If the eye of a two, three or four-year-old hen is getting null, iiat ana sunxen, ner profitable days are over no matter how good she has been during the post year.

Egg Quota Behind Failure of egg production to show tne gum anticipatea nos tent encour agement to the late fall futures egg markets, although the seasonal cash market advance to date Is only av erage, says Saturday's Oregon State college extension service. Crop correspondents are report ing to the federal service that both aize of farm flocks and the number ui cHKa pruuuueu per uuun, vuuviuuu to fall behind the comparable fig ures of a year ago. Should prices advance further, however, it Is con sidered probable that less culling of flocks will be carried out this fall than would otherwise have been done. On the Pacific coast there was a moderate decline in egg production ln all states, but ln California the seasonal decline has been more se vere than usual, tending to support the common opinion that produc tion In that state this fall will be unusually light due to smaller and fewer farm flocks. Interest ln the September pou! - try market was centerea largely in dressed poultry in cold storage since lwaa was reached the first or Sep tember. WAf.TmVA PEKSO-NALS J lly G. C.

Reduced Fares Scenic Highway Careful Drivers Express Carefully Handled Farm Production Moderate Farm Price Index Remains Same As Of Month Ago Farm production 1b moderate but prices showed little change during the last month, says the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, U. 8. Depart ment of Agriculture, In Its October 1, report on the farm situation. Tho farm price index stands at 60, the same as a month ago, compared to 62, the low point In June and 72 a year ago. Prices of cotton and wheat show a "slight Improvement," as com pared with prices a year ago, but prices of hogs, dairy products and potatoes are "materially lower." The general level of beef cattle prices Is reported at about the same as that of a year ago. The bureau estimates the supply of wheat In North America at about 25,000.000 bushels more than last year's, and In Europe at about 60,-j 000.000 bushels above that of a year ago, but says that prospects are for substantially less wheat in Russia and China. The Southern Hemis phere larvest is still about two months away. United States wheat exports so far this season are re ported to have been about one-third as large as those to date a year ago. "From the standpoint of the United States farmer, the wheat situation at this time 1UII11 UP about as follows," says a. A. Collier ln a summary of the wheat situation: "First a fairly steady domestic milling demand for red spring wheat, high quality am ber durum, and soft red winter. Sec cfid, a continuiod .ck of export outlet for our surplus stocks of hard winter In the central and south western states and of white wheats in the Pacific northwest, because of reduced requirements in Europe, tar iff and milling restrictions ln import ing areas, and sharp competition from Canadian and Southern Hemis phere supplies." The bureau finds that "the east ward movement of grass cattle 1b not being hurried this fall because feed Is abundant on the ranges, il lative cattle and grain prices are re garded as favoring the feeder, but the availability of credit will largely govern the number bought for feed ing. There has been no such early movement of lambs out of the west as there was last summer when the ranges were hit by drought, and a much larger proportion of the lambs moved to market have gone directly to slaughter rather than to Corn Belt feed lots." Viewing the hog situation, the bureau says that "supplies of hogs for the winter marketing season October to April are smaller than last year's but for next summer larger supplies are a possibility. There are indications that this fall's pig crop may be larger than that of last fall. Moreover, cheap corn and feed crops well. distributed, as Is the case this fall, have usually resulted ln the past ln heavier feeding and ln a larger pig crop the following spring." Total milk production on Septem ber 1 Is reported as "running about the same as at that time a year ago. Production par cow Is the lowest ln seven years, due chiefly to poor pastures and light grain feed ing, but a, four per cent decrease In milk per cow Is about offset by four per cent more cows in the country: Carlot Ishlpments of fruits and vegetables are reported db "approach ing their annual peak, averaging more than 3,000 cars per day. w i t Kit nkii,ioi:kh (JO BACK TO WH PARIS (fn Negligees for winter wear hark back to the elegant mode of the sophisticated seventies.
