The United States population gain in the past eight years is more than a third greater than the entire population of Can- 'da. TWO facWlie behind the low price you pay for gas oline: oil companies work constantly through re search to improve products and keep prices low, and they compete intensely for your patronage. That's why Standard opened the West's first petroleum research laboratory 32 years ago and invests about $6 million annually in research today. ' Chicago Grain CHICAGO m Most grains sold off after an early price bulge on the board of trade Wednesday but wheat ended higher on a last min ute buying flurry. Soybeans and wheat attracted the most early buying.' Wheat was bought on prospects of export busi ness and reports of dust in the air in the Texas Panhandle. Later, the Weather Bureau noted recent moisture had improved prospects in parts of the great plains. Buying in soybeans again was based in part on the strength of soybean meal which scooted up to a new 1-64 high at $83.00 to $85.50 a ton. However, profit taking got the better of this market. Feed grains were reluctant to forgo ahead on the early bulge and they retreated most readily when the market sold off. Wheat closed ! h i e h e r. i March '..16-, corn lower to higher, March 1.51, oats H- lower, March 75-75Vt, rye V4 to 1 cent lower, March 1.17, soybeans lower to lVi higher, March 3.36 V4-Vi, and laid 2 cents lower to 10 cents a hundred pounds higher, March 16.92.
