Market Review Indicates Higher
GARDEN
, Flour Prloes-OHeat Prices Strong.
. Garden seeds are on the market
and It would do well to Btart the ear
ly varieties of vegetables In boxes and
later transplant them. All of the
local groceries . have new shipments
of last year's seeds and all of them
will be fresh and hardy. Seed houses
, that have always found ready sales In
La Grande for astor seeds are pour
ing in their catalogues this month
nd In due time the astor lovers will
have their plants propagating.
, Flow Market Inclines bp. -All
market reports look for an
additional advance In the price of
' flour. It Is . quite certain that the
price of wheat will continue to climb'
owing to the oriental market. While
shipments were not heavy and many
, of the wheat pit recorded a loss of
a fraction of a cent In the price, this
la taken as no indication that the
price Is going to slump.- (Millers have
been the heavy buyers and this may
bo tnkein as an Indication that they
have been on the Inside of the wheat
.' situation and are laying in a stock
1 at lower figures. i ' -,
Cattle Firm and Hogs Higher. .
As usual the supply for cattle was
large enough to make spirited bidding
at the Portland yards and keep the
price at eight cents for prime stock.
Hogs had an advance of 15 cents and
the prospect Is for the price to hover
around those figures for a time. The
receipts were just ordinary and but
few of them brought the top notch
price. Calves have been at 9 cents
for the last week and tho prospect is
for to price to remain there or even
go higher. j mr.
Vegetables Score.
Even though a vessel load of greeiv
stuff arrived on the Portland market
the supplies had run down so low
that the demand will more than eat
np this shipment before others ar
rive. It is not likely that an'ytof
them will be seen on the La Grande
market save perhaps head lettuce and
celery. The local green house is sup
plying a fine quality of lettuce and
patrons, of the stores eagerly pur
chase whatever they have on hand.
There has been no decided change
In the fruit situation and none Is
looked for in the near future. Hood
stiver people are making efforts to
market their product on the coast in
a systematic way. and the method )
