tinuing to creep upward slowly,
grain prices Saturday added frac-
tiooa to the week's small net
gains in a market strengthened
more by lack of selling pressure
than by any unusual Interest. ;
Wheat closed - cent high
er than Friday, May L2n-,
July $L31-y.
Prices in most pits finished
fractions to about a cent higher
than a week ago, with wheat and
corn about 4 cents below the
four-year highs established late
in January.
Closing Quotations
Salem One of Top
Gties in Buying
'Salem s effective buying in
come for the 12 months ending
March 31 will be 24 per cent
higher than for the like period
of last year," forecasts Sales Man
agement in a retail progress chart,
analyzed here by C. S. McElhin
ny, local representative for the
Oregon Mutual Life Insurance
. company.
"Salem is listed in the national
tabulation as one of the high-spot
cities, and its retail sales are
mounting 2 per cent over the na
. tion rate of gain," McElhinny
. states further. "In the current
year Salem's retail sales volume
has upped $5,000,000 over the 12
months previous The, year's fig
ures represent a high-mark in
retail sales."
