quality and grade to command the best prices. As we study the. meat-type hogs, we begin to find that we can get hogs too lean and we are almost in as bad a shape as one that is too fat.

Pork needs so much fat between the lean to make it most desired by the consumer. Pork can be either too coarse or too soft if it fails to have enough fat. Compare? Rabbits It is just the case of proper muscling, like the difference between a jack rabbit and a tame rabbit. One is too tough to eat due to hard tough muscling, the other just right due to less exercising but both have about the same per cent of lean meat. So in hogs we are finding there is a difference in muscling and there has been tests on both hogs and cattle that this difference.

It is very hard to believe that the hpg farmer needs to worry too much about hog business outside the corn belt, as it seems the corn belt area is best for efficient production of pork. Quality is produced in more abundance in this region. So we need to concentrate on making our hogs high in quality and up the consumption of pork. You do your part and give meat for Christmas. The high marketing day fell Monday, Nov.

9, when the top stood at $13.25. While the bulk of the 180 to 220 were moving to the scale at $12.75 $13, sows sold at $11.50 Herni Forecasts Price Spread On Hog Market The hog market indicates a further widening in the price spread between heavy-lardy hogs and lightweight meaty hogs, according to a livestock market outlook by Dick Herms, Peoria. The latter are expected to hold firm while others are expected to get lower. Farmers should keep feedlots topped out for hogs as Ihey reach 200 pounds, Herm advised. Cattle prices are expected to go lower as numbers increase.

Lightweight cattle will be in the greater demand, while heavy and off-quality cattle are expected to get lower. Feeder cattle should hold about steady. The lamb market is expected to hold steady on the more desirable lambs, with- heavier off quality lambs working lower. NOTICE OF CLAIM DAY Notice is hereby given to all persons that Alonday, January 4, 1960, is the claim date in the estate of IRVIN G. TOLLE, Deceased, pending in the County Court of Knox County, Illinois, and that claims may be filed against the said estate on or before said date without issuance of summons.
