PORTLAND (UP) Season's,
first hothouse radishes at the ;
Eastside Farmers market sold at
80 cents a dozen today: higher .
lettuce prices were quoted during
wholesale produce trading.
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
