THE StiVDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND. JULY 28, 1907.
NEW CROP WHEAT N
First Car From Interior Sent
From Morgan.
WEIGHS IN 601-2 POUNDS
Indications of Heavy Product and
Good Tleld Proved by Initial
Shipment Which Attracts
IJa vorable Comment.
Vew-crop wheat Is beginning to appear In
this market, and before many days ship
ments will be coming In regularly, unless
there is a repetition of last year's expert
ence with car shortage. Everything points
to a fine Quality of wheat this season, and
the first car to arfive from the interior, re
ceived by the Pacific Coast Elevator Com
pany July 24, is reported" to be of excellent
weight and condition.
This first car of wheat to arrive- in Port
land this season was shipped from Morgan,
- on the Heppner branch of the- O. R. & N,
and is of very fine Quality Walla Walla,
weighing 00 H pounds to the bushel. Walla
Walla usually runs somewhat heavier than
Valley, the standard last year being 68 for
the latter, but 60 V is considered by the
trade as indicating a much heavier product
than early estimates predicted.
As flour stocks have run low, the appear-
ance of new-crop wheat will be welcomed
by millers, who will soon begin operations
on a large scale, after running In a hand-to-mouth
way for some time past. Flour
stocks were further reduced in the cargo
leaving for th Orient today on the stamer
Alenla, the manifest calling for 34.874 bar
rels. This shipment is not up to the
amount estimated a few weeks ago. and up
to yesterday space had not been fully
taken for flour on the next steamer, the
Nlcomedla. As she Is not to sail until
about the middle of next month, additional
pace may be reserved between now and
then.
BETTER FRTTT IN SIGHT.
TTek Opens With Improvement In Quality
of Consignments.
Front street was pretty well cleaned up
yesterday of Vegetables and moat lines of
fruits. A ear of Turlock cants, expected
for two days past, arrived In good condi
tion and will be on Bale Monday at $3.25
for ponies and $3.75 for standard crates.
A car of Crawford peaches will be offered
tomorrow also, having been due for delivery
last evening. They will be priced at $1.23
a crats. . The peaches so far have not been
Quite up to the mark, but the fruit from
the Lodl Bectlon Is expected to meet re
quirements of fancy retail trade. The first
lot of Thompson seedless, grapes from Cali
fornia Is due to arrive tomorrow. They
will be offered at $1.T9 per crate. Crabap
ples grown In The Dalles country are in
the market and bring 75c a box. Only one
house on the street had bananas yester
day, having sent to the Sound for a small
lot to tide over until Monday, when a reg
ular shipment is due.' A good many in
ferior peach plums were reported among
the recent receipts of the street. The same
wa sreported with reference to some lots
of tomatoes from The Dallon, which were
badly sorted and poorly crated and which
made a bad showing when compared to best
Quality shown from other localities. Locally-grown
Lambert cherries will be done
early next week, "but when they are fin
ished the Black Republicans and Royal
Annes will be in to piece out the season.
ENGLISH HOP REPORTS TAR I.
Som Sections Complain of Unfavorable
Weother and Vermin.
In the last Issue of the Kentish Observer
to be received there appear the following
reports from various sections in England
devoted to hop growing:
Canterbury The continued unfavorable
weather is causing growers much uneasiness.
The bins grows slowly, but there is a great
deal of headway to made up, and it Is
feared that mould will be serious if the
dull, damp weather lasts much longer. The
season has been most un propitious and
prospects are worse than for many years
past.
Farnham Owing to the continued unkind
ly weather,' showery days, cold nights and
. boisterous winds, the bine has made very
little progress during the last five or six
deys, and the outlook is not at all cheering.
The strong pieces are looking fairly well,
but they will not grow a large crop unless
the conditions speedily change for the bet
ter. The backward bine has done prac
tically nothing for a week. There Is a
little vermin about, but very little wash
ing is in progress.
Harbledown The hops here present a
most unkindly appearance, and the effect
of the low temperature on the growth of
the bine is now only too obvious. With
24 hours sunshine burr- will be found -In
the Bramllngs. In a few gardens the bine
might be called "up," but the majority of
the hops in this parish will require a few
days' forcing weather to put them there.
Vermin has been kept In check, so far,
with very little troubhe. Warmer weather
is badly needed to encourage the growth of
the later varieties. It is now too late for
the Bramllngs to be anything but light.
Cable dispatches, however, received of
- much later date indicate that the English
crop conditions improved rapidly and that
prospects were good for an average crop.
SEND COWS TO CHINA.
Stocking rp Dnlry Farms Near Hongkong
Through Fortiand Buyer.
