Salem and Portland prices on
holiday eatables can stand a COM
parison. Turkey selling here for
IS and so cents a pound sold in
Portland during the week for 55
cents. Ducks were selling five
cents cheaper here. and geese
were sold at IS cents while In
Portland they were bringing 40.
The local egg market has re-
mained steady throughout the
last two days, the top buying
price being Al In cash and 43 in
trade. There is prospect Of
drop about the middle of next
week. Shippers have had no trou-
BILE In getting eggs at 40 cents.
Stores and markets will be
closed all day Monday and the
housewife who has not purchased
her supplies has until seven
o'clock this evening to buy for
two days.

By suspending Ruth, Bob Meu-

daily turnover was of substantial

Much Of the intermittent sell
