The Associated Press average of CO' stocks was up .2 of a point at 39.8. Transfers of 517,060 shares compared with 454,940 Thursday.

Available Eggs Being Hatched, Crosby Reports . - ' Oregon hatcherymen are work- Ing their equipment to the extent . that suitable hatching eggs are - available in providing fall-hatched f chicks for the nation-wide meat i producing campaign, reports H. -' E." Cosby, head of the poultry husbandry department at OSC. ' who attended the fall meeting of the Oregon Baby Chick associa ' tion in Salem. ' This was one of the best meet ings in the history of the associa tion, he said, with around 80 members attending, including group of visiting operators from Washington. ' - The labor situation is such that ' Jt is -doubtful that as much in crease - in chicken and egg 'pro duction will occur next year as would otherwise be possible, the hatcherymen agreed. Increased costs of production will doubtless - force a slight increase in the price of baby chicks, it was said. South Wants Hairy Vetch, Not so Much Peas Oregon's cover crop seed pro gram is slightly out of Joint in that farmers are growing about ; three times as much Austrian winter peas as hairy vetch, where as the south wants more hairy - vetch than peas, reports E. R. Jackman, extension crops special ist at Oregon State college. This situation is not likely to be helped next year because of hairy vetch weevil in the northern Wil lamette valley counties. Eastern V Oregon, however, at present Is largely weevil-free, and hairy , vetch offers a chance for making money for farmers in the irri ' gated counties such as Crook, Deschutes, Klamath, .Malheur, Baker and the irrigated parts of Umatilla county, Jackman be lieves. 1943 Hop Crop Gets Attention PORTLAND, Oct 30-;P)-Hops (rown a year or more ago and fcops yet to be grown occupied the stage in the Oregon markets last week, the department of ag ricuiture revealedr Friday. Because the 1942 crop Is prac tically cleaned up, dealers bid for 1943 futures, and for 1938 an 1940 hops. Growers were reluctant to con tract for next year's crop because of uncertain costs. In southern Oregon dealers ran the price. 40-65 cents per pound to growers for regulars. Options on uncertified .1940 hops were reported at 60 cents, .20 cents down, pending certifka lion. Some small lots of 1938 reg ulars brought 25-30 cents. Try m ef Ctlnets . rmtWt Amaxln SUCCESS far what ailment ara AfrLICT.

G. B. Bouquet, professor of vege table crops at Oregon State col lege. While Oregon's production is high, the country as a whole may show an increase of only 13 per cent as compared with the 38 per cent asked for this spring, reports he has received indicate. With the army taking its full quota, this may mean a supply of processed tomatoes for civilian use some 25 per cent under normal require ments. Oregon's abundant crop makes it possible , for consumers here to can larger amounts than usual of tomatoes and tomato Juice, v ' V v-v - ; Gardeners can have a supply of fresh tomatoes well into the fall by storing all mature green tomatoes before they are injured by rain or frost, he adds. The vine need not be ' removed but merely the green tomatoes which are fully mature can be stored in a cool place where they will ripen slowly. Plan Pre-School Clinic .

Wheat, up, as much as cent at one time, gave up much of this advance when buying evaporat ed late in the session. Wheat closed V lower to higher compared with Thursday, December $1.24-, May $1.26 15; corn unchenged to . up. December 79, May 84-; oats - higher; ; rye up and soybeans -l higher. Prices of soybeans were largely on a. bid and asked basis, with few actual transactions completed. I Grain .men attributed the ear ly buying to several factors, in cluding attractiveness of season al low prices in the corn and. rye pits and trade belief that an up ward reaction was due as a re sult of recent liquidation. Upward revision of parity prices and re newal of the controversy in Wash ington over ceiling regulations on some processed -farm commodi ties, including flour,' attracted at tention. . .

G. Nibler, assistant, county agent. A limited supply of this seed has been obtained from a few growers along with a few pounds of Imported stocks left over, This seed wiH.be sold at 65 cents a pound. ' , ; Subterranean clover is recom mended " for pasture seedings on any. wejl! drained soil.' It may be used with grass 'seedings at the rate of about three pounds to the acre or . seeded alone at 1he rate of 8 to 10 pounds to 4he acre. Fall seedings or late spring seed- ings have both proven successful. Seeded this fall .the clover makes an abundant' s p r i n g and early summer pasture. It has a unique property, burying its seed, where in it . derives the name . Subter ranean.
