Cattle ami corn are aee-saw factors In (he market of 1924. The pant three feeding season, beginning with the year 1921-1922, have wiltun comfortaole profits for the cattle feeders, the last half of each year registering a huge number of cattle on corn-belt pastures. This year, howevtr, with corn hl;'h and soiree, fewer feeder rattle vere bought. What diffeienco will this make to the cattle market? The western and suutliwea'ern cattle industry has been having an xtraordinarily hard time liiiu year, for prices on feeder cattle, as ell as the graxH-flnishid product, have hen so low that little but letw has accrued to the ranenmen. August to November months during which the cattlemen usually enter the market and when the 1'iices for feeder cattle indicate the relative prosperity of the cattle gruwers recorded very low prices for western kine again In 1924. With corn advancing from a low point in June, cattle-flnlshing lias not offered an attractive Investment. Receipts for 194 have been heavy enough to compare favorably with those of the past few ytars. although the supply for the last two or three months wan .aigely of medium and heavy-weight cattle, commanding distinctly iib-api oin ting prices. Kat yearlings have been scarce and have Lrought very high prices. The high price of corn and the disappointing prices on Inter mediate grades of cattle have resulted in a much smaller movement of feeders to the corn belt during 194. From July 1 to December 1 this movement was considerably less than at the moving p rlod during the pawl two years, December 1 showing 14 por cent less in cleen corn bc.t btateu and 8 pei cent lesa In western and Pacific to:-st slates. Not enly has the movement b.?en much smaller, but In addition a great many of the feeder call lo have been "warmed up" and rushed back to market without proper flushing. Liquidation was the oul slamling tiend in tho cattle mark-t at the clos of 1924 What will be the result of this situation for the year 1925? Will tho ecrmderably higher cost of corn trend to narrow the margin of profit? In 19.'5, with corn higher and scarce, the cattle p-lce will ntu.oul.tedly be higher, but will they cover the market prices? The new yeiir opens upon a doubtful answer.

BEARCAT BABES PLAY TONIGHT THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON HELD FAILURE SEEK SUBSTITUTE Rosebarg, Jan. 7 At a meeting of the raw product committee of the Hoseburtf chamber of Com merce today, steps were taken to investigate and determine the amount ot damage done to the broccoli crop by the recent extreme cold weather. The crop waa bad ly hurt, accordniK to all indlca lions, and the chamber of com merce Is taking up with agricul tural expert the matter of star. iiiK crops that will take the place of broccoli, and retrieve the losses which broccoli growers ore cer tain to experience. An effort will probably be made to establish the lettuce industry on a commercial basis, as broccoli land 1a suitable for lettuce growing and experi ments have siiown that a crop can be produced at a most advantage ous time for the market. Celery Is also proposed aa a crop to take the place of broccoli this season. The chamber of commerce will probably take steps lo aid the growers In getting their crops In. STATElPllE TIRES OF DOING Persons attending a meeting of the slate board of control yester day witnessed the unique spectacle ot a state employe pleading for something to do. This was J. K. Myers of Port land, field agent ot the sUte school for adult blind, of which he was formerly superintendent. "Since October 11,'- Bald Myers. "I have had nothing to do but sit in my apartment and get my pay o( 20 a month. I don't thiuk this is fair to the state. It isn't fair to me. I am fossilizing." Myers deplored the lack of har mony in the Institution, Intlma! Ing that matters are not harmoni ous between him and Mrs. It, U. Uooiiin, acting superintendent of the school. Myers said he had asked her (or Instructions but had never gotten anywhere with his request i. Mrs. (loodin eald the institution does not need a field agent and that there Is nothing for Mr. Myers to do. He can't be given a place on the Instruction staff of the school, she said, without dis placing another blind man. State Treasurer Kay said that if there is nothing for Myers to do he was in (avor of abolishing the office. Governor Pierce gave Myers credit (or creating tho sen timent that resulted in the estab lishment o( tho Institution, term ing the school Myers' monument, and said he could lot vote to re move Myers. On motion of Kay the question was deferred. Vlck brothers, local