Webster&rsquo;s performance was affected by the decision of the manufacturer of a major heartworm medication to scale back sales and marketing support for this product during the fall months. Excluding this factor, Webster&rsquo;s sales rose approximately 16% in the second quarter, well above planned levels. (Business Wire) &gt;&nbsp; Smithfield Foods reported earnings of $4.1 million in the quarter ended Oct. 27, down 93% from $60.5 million in the same quarter last year. Low prices for hogs and a weak market for fresh pork products lowered earnings sharply in the second fiscal quarter for the nation&rsquo;s largest pork processing company.&nbsp; Sales rose 17% to $2 billion from $1.7 billion in the second quarter last year, with higher sales in the company&rsquo;s beef and processed meats businesses helping make up for a 36% decline in hog production revenue.&nbsp; (AP) ******************************************************************* GET READY!
