General Review of 'Market Shows
General Trend Upward.
Turkey red ta on a par with the fa
mous blueatem In Portland wheat
marts. California millers were mis
led by the government report of the
amount of wheat raised In the north
west and have not nut In the supplies
that they thought they would need.
As a result they were compelled to
purchase Turkey red In stead of the
harder quality. Some quotations from
the coast put the price at 96c. All of
the markets of the world show an
increase In the price and It will not
be long before the price will have
mounted to a dollar. - Bidding wai
brisk and (he market will be bul
lish from now on.
Hops Fall m a McUe.
The hog market was so well sup
piled that the price fell to a lower
notch. It Is not thought that It will
be for any length of time, since the
demand for prime stuff has been good
and will continue to be all winter.
Cattle Slow and Firm.
Cattle receipts have not varied
very much In the last month and the
dally receipts are Just enough to
leave the price at 8 cents. Lower
grades are crowding the better prices
for the beat price and the difference
between prime beeves and the poor
er quality Is less than it was a week
ago. If there should be an unlooked
for shortage In the supply of cattle
H would force the price of prlmeB
above the 8 cent notch.
Vegetables Are Higher.
large supply in the Grande Honde
valley.
Apples Higher. ,
Foreign markets show a better
tone for the better grades of appes
afnd It is not at all unlikely that from
now on the price of Oregon fruit will
be better all around. Much .of the
crop 1s still in the warehouses and
It is likely that a fairer price will be
realized for H.