Overland dealers, have just received notifi cation (rom the Overland (actory of a drastic price reduction In the Overland line of automobiles. The reduction amounts to from (35 to J 1 36 on the models affected. The largest drop Is on the steel body sedan which takes a slash of $135. This brings the sedan price to within $225 ot the open models and should be a volume seller this season. The coupe sedan price remains the same as (nrmerly. as this mod el took a great reduction a lew weeks ago. Vlck brothers are delighted with this reduction as It gives them better values than ever be (ore. EDUCATION PROPOSED UPON COOPFRATION Washington, Jan. 7 Ilecommen il.it ion that the National Council of farmers Coopera tivo associa tions undertake development of a national system of education on the cooperative movement was made in an address nreoared for today's new ion of the organiza tion's convention here by Welt on eieei, secretary. Mr. I'eteet urgd an educational movement that would reach 'down through national, state and hxal leaders ta farmer members of co operative and to the general puh- iif aavocaieii appointment 01 a committee to consider the entire subject and report to the national I'nuncil at tomorrow s business ses tiion. Assort In pr that Inefficient man agement wafl often a result of fail ure of directors to understand the rudiments of sound business 'rac- tlce and Iniblllty to pick real busi ness executive for cooperative units, Mr. I'eteet suggested as a remedy a yn'e iu of self educa tion In corporative marketing by mu lor American runners. FRUIT INVESTIGATIONS DISCUSSED BY CANNERS Portland, Jan. 7 Horticultural Invei-tttruions in Washington and Oregon formed th mi Meets of talks today before th eleventh an nual convention of th Northwest fanners association by K. C. John son of the st,te coll.-'irf of Wash ington and J. T. Jardlne, Oregon Agricultural coiiefce. Dr. r . r . KttZKerald, manager of the Am erican Can company laboratory at Chicago, Is to speak thui afternoon on proper use of contntno-s for dlf ferent products. This morning's session was devoted, to considera OVERLAND CUTS PRICE ON AUTOS tion oc cunniuv of trss fruit. PRUNE GROWERS IN CALIFORNIA HOLD FOR RISE prunes are very flr.nly held and such California growers outside of the arttjeiatbtn as have prunes un sold are particularly firm anil they are not selling at the moment says the Cilifornia Fruit News. There is a rattier general anticipation of an advancing market on the part of the California prune association or at least It Is logical to expect such following the change in man agement, from the general under standing of tho recent policy dis agreements between the officers of the association. Commercial pack ers iniicate this week an advance of hie tri 90-100.1. This is a move ment in the same g-MieralMlrection that has been going on for some lime. J n the Pacific Northwest prunes have been somewhat quiet recent ly, following the big export move ment earlier In the fall, and there Is some little disposition to shade pi ices on 40s. - This seems more, however. In the naturo of an occa sional effort to move a block of goods than a real market Indica tion. General Manager Newhouse of the North Pacific Co-operative Prune Kxchange of Portland, In passing through New York recent ly on his way to Kurope, where he will spend several months In the interests of the exchange's prune binliiettfl in the various markets there, made the statement that out of 1:1,000,000 pounds of Oregon prunes of the last crop that his exchange had to haudl?, 8,000,01)0 pounds have been sold, of which 85 per cent have gone to foreign markets. This, with a similar condition among other prune fac tors In the Pacific Northwest, leaves a remarkibly small qan tlty of prunes un.vld there for the time of year in fact it is said, less than existed in midsummer last year. It seems the general Idea that most markets, both in this country and Europe, will be Interested in early shipments of dried fruits soon after the turn of the year, which, obviously, will keep our markets steady to firm. FIRST OF TIILE SERIES, 21 10 20 The L'uion Oil five won over tiie AndeYrfou fc Brown team on the armory Hour last night in the first game of a three-game series to de cide the commercial league cham pionship.

Frank Brown and Gregg were the stare for the losers, while Greee aud Uofls played stellar ball for the winners, making most of- their points. The Anaerson & Brawn team will be under a handicap as they huve lost the services of one of their best players. The second game will be played at the armory tonight at 8 o clock.
