Uncertainty was apparent from the outset of trading. Talk had been current in the board rooms and -on , the. trading . floor, that prices .should start about steady with Saturday's close. Instead, steady and persistent selling forced prices backward until losses of 2 cents a bushel were marked- in wheat during the first 10 minutes. The retrogression was a steady affair with prices yielding : and cent at a time. However,, a rebound of about a cent a bushel left the market hovering, almost inactive, the greater part of the remainder of the session. Shortlv before the close, however, selling orders appeared in volume and the day's biggest price breaks, approxi mately 3 cents a bushel were noted. A minor rally absorbed about a cent of the loss. Wheat closed weak and 1-2 cents a bushel below Saturday's final quotations, December 1.12- Y. May 1.16-. Federal Farms Comply With Program To conserve the soil and the fertility of the farms owned by the Federal Land bank and the Federal Farm Mortgage corpora tion, all acreages seeded on these farms in 1942 will be in com pliance with agricultural conser vation program allotments, J. J. Sechrist, Salem, secretary-treasurer of the National Farm Loan association serving Marion county, announced. "Not only will this keeD the farms in the best productive state possible until the properties can be returned to family ownership," Sechrist said, "but just as im portant, it will mean that the operators of these farms will be able to cooperate with the food for defense campaign."
