ISI3 20 Registered Jerseys Sent Oregon Catt'e Breeders . to Inspect - Rest - Blood lines From Islands " A shipment of 20 registered Jer erys will arrive in Salem todaj Rex Rosa, -president of the Ore son Purebred Livestock associa tion ' said s yesterday. The cattle are from - a consignment of two ears shipped west by Wallace Mac - Monniea, one of the nation's fore most Importers of registered cattle from the Jersey Islands of Madi son, NJ. MacMonles was one of three importers getting the last available shipment from the is lands. The cattle will be stationed at the Fairgrounds for the t inspec I tioa of breeders from all over, the northwest and California, who wish to bny or look. . Some buy ers are expected from as far away as Colorado, Rosa said. Approxi I mately SS per cent of the herd has , teen sold and are awaiting de ll very, he reported. .1 In charge of, the herd will be ! Warren 8parrow,r known by Jer sey breeders as one of the out standing' Jersey authorities , In America, ' Assisting Sparrow will . be Eddie Harnett, Just recently, . from the Jersey Islands, and bim- self an authority on the best Jer sey lines. "" . The arrlT-tf ft this herd Is per haps the beut news for Jersey breeders since 1939 when the Ore gon association won the National Accomplishment cup for being the state which ha made the most progress for that year In improv ing Jersey herds within Oregon. Two cars comprise this par ticular shipment said Ross, who was president of the Oregon Jer sey Cattle association In 1938 and 1939, but one carload will be spotted at Portland for exhibition and sale. The exact time of ar rival Is not knew. Stock Mfxket Has foeguiar Session Leaders Drop to Slightly Lower Level; New High Hit by Chesapeake NEW YORK, Dc. 10-P)-Buy-ers concentrated on a handful of specialties in today's stock mar ket and left many leaders strug gling at slightly lower levels. Quotations improved moderately in the final hour. The Associated Press average of 0 stocks was off .1 of a point at 44. Dealings were negligible ' most of the time and transfers of 610,095 shares compared with 632,335 yesterday. Light but persistent year-end tax selling received the principal blame for the spotty perform ance of the list. Business de velopments were more encourag ing than otherwise although even here there were thoughts ' of a nearby seasonal let-down. Fractions to a point or so were pinned on US Steel, Chrysler, US Rubber, J. I. Case, Douglas Air craft, Eastman Kodak, American Can, International Nickel, J. C. Penney, Du Pont, NY Central and International Paper common and preferred. NY Shipbuilding, American Shipbuilding and Newport News Shipbuilding turned up on fur ther prospects of big British or ders to replace ocean war cas ualties. Ahead also were Coca Cola, Alleghany Prto preferred, General Motors, Allied .Chemical, JohnsvManville and Kennecott. Chesapeake & Ohio was up at a new 1940 top. December Wheat Leads in Advance CHICAGO, .Dec. 10-fl3)-All commodity futures on the board of trade advanced today, led by the December wheat contract which closed at 904 -H. a gain of cents at the extreme over yester day's final quotation. All wheat futures finished the session at or near the day's best prices. Wheat advanced to cents over Monday's - close, December 80-. May S-. ' " , Wheat started lower partly In sympathy with an easier trend In securities but further congestion soon developed In the Decemper contracts, which at times sold al most 4 cents over May. This ln lueaced sufficient buying of the deferred deliveries to. result in a fair advance. - '.
