Stock Market
Profits Taken
Early Advances Fall
Later in Day "With
Selling Turnover
NEW YOR K, Sept 18.tfV
Profit cashing on Wednesday's
brisk rally crippled the stock mar
ket Thursday after many leaders
had sprinted into new high ground
for the year with gains of frac
tions to a point or so at the open
ing. While there were few weak is
sues, there were enough fraction
al losers at the close to put the
Associated Press average of 60
stocks down .1 of a point at 44.
The composite jumped .5 of a
point in the preceding session, best
upturn since July 21.
Dealings, fast in the first hour,
slackened later but transfers for
the full proceedings totalled 790,
865 shares. The turnover of the
day before was 886,560, largest
since July 29.
Shares . on the losing side in
cluded US Steel, Bethlehem, Gen
eral Motors, Chrysler, American
Telephone, Western Union, 'Ana
conda, Kennecott, DuPont, Union
Carbide, Douglas Aircraft, United
Aircraft, J. I. Case, US Rubber
and NY Shipbuilding.
Dow Chemical was an isolated
soft spot, dropping 2Y points in
the wake of the announcement
new common stock would be is
sued for subscription by present
shareholders.
Consolidated Aircraft, strong
performer recently, managed to
hold a gain of . American &
Foreign Power preferred was up
2 at a new 1941 high. Emerging
with modest improvement was
Woolworth, Chesapeake & Ohio,
Texas Corp. and Westinghouse.
Grain Market
Rises Again
CHICAGO, Sept. 18.-(;P)-This
prices was halted Thursday when
the market rallied briskly in the
final hour, scoring net gains of
to 1 cents compared with
Wednesday's finish.
Wheat and other grains had dis
played more weakness early in the
i session, due to profit taking and
hedging sales as well as another
sharp break in soybean prices, but
after noon selling diminished and
buying to cover previous short
sales disclosed the market was
oversold.
The president's request for ad
ditional lend-lease funds, includ
ing appropriations for purchase
of agricultural commodities, stim
ulated some late buying. Mills and
other commercial interest were
reported in the market
Closing wheat prices were $1
22- for December and $1.26-
for May. 't ;
Apple Demand"
Holds Good
PORTLAND, Sept. 18.-;P)-The
demand for apples continued good
on the Portland wholesale market
Thursday. ' ?
Spitz, Delicious, King and Jona
ithan varieties moved well at
around $1.25 box jumble pack.
Good quality was not in very hea
vy supply.
A small supply of strawberries
sold quickly at $2.25 crcte.
Cantaloupes sold to $1.40 on
Dillards. Demand was fair for
all kinds, although fewer spears
were shown.
Pumpkins, Squash
In Store Window
:i LEBANON This week in all
of the windows of a Portland
.store pumpkins and squashes
grown in this vicinity are dis
played. For the sixth year L. E.
Arnold, wjio is regularly in
charge of the Linn county exhibit
at the state fair and who for many
years has been general chairman
of the strawberry fair committee
in Lebanon, sent seven tons of
squash and pumpkin, most of
them grown by John Reddy and
William Tapper, who live near
the Sanderson bridge. The pump

the largest weighing 170.
First Muscat Grapes
Offered at Portland
" PORTLAND, Sept lB.-i&i-The
first -local muscat grapes of the
season were offered Thursday on
the . east side farmers' wholesale
market at $1.40 box.--IjConcord
type' grapes moved a
little -s lo we r, generally - at 50
'cents box, '
Hale peaches from The Dalles
sold for 90 cents box while Hales
and Elbertas -from Yakima
brought 75 cents.
Corn Matures Slowly
Due to Rainy Days ,
' PRATUM The cool wet weatb
ercaused. corn to mature very
slowly making it doubtful if any
corn will get ripe enough to keep
before frost will come.
This is the tisfie of the year
whott silos ousht1 in 'be filled but
fields are too wet and farmers too
" busy with other ; thing. - Getting
help is another problem.

Yellow Onions
Asked by Cuba
18 Carsof Corn Sent
From Salem During
The Past Week
With Oregon . moving . 50 cars,
Washington 22 arid Idaho 100 a
slight decrease in onion ship
ments for the week ending Sep
tember 13 was noted by the agri
cultural marketing service.
There was a good demand for
Oregon yellow onions moving in
to Cuban markets. Western Ore
gon growers are ; receiving $1.35
per cwt. net for their US No.. 1
grade or 33 cents more than the
season's opening price. Yakima
onions are selling off the track in
western markets at 65 to 70 cents
packed in 50 pound sacks.
Celery loadings increased to 67
cars under a better demand as
compared with 26 last week and
42 a year ago. Oregon continued
to load corn from the Salem dis
trict with 18 cars out for the week.
The peach movement was light
er with Oregon shipping one car
and Washington 86 as compared
with 176 for Washington and 35
for Idaho last week. Oregon Hales
in boxes averaged $1.04 per box
on the Chicago market as the
week closed.
Fresh prune loadings were up
slightly with 549 cars moving as
compared with 504 cars a week
ago. The O r e g o n-Washington
fresh prune deal is about over
with the remaining tonnage ex
pected to move to processors.
There has been no damage from
rain in the eastern sections of the
two states as the week closed, but
the crop in the west was material
ly reduced. Canning of the west
ern crop is about completed and
some prunes are being shipped
from the eastern section for pro
cessing. As the week closed Ida
ho Italian prunes packed in half
bushel baskets averaged $1.58 on
the New York market.
Carlot shipments from the
northwest during the week in
cluded: Oregon, Apples 7, celery
17, corn 18, onions 50, peaches 1,
pears 213, potatoes 58, prunes 25
cars, totaling 389.

Most Important change In
the program is the abandonment
of soil-depleting commercial
vegetables and total allotments
and the substitution of a mini

requirement, thus lending great

production requirements and
still emphasizing soil conserva

somewhat
The wheat program remains
much the same as last year, ex
cept that It will not be necessary
to grow up to 80 per cent of a
farm's allotment to qualify for

of boron or borax in collection

cover crops and perennial le

combined this year with the farm
conservation program, provide for
the practices of rotational and
limited grazing under approved
plans, to encourage conservation
on smaller ranches and on west
ern Oregon livestock farms.
