Try and By BENNETT CERF- A LADY WHO prided herself on her housekeeping was driving behind a truck loaded with newspapers and aaw a bundle of the.papers fall from the speeding vehicle. ''Uttering up the land- cape!" she muttered an grily, stopped short, and put the bundle into the back seat of her own car. ' Continuing on her way, she noticed several other bundles of paper on the roadside and retrieved these, too. Then she caught up with the truck parked outside a diner. She col lared the driver and said, "I have exactly eight bundles of your old pa pers in my car." "In your car!" echoed the driver. "I work for the Journal, lady. I was delivering them"' A famous playwright's wife popped her head into his study to ask, "Jerome, have you stili got a good memory lor laces ?" "Superb," he replied. "What luck," said the wife. "I Juat broke your shaving mirror."

Withholding by NFO Possibly Could Boomerang Washington UPP The Ag riculture Department has in dicated the livestock with holding campaign of the Na tional Farmers Organization to boost farm prices could boomerang and result in low er cash returns. In a review of the livestock and meat situation, the de partment said the holding ac tion could result in prices temporarily lower than if a normal seasonal pattern of sales had been followed. First Comment This was the department's first comment on the NFO's holding action begun early in September at Midwest mar kets. It was prepared shortly before the farm group called a recess in its efforts to in crease prices. The department said the holding action helped to hold down marketing of hogs dur ing September. This is the time of year when hog re ceipts are seasonally low. "The holding action could have some influence on the market later this year," the ! department said. "If market supplies are bunched in Oc tober or November due to marketing of hogs that were withheld in September, the result would be a price tem porarily lower than if a normal seasonal pattern of marketing had been followed. Hog Prices Increase "The magnitude of this ef fect would depend on the ex tent and duration of the hold ing action and the method of terminating it." The department noted that prices of hogs have risen steadily since May. In Ser tember, prices at eight Mid west markets reached the highest level since fall of 1958. Since June, prices have been near or above a year earlier and likely will con tinue for the rest of the year. For the entire year, the de partment said, the average price to producers will be close to the $18.60 per 100 pounds received by farmers in 1961. The generally higher level of hog prices during the last two years, and this summer in particular, are primarily the result of reduced sup plies, the department said.
