Stocks Advance
Irregularly
In Light Trading
New York, Aug. 11 Wl
Stocks whipped up a little re
covery interest in today's mar
ket without the benefit of. much
outstanding bullish news.
Transfers wore around 250,
000 shares.
Bonds steadied and major
commodities, after an early de
line on the government's big
crop figures, regained their equi
librium. Among stocks edging into new
high ground for the year were
Schenlev. National Distillers
and Purity Bakeries. In front
the greater part of tho time woro
DuPont, American Can, iiec.
trip. Auto-Lite. Allied Chemical
U.S. Steel, Santa Fe, American
Telephone, Standard Oil of Ind.,
Sears Roebuck. Dow Chemical,
Eastman Kodak, U.S. Rubber
common and preferred, Warner
Bros., Paramount, pepsi-uoia,
Chrysler, American Airlines and
TEnsr.prn Air Lines.
Occasional backwardness was
displayed by Woolworth, J. C.
Penney, Pullman, International
Nickel and Union Carbide.
Sales were 258,610 shares
neainst 200.041 vestcrdav. On
the New York curb exchange
turnover was 46,B3U snares
against 42,205 yesterday. .'
Preliminary closing v Dow
Jones averages were: industrial,
150.43, up 0.52; rail, 25.60, up
0.22; utility, 11.43, up 0.08; 65
stocks, 35.13, up 0.20.
Wheat Futures
Given Strength
Chicago, Aug. 11 (U.R) Belief
among traders that wheat pro
ducers would take advantage of
federal loan levels offset the
government's bearish crop esti
mates and gave strength to
wheat futures on the board of
trade today.
Wheat closed with net gains
of Vi to cent a bushel, corn
was unchanged to up Vi cent,
oats unchanged to off Vt, rye
up 1 to 'A, and soybeans up
Vb to Vt.
Wheat futures advanced by
fractions after an easy opening.
Many traders swung to the buy
ing side under growing senti
ment that tho spring wheat
movement would be marketed
in the same manner as the win
ter crop . . . with heavy im
poundlngs under the federal
loan program,
Trading quieted down late in
the session with a conspicuous
absence of follow-up demand
and selling pressure, as traders
withdrew pending the extent of
future offerings of spring wheal.
Inactivity became more pre
valent in the corn pit after
leading commission houses of
fered sizeable quantities of Sep
tember corn around 86 cents a
bushel which woro readily ab
sorbed mainly by locals.
Commission house and local
buying helped firm tho oats
market. Receipts continued
light.
Rye met good support on the
decline into new low ground,
and the market firmed in sym
pathy with the rally of wheat,
Shanging operations took place
from September to deferred
contracts.
Soybean futures held steady in
light dealings.

Hop Yield to
Be Larger than
First Estimated
With a top hop picking wage
of $3 a hundred pounds for Ore
gon' being offered' in the Grants
Pass area, the agriculture de
partment at Washington, D. C,
Monday predicted a hop yield
larger than was indicated in its
July 1 survey, due to exception
ally favorable growing weather.
A harvest' of 39,154,000
pounds, on basis of August 1
conditions, was predicted, This
was short of last year's yield of
40,380,000 pounds, but greater
than the ten-year average (1930
40) of 34,784,000 pounds.
Indicated 1942 yield in Wash
ington was 13,984,000 pounds
(1941 crop, 13,320,000 pounds);
Oregon, 13,860,000 pounds (1941
crop, 16,800,000 pounds); Calif
ornia, 11,310,000 pounds (1941
crop, 10,260,000 pounds.)
The Grants Pass picking price
of $3, higher than that announc
ed in any other large Oregon
district, was revealed by the
United States employment ser
vice as picking began in three
yards.
The fall harvest will be in full
swing by August 21. Reports
from Willamette valley points
indicated a picking price of at
least $2.50 per hundred pounds.
Growers forecast a price of
36 cents a pound for cured hops
on the average, as compared with
last year's price of 27 14 cents.
Winter Peas
Being Harvested
Pendleton, Aug. 11 W) With
more than a carload of Austrian
winter peas being cleaned and
sacked here daily, shipments of
winter legume seed to the south
ern states are in full swing from
Umatilla county.
Used by southern farmers to
replace nitrates going into muni
tions, more than 2,000 carloads
of the nitrogen producing crop
will be shipped this year from
Oregon, the nation's principal
source of supply.
Peas of this variety wore pro
duced in Umatilla county on a
large scale for the first time this
year, with approximately 9,000
acres being harvested, an in
crease of 8,700 acres over last
year. Yields have averaged a ton
an acre and have been of high
quality.
Greatly expanded production
is anticipated next year by A. R.
Coppock, chairman of the county
AAA committee, who says many
Umatilla county farmers plan to
divert acreage from wheat to
winter field peas in compliance
with Secretary of Agriculture
Wickard's call for underplanting
of wheat allotments.

