World Market Falls Cent
, . or More on Prospects
' v of Huge Harvest
! "CHICAGO, Jnly 8-(P-De-pressed'
by prospects of a huge
Canadian wheat crop and by
heavy marketings of US grain
as harvesters progress northward,
.world wheat prices today slump
ed mora than a cent a bushel to
the lowest levels in several years
in - some markets.
1 Chicago wheat closed 94-1
cent lower than yesterday, at the
lowest Quotations of the year and
the lowest for July in seven
years. Final figures of 66-
for July contracts and HVk-Wn
were only 1 to 4 cents above
the season's bottom and were
about 14 cents below the highs
established a month ago.
Crop Over Average
Liverpool prices also were
off at the lowest point
in nine years. Winnipeg quota
tions, which dropped 2 yes
terday, tumbled about 1 ai one
stage to new lows for the past
several years. There were mod
erate rallies at Chicago and Win
nipeg from the day's bottom
levels, however.
- The Canadian government re
port showing the heat crop
condition to be 102 per cent of
grain men to estimate winter
and spring wheat production in
Canada mar total as hl.h as 4o0
or 460 million bushels compared
with 350 million produced last
season. This would be the largest
in 11 years and the fourth lar
gest on record.
The US ' government will re
lease its July forecast Monday.
Feeble . Gestures
Of Recovery Fail
Stock Market Falls Back
Into Quiet State as
Slow Day- Ends'
NEW YORK, July 8-(i5VThe
stock market made few feeble
recovery gestures today, then re
sumed the slumber which it
started at the beginning of the
week.
While some utilities, coppers
rubbers, mail orders and special
ties managed to emerge with mo
dest advances, numerous Issues
finished unchanged to down a
shade.
Attendance in boardrooms was
virtually at sero, made trades
electing to lengthen the week
end holiday. Dealings, conse
quently, were exceptionally light.
In fact, the turnover of 11 3,320
.shares was one of the smallest
two-hour aggregates in 21 years.
Actually it was the lowest toI
ame since June IS, last year,
when the figure of 104,000 share
was the most diminutive since
1918. It compared vlth 1S5.400
a week ago. Dealings for the
week amounted to only 1,412,130
shares, lowest mark since 1921.
In the preceding week 3.126,
290 shares changed hands.
Losses and gains of fractions
to i point or so were about
equally divided at the finish with
the result the Associated "ress
average of 60 stocks was un
changed at 46.2. Due to a run-up
Wednesday, following the Fourth
of July recess, - this ' composite
showed a net advance on the
week of .7 of a point.

HopPrograM
Study Slated
Hearing Here Friday Next
Week to Study Change
in Market Plan
Improvements in the federal
program for Pacific coast hops
and establishment of the 1939
salable quantity will be consid
ered: by y Oregon-Washington
growers on Jnly 11 In Yakima,
Wash., and Jnly 14, at the Ma
rion hotel in Salem. A final
session of the three-state hear
ing will be held July 17 in Santa
Rosa; Calif.
Word of the hearing dates
was received from the division
of marketing and marketing
agreements of the U. 8. depart
ment of agriculture at San Fran
cisco.
The hearing has been called
to consider amendments to the
marketing agreement and order
regulating hops grown in Cali
fornia, Oregon and Washington
proposed by the industry control
board administering the pro
gram.
Concurrently with each of the
three sessions, meetings will be
held to obtain information
needed to enable the secretary
of agriculture to establish the
salable quantity of 1939 hops as
required under the agreement
and order.
The federal hop marketing
program was Instituted at the
opening of the 1938 season at
the request of the .Industry In
efforts to stabilize hop produc
tlon in the United States in line
with consumption needs and pre
vent surpluses which demoralize
grower returns.
Changes Proposed
As proposed, the amendments
would provide the following:
1. Permit reduction of allot
ments made to growers who
make no effort to grow hops in
quantities equal to their allot
ments; 2. Make applicable to 1938
crop hops the 1939 allotment
certificates if a grower's 1939
production does not equal his
1939 allotment;
3. Permit a grower to pur
chase from another grower un
certificated hops in a quantity
equal to the difference between
the purchasing grower's produc
tion and his allotmen ;
4. Prevent substitution of
other hops for those upon which
insurance has been collected;
6. Grant exemption from quan
tity regulations of that quantity
of 1939 hops produced by a
grower and covered by contract
executed before June 14, 1938,
which is in excess of that grow
er's allotment.
Allotments Proportionate
The total salable quantity es
tablished for each crop year Is
allotted proportionately to each
grower on the basis of the quan
tity of hops he produced. Indi
vidual allotments represent that
portion of the total quantity of
the season's crop which each
producer may dispose of in inter
state commerce.
Notice of each grower's sal
able allotment will be forwarded
to his address of record immedi
ately following approval by the
secretary of agriculture of each
grower's 1939 crop estimate of
production, according to hop con
trol board headquarters here.
Determination of each grow
er's salable percentage of the
1939 crop is made after the to
tal quantity of hops to be pro
duced during the year by all
growers has been estimate
These individual salable per
centages are computed by divid
ing, the salable quantity of 1939
hops which will be approved by
the secretary of agriculture un
der terms of the agreement, by
the total quantity of hops pro
duced by all growers during the
year 1039. Each grower's al
lotment of the total salable
quantity will be that same sal
able percentage applied to each
grower's estimated 1939 produc

