Country offerings were small with the pressure of spring work but i were fully equal to trade requirements with consumers purchasing for ini mediate needs only. The scarcity of high grade hay in some markets helpI ed to move the atrivals of ordinary hay but the limited demand for Ih< ' low grades tell off with warm weatii ci and prices for these grades declined I although top grades held steady. N<improvement in the market for low I grades is to be expected, especially as there is a large amount of inferior hay remaining upon farms which lean be marketed if satisfactory prices I can be secured. I The timothy market averaged | steady on light receipts. The Boston ( market was practically unchanged and ! the best timothy held steady at New York, although the lower grades de elined sl-$2 per ton on slack demand. Quotations were unchanged at Philadelphia. The best timothy was in de’.nand at Pittsburgh but ordinary hay 'was slow sale white low grades were almost unsalable. The Cincinnati market was firmer ’on light receipts. The highest grade timothy was wanted for racing stables but ordinary hay sold only because •of the scarcity of good bay. Toj • grades moved readily in Chicago but the lower grades were draggy. More good timothy could have been sole •to Louisiana and Texas from Kansas •City but ths trade could not use inferior bay. Alfalfa was practically unchanged with weakness in the lower grades offsetting a slightly firmer market for I the best bay. Quotations were unchanged at Omaha and good alfalfa was higher at Kansas City although iow grade and damaged hay was hard to move. Dairy hay was wanted and there was a light shipping trade to the south and southeast but mills and • feeders bought sbaringly. California markets were quiet on prospects of I a good crop ofaalfalfa. The prairie market was dull. l)e---1 nand was light at Chicago and the • Minneapolis and St. Paul market held Isteady on light arrivals. Lighter rcI v’ciptK helped to clear the Omaha market although low grades were not wanted. The stockyards and a small • volume of shipping trade took the of ’ fcrings of good hay at Kansas City with an occasion il car going to local I dealers but the off grades were very slow sale. ’ No. 1 timothy—Boston, $25: New ' York, |25; Pittsburgh, $20.50; Cincin uati, sl9; Chicago, $22: St. Louis. t $21.50; Kansas City. $15.25; Memphis. >22; Denver. $17.50; Atlanta, $24. 1 No. 1 alfalfa—Kansas City. $19.25; ‘•Jmahi. $15.59; Denver, $14.50; Mcnt--1 pili".. $27; Atlanta. $32.

'llk lllM—rr—l—Ll_UJ L Main Street Owns the Oil I NOT LONG AGO, somebody made a play upon words by saying that “Main Street, not Wall Street, now owns the big industries.’’ The observation was more accurate than i its maker supposed. i. * the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) belongs to i nearly 11 times as many stockholders in 1925 as t ’ in 1919. There are at present 49,277 owners of this Company, of whom not one owns as much as i 6% of the whole. 15,264 of these owners are em- • ploycs of the Company. It is the earnest desire of . the Management of this organization that the . number of stockholders in the future will multiply in considerably more than direct ratio to the i growth of the Company, It is to the advantage of the public that ownership s of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) steadily becomes more deeply rooted and more widely I spread among the people as a whole. It is to the advantage of society that customers, i ■ stockholders and employes should cease to be three separate groups with distinct interests in oil matters, and with frequently divergent viewpoints. At the present time, thousands of people are at once patrons and employes of. and investors in, this great Company. This joint interest and ownership are giving a steadily increasing firmness and dependability to the service which this organization renders the public. Much of the efficiency of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana)— much of its smooth functioning, 1 its avoidance of labor difficulties, its freedom to adopt progressive methods —are due to the fact that Main Street owns the Company's oil; Main ; Street refines and distributes this oil, and Main i Street uses the oil products. This organization is 1 essentially democratic. It is financed by the ' people, operated by the people, and patronized by the people. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) in ownership, management, labor and patronage, is an ; integral part of modern American civilization—i its products enter into the very texture of our daily life. When, therefore, we speak of the service of this organization to the public, we are speaking ( of something which is fundamental to society. Especially does this apply to the ten Middle Western States in which this Company operates —and in which it has operated in such a manner ; as to have gained the respect, confidence ana esteem of thirty million people. i Standard Oil Company (/nrfiana) General Office: Standard Oil Building 910 So.
