Co-Op Market
Set to Open ,
Wednesday i
The producer-consumer cooper-
ative market at 1288 State street
- is scheduled to open at 8 o'clock
Wednesday morning, Salem's sixth
cooperative. Four of the other five
1 are producer co-ops, the fifth, the
Farmers Union store, is operated
by a consumer organization.'
The new market is designed as
' a clearing house for fresh .fruits,
vegetables, poultry, eggs, rabbits,
, flowers, nuts and related commo-
dities. It will be operated in con
formity with the Rockdale co
operative principle, which means
profit sharing rather than price
cutting, officers of the organization
have announced.
Aspecial effort will be made
to catalog supplies suitable for the
community cannery service so that
supplies may be brought in fresh
at the time- consumers can get
service at the cannery. i .
' Shoppers at the market will not
be required to hold memberships,
although these will be available
to all, and the members will share
in any benefits,! under articles of
incorporation filed under Oregon's
cooperative laws, i
Wheat Market
Closes Firm
CHICAGO, July lQ.-(iP)-The
demand for wheat futures today
more than offset hedging sales,
and the market was firm at the
, close of . a session during which
'.. prices had fluctuated within a
narrow range.
! ; ' Some commission - house ; buy
ing was attributed to orders from
1 milling interests-and to short cov
ering. The relatively small vol
ume of hedges indicated, traders
' said,1 that producers, were with
! holding new crop wheat from the
J market in the hope prices even
l tually will be higher.
At Kansas City wheat had a
;, firm undertone,: apparently re
suiting from the possibility move
' ment of the new t crop will be
slowed by heavy rains and by a
shortage of labor at terminal ele
' vators. ';. ,. .' .
j Confirmation thai the Com-
modity Credit corporation would
r continue to buy cash wheat on
i the basis of six cents over the old
' loan rate of 85 per cent of parity
k but one cent below -.the new 90
per cent rate was -; regarded by
some brokers as an attempt to
persuade farmers r to keep the
grain on the , farm. An allowance
of seven cents a bushel is paid
for farm storage.
At the close wheat was V low
er to higher than- Saturday's
finish, July $1.58." Oats were
- is lower to higher, July. 11 .
Rye was i to l'i, July $1.13
,i. Barley was td higher,
July $1.26. v: i
