ALL LINES STAND UP WELL, AXD
PRICES GOOD.
Turkeys Continue to Arrive lit Port
land Markets This Week.
Weekly resume of Portland and
general markets, issued from Portland
Tuesday afternoon, follows:
Strength continues In all. lines of
livestock. The advance in the price
of hogs, . was fully maintained
today, although tnere was only a very
limited number coming forward to
test the grade.
The weaker feeling which has exist
ed In the swine trade at competitive
points recently has In a measure re
duced the great differential that has
existed between the price here and the
cost of landing supplies from the Mis
souri river territory. However, to-
day's advices, while telling of a weak
er and lower price at South Omaha,
makes the top there 2c above what
Jt was last week, therefore forcing
this addition to the cost of bringing
stock here from there., On the basis
of today's values at the Missouri river
market, eastern swine cost $7.27 to
land here and at other Pacific north
west points. The best price available
recently here has been $6.75i which
still makes the differential between
the local price and the cost of getting
eastern supplies here very heavy.
Today's run of hogs at North Port
land, 314 head, compares with .449
head received both Monday and Tues
day of last week, Monday being a
holiday. .....
Hogs were steady at Chicago today,
with a run of 26,000 head, compared
with' 18,000 a year ago. Tops sold
there at $0.25 which price was receiv
ed for mixed nnd for good and heavy
lots,
At Kansas City there was a steady
tone, in the hog trade with a run of
15,000 head.
At' South' Omaha, while hogs were
weaker and lower, tops sold up to
$G.17V&. .
North Portland swine values:
TiBot nnr.kfirR. sV.7.r: cood heavy, at
$6.50 to $6.60; good light, $6.50 to
$6.60; Rough and heavy, $6.25; pool
and heavy, $5.25 to $5.50.
In the Stockyards.
NoVth Portland Hogs firm, cattle
firmer, sheep firmer.
South Omaha Hogs mixed, cattle
higher, Bheep lower.
Chicago Hogs steady, cattle steady,
sheep strong.
Kansas City Hogs steady tp firm,
cattle ste-ady, sheep strong.
Turkey Shipments Continue.
Evidently figuring that there Is al
ways a demand for turkeys no mat-
tor when shipped, some shippers con
tinue to send forward large numbers
of dressed birds, while during the
greatest demand. they, refused to let
'AVthWest there Is only a nominal
call' for turkeys at this time. The
market was nominally placed at 21
23c a nound this morning by the
trade, but as there were no sales made
at this range during the morning, u
would be hard to tell what the exact
price Is.
Shipments of dressed turkeys to the
Front street trade during the time 'n-
tervenlng since the close of business
Saturday.' were unusually liberal and
supplies hung along the wholesale
district this morning resemble holiday
lime. ' ' " .
Not only are many dressed turkeys
rnmlnir forward at this time but the
trade is i being liberally supplied with
Hve turkeys while a short time ago
they i.ould not be had at any price. As
for dressed stock the market Is ex
tremely limited. ....
The notato market has started tne
new year with only a nominal demand
from the outBlde. . . .
While weather conditions at this
lime re against thJ h'pmen of po
tatoes :o the south or the southwest,
shippers say that even without this
drawhhek the market Is extremely
limited.'.
Practically all of the small pres
ent business 'In the potato market Is
confined to seod stock. This is rolng
to Southern California. Shipments
consist entirely of American Wonders
nnd for .these the price remains act
ive at $1.50 per cental, f. o. b., coun
try shipping points.
Tnlila Htoelt Is nutet. While a very
small amount of specula. Ivo business
Is passing for tho account of tho Arl
zona and middle California, trade, bus
iness is of extremely .small volume
and prices are exactly tho snme as
have been quoted during tho past ten
days.
Local potato niarkot Is not very ac-
tive. Jobbing demand Is being, quite
well taken care of by former specula
tors who are now seemingly anxious
to unload with as little delay as pos
sible. . , :(.
Dressed Meats Are Firm.
All through the dressed rneut mar-'
ket prices continue to hold., very firm.
DresBed hogs are at last feeling the
effects of the Improved domand . for
meats, caused by colder weather. The
sales of fancy are being made at 9
9Vjc a pound. .
Dressed veal remains firm with no
change in prices from the high point
of last week. - : .
; Eggs Are Holding Steady,
' Prices in the egg market are, as a
rule, steady along Front street today.
Receipts are quite fair and this is
keeping tin mark.' dovp Some are
trading values a fir iclWm. ;'"
With, the coo ji" weather there Is a
sV.phtly lncreas"! output pf cold stor
age stock arp.-iJ 28c fo? best.
Celery t Be Scarce.
Owing to the unfavorable weather
In the south and the higher prices rul
ing there, local' stocks of celery are
. alher limited and the market Is hold
ins firm at 11 for best offerings. No
further shipments are due from the
south' until Thursday or Friday.
Fresh Japanese Oranges,
i A fresh shipment of oranges from
Japan via the north arrived on the lo
cal, market today in good condition
and sales are continued at $1.25 per
bundle. '
California tangerines are in more
liberal supply and as they are of bet
ter quality than thS Imported stock,
demand Is Increasing at $1.59$1.75
per half orange box. ' " ' '
Grape Market Overstocked.
Market Is quite heavily stocked with
grapes at this time. Front street has a
greater stock on hand at this time
than ever before at this season and
nrlces are more reasonable, Quality
