POULTRY MEN AMONG HEAVIEST SUFFERERS NEWARK, Feb. 25. CP) A new low level of farm prices which has not been equalled within the last 18 years was rerorded when the Index dropped to 94 Jan.

15 according to th current report of the United States department of agriculture. This is a three-point drop from the figure of the previous month and 40 points below Jan. 15, 1930, the report stales. An even gloomier prospect of the lm mediate future is pictured by th ree port which predicts stlU lower prices for Feb. 15 due to the price declines at the central markets up to Feb.

10. Small advances occurred In th price ot potatoes, pples. cattle, lamba and chickens but these wer insufficient to offset sharp declines in dairy and poultry products and the slightly lower prices of grains, cotton and hogs. New Jersey's important poultry in-duMry suffered greatly from this price decline. Exceptionally heavy receipts coupled with excessive holdings ot storage rggs have brought egg prices so low as to barely cover their marketing costs.

The usual seasonal advance In the piire of chickens was below the average In January due to relatively large receipts. With receipts gradually diminishing during the spring and relatively low storage storks the report stales the seasonal prices advance! should he snout average for the spring as a whole.