Berry Plant Care
Topic of Circular
Importance of Protecting
After Harvest Noted
by O. McWhorter
The period following straw
berry harvest is just about as
important to the plants as be
fore harvest, according to infor
mation contained in a new OSC
extension circular 828, entitled
"After-Harvest Care for Straw
berry Plants."
This mimeographed circular,
written by O. T. McWhorter, ex
tension horticulturist, and Wil
liam P. Cyrus, county , agricul
tural agent of Washington coun
ty, gives detailed information on
the care of a strawberry patch
to protect it againct insects and
diseases and to Insure the kind
of development needed to bring
most profitable future crops.
Fruit bud formation in the sin
gle crop strawberry is believed
to take place largely following
harvest and until late fall.
Information contained in the
circular includes suggestions re
garding cultivation, results to
be expected from fertilizers. Ir
rigation ' of strawberry fields,
elimination of crinkle disease
and strawberry crown moth. Co
pies may be had free from coun
ty agents in strawberry produc
ing counties.

Hop Market Is
Quiet, Steady
Attention Called to Meet
Here July 14 to Talk
Program Changes
' Hop markets on the Pacific
coast remained quiet but about
steady during the week ended
July 5, according to the Weekly
Hop Market Review of the Agri
cultural Marketing Service. De
mand from both domestic and
foreign interests was dull for
spot supplies and interest in con
trading for future deliveries of
new crop hops was less active. De
liveries on contracts were supply
ing most current needs of brew
ers which tended to limit trading
in the spot market to occasional
small lots for immediate require
ments. Crop prospects continued
generally favorable in West Coast
producing areas although condi
tions were somewhat irregular in
some sections.
The division of marketing and
marketing agreements of the de
partment of agriculture announ
ced July 1, that a public hearing
has been called on proposed
amendments to the marketing
agreement and order regulating
the handling of hops produced in
Oregon, California and Washing
ton. Sessions of the hearing will
open at 9:30 a. m. at Yakima.
Wash., July 11; at Salem, Ore.,
July 14; and at Santa Rosa, Cali
fornia, July 17.
A meeting will be held concur
rently with each session to obtain
the information needed to estab
lish the "salable quantity" of
1939 hops, as required under the
marketing agreement and order.
Proposed by Board
The amendments on which. evi
dence will be received at the three
sessions of the hearing were pro
posed by the hops control board
The board administers the mar
keting agreement and order.
The proposed amendments
would; permit reduction of al
lotments to growers who make
no effort to grow hops in quan
tities equal to their allotments;
make applicable to 1938 crop
nops the 1939 allotment certifi
cates, if a grower's 1939 produc
tion does not equal his 1939 al
lotment; permit a grower to pur
chase from another grower un
certificated hops in a quantity
equal to the difference between
the purchasing grower's produc
tlon and his allotment; prevent
substitution of other hops for
those upon which Insurance has
been collected; and grant ex
emption from quantity regula
tions on that quantity of 1939
hops, produced by a grower and
covered by a contract executed
before June 14, 1938, which is
in excess of that grower's allot
ment.
The "salable quantity" of
1939 hops will be determined by
the secretary of agriculture. Un
der the program, the salable
quantity is allotted proportion
ately to each grower, based on
the quantity of hops he produces.
Individual allotments represent
that portion of the total quan
tity of hops, produced by each
grower, which may be handled
in interstate commerce.
The proposed amendments
may be tentatively approved by
the secretary following the hear
ing if such action is warranted
by evidence presented at the
hearing. If the amendments are
tentatively approved they will be
submitted to the Industry for
final approval evidenced by a
vote of growers and the signa
ture of the handlers.

Steen Will Speak
On AAA Program
Will Steen, chairman of the
Oregon state AAA committee, will
represent the western division of
the triple A on a national radio
broadcast from Washington, D. C,
Tuesday, July 11. The program,
to be heard in the west at 8:30
a. m. over station KEX, will deal
with the general subject of "Agri- S
cultural Problems That Farmers
Are Solving With the Help of the
AAA." State committeemen from
Kentucky, Georgia, Maine and
Ohio will report for their sections
of 'the country.
Steen plans to explain a farm i
problem typical of the western
division and tell what farmers,
working through the AAA, are
doing to meet it. The broadcast .
will be a feature of the national "
farm and home hour and is made
possible by the fact that state
chairmen and state executive offi
cers will be in Washington at that
time for a conference to obtain
farmer suggestions for the 1940
farm program.
