states have lowered germination
standards. There is plenty of good
seed left and available in Texas.
Best advice is to check seed tags
carefully for germination ratio.
EGGS — A more profitable
year is in prospect for Texas egg
producers. Prices should be high-
er, feed costs lower, and sales
are expected to be only slightly
under the record volumes of 1956
and 1957. Production is expected
to be off at the start of the year
but cheaper feed and fair prices
will likely encourage many
farmers to re-stock their hen-
houses. An added boon is antici-
pated for Texas producers in the
form of the new Texas Egg Law,
which should raise prices and
standards at the same time. Al-
so in the offing is a Texas egg
market report which the Texas
Deporatment of Agriculture
hopes to get underway before
spring. The proposed report
would include egg prices in
Houston, San Antonio and Dal-
las markets.
COTTON — Surpluses are
down due to the weather foul-up
of the 1957 crop. Although it is
too early to tell, prospects right
now are encouraging for 1958
cotton. Cottonseed oil prices are
way up and in good demand. Ex-
ports of American cotton indicate
stocks may be way down at har-
vest time thi fall.
