Wheat and Corn
Prices Are Lower
Cottonseed and Linseed Meal Were
Steady During the Week
Just Closed.
A turn down in the grain market
and Increased offerings of wheat
feeds caused an easier market for
feedstuffs during the week ending
Aug. 31, states the Weekly Feed Mar
ket Review of the United States bu
reau of agricultural economics. Corn
prices have declined around five cents
per bushel, largely because of more
favorable weather in the corn belt
mm were iuu easier in sympai iiy terrupted the reunion for a short in-
with corn. Buyers of feeds became terval observed that mote than pass
more cautious and altho there wasjing importance was attached to the
no large surplus of feed for immed- j Hallowe'en episode which resulted in
late shipment, prices of wheat feeds : tne suspension of both the boys. It
and corn feed made substantial de- Ueemed as tho that might have been
cMnes at most markets. Pastures and the tie wni(h has remained imperv
ranges continued mainly fh good tc ; , to nsir, vears
excellent condition, altho they need
rain over much of the Mississippi val
ley and in the Pacific northwest. De
mand for feed on the Pacific coast
was irregular with dealers buying
cautiously at Los Angeles, altho feeds
were in brisk demand at San Fran
cisco. Wheat feeds: Wheat feeds mad
general declines. Production. I-
on floor output at centers, showed
further increase and was largest for
the season with anespecial gain not
ed in the northwest. Both bran, and
the heavier feeds met a dull market.
Offerings increased at Buffalo but
most of the selling pressure there
seemed to be from the outside a?
local mills were still about two week?
behind on shipping instructions. De
mand slackened at central western
markets and trading fell off in the
northwest where the jobbers were
chiefly concerned with lfiling past
due contracts. Demand was quiet in
the southwest, where the decline in
wheat prices had stimulated flour
buying and mills were anxious for
business altho they were reluctant tc
accept less than $2C.50 for bran.
Shorts were harder to sell than bran
at Kansas City with buyers taking
for immediate needs only.
Cotton seed meal: Cotton seed
meal ruled unchanged to higher, with
the market sensitive to reports of
crop conditions. Consuming demand
seemed only moderately active at thf
principal distributing points, and
trade reports indicated that export
demand was slackening at current
levels.
Linseed meal: Linseed meal heir"
practically steady. Demand, both ex
port and domestic was of fair volume
at Buffalo, where offerings were fair
ly liberal, altho mills were not press
ing sales. Buying at Chicago contin
ued on hand to mouth basis but of
ferings were firmly held. Demanc
slackened at Minneapolis with the
principal interest in meal for ship
ment October-November.
Gluten feed: Gluten feed turned
easier with the weakness on corn
Quotations at Philadelphia were
nominal but prices were practically
lower at Buffalo where hesellcrf
were more anxious to make sales.
Manufacturers were offering only for
future shipment and the market was
lominated by the resellers of offer
ings. At Chicago Gluten feed and
meal were movir.g readily and the
local manufacturer was rationing ou'
the current output.
Hominy Feed: Hominy feed was
irregularly lower. Almost none was
offered at Philadelphia but offering;
were more plentiful at Buffalo where
yellow feed was being sold at $1 per
ton discount under white feed. Buy
fell off at Chicago where prices were
quotably unchanged ami quotation:
held practically stead at Omaha, in
spite of lower corn prices.
Alfalfa Meal: Alfalfa meal met a
more active demand and prices made
a fraction al advance at Kansas City.
Mills were not pressing sales at Chi
cago and the market at Omaha ruled
firm, because of smaller supplies.
Kansas City dealers reported a good
inquiry for green meal.
GIANTS COME FAST IN
RACE FOR THE PENNANT
New York, Aug. 30. With the
Pirates slicing to the right, the Car
dinals hooking to the left and the
Cubs floundering in a sand trap, the
Giant3 are thundering down the Na
tional league fairway today in a drive
that threatens to land them in first
place. The slipping Bruins were
flattened twice by the Giant jugger
naut yesterday, leaving them onl'
two and one-half games in front of
the Cardinals and Pirates, who are
tied for tecond place.
With New York only one game
behind St. Louis and Pittsburgh, the
race is becoming closer than last
season's nightmare. Each of the three
leaders has lest 49 games, which
may give the Cardinals and Tirate a
chance to make up lost ground later
on.
Thirty thousand rabid fans saw the
Giants scorch the Cubs twice, S to 7

Cause of Reunion
Judge Day of Supreme Court on Visit
to Portland, Ore., Finds Friend
He Knew in Iowa School
From the Portland Oregonian of
Aug. 22: One year of college friend
ship in a little Congregational school
in Iowa forty-nine years ago has
stretched itself out Into a life-long
affair for George A. Day, justice of
the Nebraska supreme court, and for
Ira E. Williams, whose home is in
Portland. These men, who last met
about twenty-five years ago in Oma
ha, found each other in Portland yes-
I terday thru the medium of an article
in The Oregonian. They spent the
day visiting.
It may have been the comraleship
of the Greek-letter debating society
to which Judge Day and Mr. Williams
belonged when they were freshmen
which welded their friendship. But a
J rt,I)0rtej from the Oregonian who in
"I'll suppress the details if you
will, George," Mr. Williams hasten
ed to say, in spit? of the twinkle in
his eye. "All-right." agreed the
judge. "But we were both reinstated
in good standing." ,
Wives Are Old Friends.
Mrs. Day and Mrs. Williams, al
tho they were not college mates, have
participated in the occasional re
unions their husbands have enjoyed.
They chatted yesterday on the front
porch at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
M. F. Tyler, East Flanders
street, wife re the meeting was ar
ranged. Mr. Tyler and Mrs. Day are
cousins, and the visitors have spent
much of their time at the Tyler resi
dence during their time here.
The boys, who became school
ehums, had not met until theyV en
tend Tabor college. Tabor, la., altho
their homes were only twenty-four
miles apart. Judge Day lived in Sid
ney and Mr. Williams at Glenwood.
"The last time we met, I guess,
war when Williams arranged for a
Fourth of July celebration at Beem
er. Neb.," Judge Day related. "He
had to find a speaker, so lie called on
me, and I went and took with me
Senator Jcseph Millard, our Unitec
States senator. We gave them a good
performance."
Mr. and Mrs. Williams will enter
tain Judge and Mrs. Day today with s
trip around Mount Hood loop. This
war. arranged yesterday.
"I am pleased with the business en
terprises and particularly the ship
ping I am finding out here in Oregon
and Washington." said Judge Day
who is making his first visit in this
section. "We think we send out a
good deal of corn and wheat where T
come from, but I guess one of these
big shipments would just about take
all we could raise." :
Member of Supreme Court.
Judge Day was judge of the dis
trict court in Omaha for twenty-eight
years and for eight years has been
a member of the supreme court of
Nebraska.
Mr. and Mrs. Williams came tc
Oregon in 1912. Tliey lived for ?
time in Hood River and in Monroe
and later went to Edmonds. Wash
In all of these places, as well as in
the east, Mr. Williams has been in
the banking business. He is now en
gaged in raising chickens on his plot
of land in Portland.
Mr. Williams read in The Oregon
ian an account cf the fact that his
old college friend was ni the city Be
cause the two had had no communi
cation since Mr. Williams moved from
Edmonds, Wash., the Portland man
felt that Judge Day would not look
for him here. An account of this sit
uation, which appeared in the Sun
day edition of The Oregonian, was
read early yesterday by Judge Day.
who at once communicated with his
friend and arranged a meeting.
