Excerpt from The Fats and Oils Situation, Vol. 174: Sept. 26, 1955 Supplies of food fats in the marketing year beginning October 1, 1955 will be about as large as the year before with increased output offsetting a sharp reduction in beginning stocks.

Prices of cottonseed oil and meal are down from a year ago and are expected to continue lower than a year ago at least through the winter. Production of peanuts is up 65 percent from the small cr0p in 19511 and supplies in 1955-56 again will be plentiful in contrast with the year before. CCC will acquire a substantial quantity and prices are likely to average near the support program loan value.
