' ' ALFALFA GOES TO FIRM STATE Supplies Running Low is Re port of United States Economics Bureau FAMOUS PEACE TRIO WAXES ELEGANT -o i A'.falfa markets in the Central Y.'est turned somewhat firmer, while those In other sections con tiuued unchanged daring the week ending April l, according t.i t;ie Weekly Altalfa Market Re view of the United States Bu reau of Agricultural Economics. Receipts continued moderate with an increasing percentage of the higher grades at most mar kets. Some of the higher produc ing areas report supplies running i-jw. Increased receipts of extra leafy alfalfa hay at Kansas City t!i- past week continued barely jual to the demand, and on sev eral days more could have been placed. Demand from mills in creased somewhat at that market with the bulk of receipts contin ual of medium to lower grade wir'a a considerable proportion of m i sty and moldy hay, and alio some extremely dry hay with leaves badly shttered. Demand f ir hay of that quality was only fair. Shippers continued to offer aa outlet for moderate amount but report lighter orders from the s )utli due to the seasonal move ment of new hay in Arizona with in thefnext few days. March re-c-Mits at Kansas City were the lightest for the corresponding period in six years. This reduc tion in movement at that market is largely due to diminishing farm s'oeki, lower prices and baling being restricted by an Increasing activity in other farm work. Pacific Northwestern alfalfa markets remained steady during the past week. U. S. No. 1 al falfa was offered at Portland March 31 at aronnd 120.50 per i-m. Receipts at that market were m lerate and mostly from the Hermlston and Walla Walla dis tricts, where prices F. O. B. ship ping points are reported to range tttm $15.00 to $15.50 per ton. T'se. bulk of the arrivals from tliose sections graded U. S. No. 1 aiu! were In fair demand from stockyards, dairymen and rabbit f '-vlers. U. S. No. 1 alfalfa was q'iom March 31 at Spokane at $l?T;5-20.00 per ton, with offer ings mostly from the Yakima val ley where prices were reported around $15.00 per ton P. O. B. hipping point. The movement to Pus-t Sound terminals continued comparatively light. The heavy feedins: season in the Pacific Northwest is reported about over aiui with continuation of present warm weathtr alfalfa consump tion there was likely to he con-t::i-d only to amounts needed for balancing rations.

April 2 Mrs. Thorstln H ; ten, Easter Horten, Miss Olga Hoi ten, Ted Horten and Mrs. Hor ten's small grandson, Ted Horten, drove to Portland Sunday where ti ey were guests for the day at t!te home of Mr. and Mrs. J. S. I;ckson. son-in-law and daushter of Mrs. Horten. Registration of voters has been going on somewhat slowly the past few days at the county court house but is expected to gain mo mentum as the time draws near to April 15, the last day persons may register in order to rote dur ing" the May primaries. County Clerk U. G. Boyer has added ex tra help in tne registration, ae partment at the clerk's office tiere and has just about completed the long list of registrars who will have the authority to register cit izens in some 40 localities scat tered about over the county. At the present time there are about 23,000 registered voters in good standing In this county. Fol lowing the November election of 1928. the county clerk set to work to weed out all those electors who had not voted within two years, who had moved away or died. Cards were mailed to all those delinquent and when no reply was received, the names were stricken from the poll books. About 5,000 names have been pruned from the 27.233 registered voters which were listed on the books at the time of the election of 192S. In the city of Salem alone there were 2,159 names dropped from the poll books because of delin quencies. This left only 9,994 qualified voters living within the city limits of Salem. From these figures it ia evident that there will be considerable registering activity during the two weeks left in which to register.
