Stock Leaders
Give Ground
NEW YORK, Aug. 20 - (Jf)
Stock market leaders generally
continued to give ground today
for the third successive session al
though exceptions were plentiful
and dealings negligible.
Most brokerage clients held
aloof or trimmed accounts be
cause of persistent doubts regard
ing domestic and foreign economic
problems, together with fears that
the current spiral of living costs
would eventually result in a
-bust."
Transfers of 600,000 shares
equaled those of Tuesday.
The Associated Press 60-stock
average was off .4 of a point at
65 J, wides slip since Aug. 11.

Recent sales of purebred llve-j
stock include five registered
Shorthorn cows bought by Bob
Seaman -from Ed Reid of Clarks.
Seaman farms in the Marquam
district and has since he can re
remember, taking time out only
for high school at Silverton and
college at Oregon StaU.
He has been doing some ex
perimenting with lotus cornicu
latus as pasture. He planted from
a lot of seed obtained from New
York state through the county
agent's office in 1942. This failed
to make stand and the field was
plowed up and eventually planted
to ryegrass and sub-clover after
which lotus plants began to appear
in every portion of the field.
These plants have had vigorous
competition but spread has been
general and Seaman, a former
Oregon Stater, thinks that corni
culatuS is the finest legume he has
ever seen. He expects to plant at
least five additional . acres next
spring if seed of a recommended
variety can be had.
Despite agreage increases, it now
appears that alta fescue seed will
be greatly in demand again this
fall. Prices are starting somewhat
lower than last year but members
of Oregon Seed Growers, headed
by Walter Hardy of Molalla point
out that prices which are out of
line, serve to encourage seed pro
duction in other states where we
now find a market for pasture
purposes only. Hardy announces
that the association will start re
tailing two grades 98 per cent pur
ity sub-clover and alta fescue at
60 cents.
Jim Draper, Arabian breeder of
Richmond, California, is making a
thorough study of Homer Daven
port, and not too long ago visited

horses. Draper is building a li
brary of everything that gives in
formation on the horse.

terial decreases in interstate tele

during the past 20 years as com
pared with reductions In intra

ager for the Oregon area. Edgar

Particular reference was mado
by Miss Rushing to rate schoduio
provided by PT&T showing that
on January 1, 1926, the long dis
tance rate (three minutes) from
Portland to i Ner York City was
$15.80. This was reduced to $7.25
in 1936 and to $2.50 in 1946. Tho
schedule showed cortespondirg
reduced long distance tolls be
tween Portland and other out-of-

Miss Rushing asked Tellwright "
why there had been substantial
reductions in interstate telephono
rates and not in intrastate charges.

interstate traffic there had boon
revisions in the Oregon intraitato