' For some time past shipments - of milch
cows have been, made on the Oriental
steamers, a bunch leaving today on the
Alesla, consigned to Hongkong. These ani
mals are keeping up herds on dairy farms
near that city and for Improving breeds.
They are selected animals picked up by E. L.
Lindsay, of the East Side, who has been
handling the order for some months past.
In the local livestock market yesterday
the receipts of cattle amounted to x127
head of rather inferior grade, and as a con
sequence trade was slow. Hogs were in
a little better demand, and market reported
strong, as but 62 head came fn. Receipts
of sheep amounted to 820 head and market
kept steady. Quotations given elsewhere
remained unchanged for the day.
Dressed meats were in rather full supply
all the past week, the only grade not meet
ing demands fully being fancy veal. Con
siderable bull meat came In late in the
week and met with very slow sale, in fact;
some quarters were not disposed of at clos
ing time yesterday.
Dairy Products Slow Sale.
The egg situation Improved but slightly
at the close of the week, In nearly all com
mission houses there being larger stocks
than desired. In several places the accu
mulated stock has deteriorated until the
stock of seconds is much heavier than deal
ers relish. Prices yesterday held fairly
steady at quotation for fresh ranch stock,
but Increased receipts in the next few days
will result In weakening the market again.
Late arrivals of poultry yesterday had to
be carried over but dealers were not partic
ularly concerned, as there had been a good
demand pretty much all week. More than
the usual amount of country butter ap
, peared In several. houses, but as city cream
eries are pushed up with their orders, there
is no likelihood that the country stock will
last long.

STOCK MARKET SLUGGISH
Bank Clearings Outside Reserve
Cities Show $65,000,000 In
crease Tills Tear, Indicating
Wide Business Activity.
NEW YORK, July 27. The sluggishness of
the Harriman Pacific which hu been In evi
dence ever since the Intended dividend rate
on Southern Pacific was made definitely known,
was a continued restraint on the market today.,
Price, fluctuated unevenly over a narrow
range and trading at times was nearly idle.
The complexion of the bank statement was
not liked, the growth -in deposits through the
heavy loan expansion offsetting practically all
of the benefit to the surplus from gain in cash,
which was nearly as large as anticipated.
Foreign exchange rates were fully held and
the conviction was strengthened that next
week will see a renewed outgo of gold ' to
Prance. The demand of the Bank of France
is not to be construed as a policy of accumu
lation of Idle surplus, as its gold holdings' are
till $22,372,606 less than in this week last
year, while Its coin Issued and outstanding
loans are many millions in excess of last year's
figures, .
Bank clearings for the week, show an ex
pansion over last year, and it is significant
that while New York's clearings for five days
are $70,000 less than last year, those for all
cities outside the seven leading reserve centers)
are $65,000,000 greater 'than last year, thus
reflecting the widespread distribution of the
activity.
The week's expansion of New York loans 4m
attributed to a transfer of loans from trust
companies to banks Induced by the unprofitable
rates for money on call.
There was some recovery in the railway
issues from the recent weakness. Firmness lrv
United States Steel was attributed to the ex
pectation of a favorable report for the July
quarter to be published next week. Cotton
carriers and Industrials showed Boms special
strength. Changes at the end of the day were
small and the tone Irregular. Total sales of
bonds, par value, $308,000. United States
regular 2s advanced and the 3s per cent
on call during the week.

WE CAN ALL MAKE MONEY.
I believe anyone can make money in
Mexican mining stock, and I want to add
my experience in that line. While I have
not mads as much as some, still I am
proud of my success. I Bold stock which
cost me $30 .for $160, makine; 400 per cent
in three months, and I still have stock
which, at the present price, would make
me a profit, of $6000. why do people put
their money in savings banks at 4 per
cent -when they can make so much more?
The banks make from 50 to 100 per cent
on your money, why not make it your
self? If you are afraid of mining In
mvestments, start on a Bmall scale. Ten
dollars, $20 or $50. with the profits rein
vested as they accrue, will soon make you
thousands. Be sure to invest in a mine
that is being actively operated, one from
which at least $50,000 worth of ore has al
ready been taken, and Invest with a re
liable company, then you are sura to win.
For Information regarding safe Invest
ments In Mexico, address the Pittsburg
Oaxaca Mining Company, block 76t!, Pitts
burg. Pa. I know by experience they are
Derfectly reliable. Start, no matter how
small the Investment; you can't lose if
you follow tne advice or tne i'lttsburg
Oaxaca people. Joseph Michlel, Advt.
