Recovery Power;
Average Up .2
strength was displayed by al
sorted . favorites, particular! - air I
transports, in Friday's stock mar-
kef, but many leaders still lacked
recovery nower.
Forward tendencies were shown
at the start. There was a later
letdown on slack volume. Deal
fogs and trends picked up toward
the last although .final prices
were Drettv well mixed up.
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.
Issues of United, Eastern and
American Airlines retained gains
of a point each as reports were
head that all-cargo service on.i
nation-wide basis would get un
der way soon. : '
- On the upside were NY Central
Southern Railway, General Mo-
tors, Chrysler, Montgomery Ward
Commonwealth & Southern pre
f erred. United Aircraft, Ameri
, fan -TeleDhone. Texas Co. Ana-
i- conda, Kennecott, Consolidated
! Edison. North American, Genera

. 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.

Tomato Crop
Is Extra Good
Oregon gardeners have been
singularly favored this fall with
an excellent , tomato ripening sea
soning in contrast to other parts
of the United States, says A. 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.

prices were on the recovery trail
only temporarily Friday, although
much of the early, gains ranging
from fractions to 1 cents a
bushel were retained at the close.
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. . .

' The seed of subterranean clover
which has proven so - successful
for pasture here in the valley is
available ' through the county
agent's office, according to W. 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. Being able . to , bury, its
seed, it reseeds" itself to start out
again as "soon " as ' the fall - rains
come. Present results indicate that
it is by far the best pasture clover
we have, being particularly adapt
ed to pasture because of its. low
growing habit It is of no use
for hay. : "