Sitting up in bed with her dolls,
four-year-old Sharon Bell

from Sharon's throat a tiny

Dried Fruit Crop
Frozen for Army
Washington, Aug. 11 VP) The
government today froze the en
tire 1942 production of dried
apples, apricots, peaches, pears,
prunes, and grapes (raisins) in
the hands of packers, to make
them available for the army,
navy and lend-lease shipment.
The freeze order issued by
the war production board ap
plied also to the carryover from
the 1941 crop.
Supplies not purchased by
the government will be made
available for civilians, WPB
said. In addition, the entire
1942 crop of Muscat, Sultana,
and Thompson Seedless grades
was ordered diverted into the
production of raisins. These
California varieties are the prin
cipal ones from which raisins
are made, and none of them may
be used for wine, or shipment
as fresh fruit, uses which nor
mally consume a large portion
of the crop,
"Estimated military and lend-
lease requirements for some
fruits equal or exceed indicated
1942 production," WPB's an
nouncement said. "Require
ments. Tho entire crop of raisin
variety grapes in California is
being diverted into raisins to
assure a sufficient -supply for
the armed forces and some
stocks for civilians."

Peach Growers
Warned of Rot
Peach growers who have
prospects of a crop of peaches,
now rapidly reaching maturity,
should be an the alert for the
spread of brown rot disease,
which is very prevalent this
year, warns Robert E. Rieder,
county agricultural agent.
"It looks like peaches will be
worth protecting with sprays or
dusts this year in spite of the
reported light crops in a great
many orchards," Rieder said.
The sulphur dust applied at
the rate of about pound per
tree will be very effective in
checking brown rot disease on
the ripening fruit. It should be
remembered, however, that a
super-fine dusting sulphur
should be used, one which will
pass a 325 mesh screen is .ad
visable. Some growers prefer
ot spray and satisfactory con
trol can be secured by the use
of a wettable sulphur spray ap
plied at the rate of about 6
pounds to 100 gallons of water.
Growers are finding it pro
fitable to dust or spray as often
as ten-day intervals between
now and harvest time and while
sulphur is not very effective as
a killing material for the 12
spottcd cucumber beetle, which
is causing considerable damage
to ripening fruit, it does, how
ever, tend to check the beetle
attacks on the fruit.
Dehydrated
Beef Produced
Chicago, Aug. 11 U.R Swift
and Co. announced today it was
working on the first federal
contract for production of a new
process dehydrated beef for
shipment abroad that will en
able one vessel to carry the
equivalent of 10 World War I
shiploads of fresh meat.
L. W. Bermond, manager of
the Chicago meat packing plant
of Swift and Co., said the gov-
ernment had awarded his firm a
contract for 60,000 pounds of
dehydrated beef produced by a
continuous controlled - temper
ature process. . .
Dehydration and compressed
packaging of the product saves
up to 90 per cent of 'the ship
cargo space formerly used to
carry the refrigerated fresh beef
sides and quarters, Bermond
said.
The process was developed by
H. H. McKee and Swift experts
with the assistance of the U. S.
department of agriculture.

quieter this morning. Addition

Some Indian political lead
ers were working quietly in
hope that the government, at a
round-table conference of all
parties, might make some fur
ther concessions of political
power to Indians and thus knock
the bottom out of nationalist ag
itation.
At Poone, Gandhi was in
