10 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. RAT, EM. OREGON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1934 BUTTER TRADE APPEARS FIRM ALONG COAST Portland, Nov. 26 (LP) Trade in butter appears about steady in Epotfi here although some easiness Is suggested elsewhere. Make con tinues to hold up seasonably liberal. Butterfat is holding steady. There was considerable carryover of torn turkeys in the dressed poul try trade. Local retailers had not yet secured their requirements and were apparently holding off for more favorable prices to them. Wholesalers' cards still offered 20c for young toms and hens for Monday delievery but were not in clined to buy anything on the street above that mark. Prices in genera) to retailers arc perhaps lc lb. lower than last week's finals. There continues a mixture of egg prices here but some interests are beating down values too rapidly. There is good demand here for ducks and geese. All recent re ceipts have been cleaned up with demand for more. Rem il led cranberries offering around (3 quarter barrel box arc hurling the local trade. The won derful stuff from Coos Bay is com parable with eastern quality at least and is finding more favor. Owing to the excellent quality and the rather low price and very i attractive package, a very good de-' mand is ruling for Florida tange rines here. ! While demand appears a trifle quiet, there is no cliange in onion buying prices. Buyers continue to offer $1.50 net to producers here. Potatoes are quiet but as yet un changed in price. Better quality California toma- toes are being offered around $2.25 lug repacked. Another carload of Florida grape fruit Is approaching but demand at the moment is chiefly for Arizona, Which is very low priced. Country kilted meats with the ex ception of beef, shows a steady tone. Walla Walla hothouse cucumbers ere being offered around 95c dozen. Hothouse tomatoes arc firm at the lute advance with supplies short. graInftoes Chicago, Nov. 20 UV) Both whent find corn futures ruled lower today, although No. 1, white corn available for immediate use reached $1.03, a new peak since 19H0. Part of the selling of wheat and also of corn today wtts said to have been based on the advice of an Illi nois market forecaster. On the other hand, there was no evidence of any increase of rural offerings of corn to arrive here. Wheat closed weak, TA-1 under Saturday's finish, May 07 ',4-, com -1!h off, May 85-8(1, oats 14-1 Wi down, and provisions unchanged to 10 cents decline. Chicago, Nov. 26 (VP) Responsive to liverpool wheat quotations higher than expected, grain values here scored advances today. Enlarged welling on price upturns, however, led to quick setbacks. Opening un changed to I'd higher, May 08 00, Chicago wheat went below Sat urday's finish. Corn started 'A off to up, May BG'.i-Tfe, and held near the initial limits.

(IP) A dog and a radio, which the plaintiff seeks to have enjoined, and $2,000 worth of alleged damages to Mrs. Antoinette Centlnis' nerves, prime factors in a Superior Court action here, are causing considerable discussion these days in the neighborhood of 1812 Sixty-seventh avenue. There are the dog lovers and the radio fans who find it difficult to reconcile Mrs. Centini's attitude in going to court about Mrs. Irene Mc Clure's clog, "John Doe," and her radio, "Richard Doe." But, according to Mrs. Centmis action seeking to enjoin both the radio and the dog, "Richard" tor ments the night with thundering rhythms and screeching wails and squawks, and every so often too often, according to Mrs. Centini "John" puts in his nickel's worth of barks and growls. in anotner lawsuit, one soliciting the sympathies of light sleepers. Mrs. Centini asks $2,000 damages for alleged injuries to her health and nerves due to the activities of Richard and John. Superior Court Judge Ogden set a hearing date on the injunction writ and most of the neighborhood expects to attend the session. Continuation of Drunken Drivers From Page One cd west.
