A tail si) In was apparent this morning us retail dealers held off and stocks along the street be gan to accumulate. Buyers will not take hold at the 45 cents level and soma of them frankly admit that they cannot pay over 40 cents and hope to imtke a profit. Ho far the butchers have been buying In a meager way, ordering Just enough birds for dis play or to fill rt'Kulur orders. The surplus on the street Is not largo enough to bo alarming If the buyers would take hold, but with the trade holding off and re fusing to pay the present levels, the market is bound to slump. A few select birds In small lots brought 45 cents during the early trade tortuy but it wus impossible to get over 42 to 43 cents for quan tlty lots. Other lines of dressed poultry with the exception of geese, moved out well and prices were fully main tained. Dressed geese are plentiful and the demand slow. The market to weuk.

PURCHASE OF PARK SITE IS CONTESTED (CoMmuetl lrom Page One) rcHoluiioy. For the park committee Ahl mail Gin hen horat reported that .Mr. Ky had agreed to sell the city tho pa rk for $ U 5 0 0, ins ten d of $7i8ii.ltt, the orlRlnal price naked. I la recommended that the council vote to buy It, the terms to be fix ed later. Daney ami Purvlne Immediately objected to nny binding action be ing taken before terms -were defi nitely fixed. gt "Air. Kay will agree to any ri-Konnhle- terms,' said Koseliraugh. "I think he will," answered Dancy, 'but I object to tieing the city up in this way.'' "Why qitration n man of Mr. Kay's standing? This thing hnw been hanging fire rver ednce I can remember,' said Alderman Will lams. "For heaven's sake let's gel It settled." Ptirvine moved that there be In serted In the resolution the words "if reasonable terms can be made. A recess ensued during which there was a wrangle over the wording and the miyor and Itose- braugu were heard in a b tor my flst-to. "That will tic the city up?" FOR SUDDEN SLUMP of the Day COUNTESV 1CATAOVO. nrotc-sted the mayor. "OE course it will. That's juet what wo want to do hind our selves' shouted liosebraugh frank iy. "I insist liiat something go in there to show whore the money is coming from," replied Mayor Giesy, hanging his desk. The council was railed to order ag;:in and Patton moved that the roport he tabled. This motion got nowhere. Grabenlioi'st deplored the fao.t that the council was aain going to fail to inform Kay as to its in tent ions. "He could plat tho ground and sell it for a great deal moro than he asks the city for Jt," said urabcnhoi'st. . Tho mayor said he couldn't sec much reason for such sudden hanlr inasnuith ns the committee hadn't' even tallied with Kay about H up to 1 o'clock in the afternoon. This brought Itoeebraugh to hta; feet in rage. "Your statement that Hie com mittee tlid not see Mr. Kay prior to 1 o'clock today is not true," he shouted, "and you know It Is not true. You don't know what you are talking about." "I'm only toll you what Mr. Kay Bald," interrupted tho mayor. "I don't cavo what he told you," replied llosebratigh, "I am saying for the committee that we saw him hofore." Alderman Galloway tried to pour iil on the troubled waters by opin ing that the members were hag gling over a very small matter. "Maybe It is n email mutter," commented Dancy. "Uut it is a matter of principle." Williams jumped to hifl feet. "We pave streets," he said, "when wo don't know whether the property owners nro going to pay for it from the center of the block or from the alloy. V,i leave 17th street, open, a chasm nnd a holl holo from end to etui. Yet we oomo luM-o and haggle over $(5500. In the name of God let's net." Willanifl shouted his speech at the top of his voice and he has some voice, It anyone watiH to kn.nv. Patton'r, moiion to table went tc vole and lost.

Kstohllahrd IS rears in Sa lem, oreiron rhone SM Pi THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON LOCAL HEIFER RUNNER UP FDR F W. Durbin. owner of Lady Iris Homestead DeKol, junior year ling Holsteln-Friesan heifer, gave Pabst American Beauty, winner oi the World All-American in that class for 1925, a close run for her money, according to the last Iksuc of the Holstein-Frlesan World which Is just announcing results on the All-American for this year. In commenting on the contest for the junior yearling "heifer the magazine says: The problem was easy in the junior yearling class with Pubst American Beauty receiving tho un animous vote of the committee. Fhls heifer has gone through a strenuous show season undefeated for Junior championship honors and with three grand champions at major fairs. Nothing but a sen sational animal could win the jun ior yearling class this year how ever, ns there were two other heif ers out good enough to receive hon orahlo mention alongside Jr'aost American Beauty. These were Lady Iris Homestead De Kol .nn Ore gon heifer, and Boiinheur Abbe- kerk Posch 2nd or the Province of Quebec. There probably never has been a year when three such heifers came out in a single class. Unfortunately they never met in a show ring." The judges on the All-American were W. S. Moscrlp, who judged at the National Dairy show and Pa cific International; Axel Hansen who Judged the bfg eastern states exposition nnd John L. Smith who judged at Waterloo, Iowa. Tho same magazine nlso contains a plctUi-C of Sir Walker Inlta Home stead, which took first prize at the Oregon Stnte fair, sgod bull, sen ior nnd grand champion. Oregon took two places In the Ail-American contest.
