WILLIAMS DIES IN PORTLAND WELL KNOWN MOUNT PLEAS ANT RESIDENT EXPIRES AFTER OPERATION CAME TO THIS COUNTY IN 1874 Deceased Rtcently Raturnad Prom Visit To Son In Waahlng ton Deed Of Kind nee Recalled Mra. Cbestlna, C. William, widow of tbe late Cbarlea C. Williams, of Oregon City, died In Portland at the St. Vincent's Hospital Friday morn ing following an operation. Mrs. Wil liams bad been a sufferer for several months, and waa taken to the hospit al Thursday. Mrs. Williams was well known In Oergon City and Mount Pleasant, hav ing been a resident of Mount Pleas ant alnce 1874. Sbe bad many friends smong the old and young, being of a kindly disposition, and always ready to give a helping band In trouble or in Illness.

SHEEP WET HAS MUCH EASIER TONE There was only a limited run of livestock in Portland Thursday and conditions were substantially the same ad the day before. No sheep arrived but tome carried were sold during the morning. These consisted of inferior yearling that av eraged 81 pounds. The aale was made at $3.50. There waa an easier situation In the sheep trade generally throughout the country. While there was little change In prices, trade conditions were not nearly so good. The press of offerings at points eaat of the rock- lea is having ita effect Good runs were shown at all -points except Kan sas City and the showing there was quite (air. Chicago had a weak tone (or sheep during the morning with 15,000 head offered. Kan ana City sheep were down S to 10c (or the day even though the run reached a total of 3,000 head. The trade's wants seem to be well sup plied. BLIGHT MENACING VALLEY POTATOES Blight baa struck tbe potato crop of western Oregon and serious dam age ia threatened. As a result ot con tinued unseasonable weather, vines are showing decay and this la likely to affect tbe output to a serious ex tent Sample o( potatoes received here from varlou aectlon of the Willam ette valley show blight The stock baa black spots all through the cen ter, rendering them unmarketable. The extent ot the damage by blight will naturally be influenced by the amount of rainfall that la shown with in the next two weeks, but already the size of the marketable yield haa been cut down. Some ot these blight reports were received 10 daya ago, but no attention waa paid to them, owing to the belief that the damage exisited only in iso lated cases. Since then the reports have spread to all localities in the valley and the general opion prevaila that much loss will be occasioned. Not only will the continued show- era extend the blight, but where the vines are healthy second growth has already started and this will force rought stock upon a market that will be only fair for fancy stock. CALIFORNIA CUTS IN With California freely offering Its rivef potatoes at 60c to 65c per cental f. o. b. shipping points, there is little business available (or the local stock as yet While some ot the local offering show matured quality, the bulk of tbe supplies are still too green and the skins Blip too much for long distance shipping. In a Jobbing way there la only a nominal demand for potatoes. Prices, are low but thla is not what Is Inter fering with tbe demand. Nearby pro ducers continue to peddle their sup plies and as this is the sole business in tbe market at the present time. It takes everything away from the wholesalers. Owing to the aize of the crop this season an effort will Boon be made by the Produce Merchants' association to secure a cut in freight rates to east ern point. Tbe recent government report gave the potato crop ot the United States! a condition of 87.8 per cent compar ed with 62.3 per cent a year ago and a 10 years' average of 84.8 per cent 1U II The week closes with trade In the hop market practically at a standstill and with values, so far as can be as certained In tbe absence ot business, about the aame as at tha opening. At 18 to 20 cents, which Is believed to fairly represent current 1912 crop val ues, the market appears to be steady to atrong, but alnce the weather turn ed wet there baa been little disposi tion to trade either on the buying or or on tbe selling side. latest reports from England have Indicated rather unfavorable crop de velnpments there, and aa a result ot these reports and the present weath er candltlons In the Pacific Northwest buyers for the time are Inclined to hold off on business here, preferring to wait until tbey can be better In formed regarding tbe outlook for tbe English crop and tbe quality of the Oregon output aa well. At the same time thj weather In this state the paat few days ha Induced a meaaure of caution on the part of the growers. For the time they are more or lei out of the market On the whole the Valley hop crop I (till counted safe, the belief being that tbe damage done by tbe ralna last week bas been rather over-estimated. In all cases tbe vines that have gone down will be put np again as quickly aa possible, and In tbe event of clear weather, which la ex pected soon. It will probably be founj that no great barm baa been done. Continued wet weather at thla time of tbe year would of course develop mold and thus work serious damage of the crop. CATTLE MARKET IS L Portland Union Stock Yard Com pany reports as follows: Receipts for the week hsve been: cattle, lht; calves, 17; bogs, 1495; fheep, 4004; horses, bo. In th? limited cuttla offerings lb ere was nothing that would tempt a high it val-j-j tuan applied for the week t-efore. While tbe iteer market be cause of ordinary quality showed no advance, a glimpse t tbe prices paid (or heifers snd cows will give an In dication of the high range ot prices. Tbe hog market showed an advance of 15 cenia. Tbe extraordinary high lice ot pi ices aa applied to tbe bog market a compared with what the raiser of tbe middle states secures for his efforts in swine production has brought about an Increase In the pro- duction in the Pacific Northwest that shows In the increased receipts from local territory. Tbe supply is noth ing like what it should be and too mnch stress cannot be. laid on the op portunities for money making that exists In raising hogs for market IN VALLEY SOON For the week to date the weather has been exactly what the maturing bop crop required, and aa a result the growers who hist week were a little apprehensive regarding the safety of tbe crop now take a hopeful view ot the situation. Continued sunshine is of course needed to fully develop the hops and keep them la a clean and healthy condition ,and weather indica tions appear to be favorable. Late re ports (rom a number o( Valley points say the crop Is ripening rapidly, and where the vines were given proper care the prospect is (or a crop of very good quality. Growers say that the ralna last week came at a time when they were needed to stimulate hop growth and increase the weight of the crop, and In most of the Valley yards conditlona now are about as near ideal aa they well could be. It is of course true that in some fields, where the growers neglected spraying, the rains gave the vermin a further chance at the crop, and in such yards some mold Is to be expected. It Is not believed, however that the extent of the damage will be such as materially to lower the qual ity average for the state's crop. In the event of continued favorable weather the chances are that picking in some sections will start within a (ew days, (or the crop now Is (ast nearing maturity. Harvesting opera tions, however, will probably not be generally under way (or a week or 10 days. The market (or the time remains quiet but rather firm in tone, and the indications are that not much in the way of business will be done In the Oregon market until the trade haa a fairly clear line on the quality of the coming crop. On the whole the pros pect to favorable, both for the crop and market but dealers assert that there ia still a little uncertainty, and this tends to hold business In check. That values from this time on are more likely to work up than down seems to be the general Impression locally.
