OREGON WEEKLY CROP REPORT Weather In the Valley and Coast Counties Has Been Favorable for GrovrinK Products Fall "Wheat Backward. United States Department of Agriculture, Oregon section, climate and crop service. Portland, Or., May 5. The weather during the week In the "Willamette Valley and In the Coast Counties continues very favorable for the growing cropa. In portions of Southern Oregon more rain Is noeded for Spring -wheat and for corn. In the eastern sections more rain is also needed, and the nights have been too cold for rapid growth.

May G.-Tho Weather Bu reau's -weekly crop bulletin Is as follows: The week ending May 4 -was unseasonably cool over much of tha greater part of the country, the minimum temperatures on April SO and May 1 and 2 being the lowest recorded lnthe last of April and the first of May for the past 30 years at nearly all Weather Bu reau stations from the Central and West Gulf Coasts to the Upper Mississippi Valley, and also at a number of stations in the Central Mississippi and Ohto Valleys, lake region and New England- Generally light rainfall or ab sence of rain has been favorable lor farming operations, but the unseasonably low tem peratures have checked the growth of all veg etation, and heavy frosts and freezes have caused much damage. Drouth has been re lieved over Southeastern Texas and over limit ed areas in the Central Gulf States, but con tinues over the greater part of the last-men-toned district and In Northern Texas, and rain is needed in Florida. Notwithstanding the decidedly cool weather during the latter part of the week, the temperature in. New England and portions of the Middle Atlan tic States and lake region averaged above the normal. Rain is generally needed on the Pa cific Coast. Winter wheat appears to have escaped ma terial injury during the recent freeze over the western portion of the Winter wheat belt, and the general outlook for .this crop con tinues very promising, although a slight de terioration is indicated in portions of the Cen tral Mississippi and Ohio Valleys. On the Pa cflc Coast the outlook Is less favorable, es pecially In California. Very little seeding of Spring wheat could be done over the northern portions of the Spring wheat region during the past week. The reports indicate that no serious damage has been done to early sown wheat over the southern portions. On the North Pacific Coast, the crop is now In need of rain. Nearly all fruits have suffered further damage from frosts and low temperatures, apples having apparently escaped with the least Injury. PORTLAND MARKETS. Grain, Flonr, Feed, Etc.

NEW YORK. May 5. The day's develop ments bearing on the value of securities were rather favorable than otherwise, but this did not enable the professional traders in stocks, -who were the buyers of yesterday, to realize thel profits without turning prices downwards once more. There was a fair degree of activity in the market up to noon. In that time some 300,000 shares of stock were dealt in. During tlie lat ter part of the day, the trading fell Into semlstagnatlon. Part of the activity was un doubtedly due to manipulation to facilitate the taking of proflta. Delaware & Hudson con tinued yesterday's advance to tho extent of IK. and St. Paul, Northwestern, Canadian Pacific and Louisville & Nashville were lifted at one time 1 to 1H over last night. There was a continued large trading la National Railroad of Mexico and In Reading, the last named rising at one time & over last night. Pennsylvania was lifted as much. This stock sold ex-dlvidend of 8 per cent and there was an element among traders who bought it and Atchison yesterday on the supposition that the taking of the semiannual dividends from the price would make them look cheap and at tract buying. But the buying thus attracted was not sufficient to offset the selling to real lze by yesterday's buyers. A recovery in tho price of copper gave firmness to Amalgamated, Some of the obscure Industrial stocks were pushed up sharply in an effort to sustain the market after the realizing sales bexan to have some effect, but this maneuver proved Unavailing and there was practically nothing left of the day's rise at the close, which was heavy and showed small fractional net losses generally. The recent rise in sterling exchange came to a halt today, although the late market was firm and discounts in London were also easier, At the same time, there was a sharp ad vance in sterling exchange at Paris, which was sufficient to wipe out the profit on the so-called triangular gold export -operation. It Is not expected, therefore, that gold will go out to Europe this week, although a email shipment to South America is indicated. The strength of sterling at Paris is believed to be due to remittance to participate in the Trans vaal loan. A number of favorable reports of railroad gross earnings for the month and fourth week of April were without effect on the market. New York Central. Missouri Pacific Louis ville & Nashville. Southern Railway. Chicago Great Western, Norfolk & Western and Ches apeake & Ohio all made handsome increases in gross earnings. The bond market was quite broad, but deal ings were unevenly distributed and the price movement irregular. Total sales, par value, $2,020,000. United States bonds were all un changed on the last call. Closing Stock List. STOCKS.
