In the Portland trade No. 1 onions today are firmly held at $3.75 a cental. It coats on the average 10c a cental to bring onions from the coun try to the city, therefore the whole sale trade Is actually selling sup pi lea at 35c a cental below what the same quality stuff could be purchased from the country at thla time.
