FROST HURT GARDEN STUFF CUCUMBERS IN MANY IN- STANCES RUINED. High Bean Prices May Begin to Wobble Within Short Time. If the general tendencies of whole sale prices are to be taken as posi tive criterion, beans may decrease from their present outlandish quota tions. On the other hand the 1916 crop is not entirely out of danger of frosts, as was proven here Saturday morning, and what looked like a bountiful bean harvest may yet be curtailed. War in Europe and mobil ization of American troops has been a tremendous drain on the bean sup ply everywhere with the result that beans jumped to 12 1-2 whore they still stand but the wholesale market is unsteady and dealers rather expect a drop. Even if beans should fall off a point or two, or several points, they will still be bonanzas for farmers who happen to have good crops to dispose of. Frost Hurts Gardens. It is now becoming clear that sev eral Grande Ronde gardens were harmed by the Saturday morning frosts. Leaves nipped have had a chance to turn black by now, and an auto trip over the valley and along the small-tract farms reveals the fact several patches were hard hit. Beans, cucumbers and other tender plants were in many instances ruined. There is little out of the ordinary in the retail markets this morning. About the usual line is carried and much the same prices prevail except that blackberries are selling three boxes for 10 cents. FRUIT Blackberries 325c. Blackcaps 2 boxes 25c. Peaches 10c.
