During the year 1924 shipments of barley wtrre niude for the first time tu severii) yraris amounting to 10, 25!) tons. t'acara bark exports also show etl heavy Increases over previous years with 443 tons shipped. As tliis commodity 1m very litfht this means quite some little volume. Hide shipments also show In creases with 476 tons m jy;M and In 1 !'!':( tons and i:ixi tons in 122. This Item Is delivered in the L'nited Kingdom, Japuti, Holland, (rcnnany, China ilnd Itus- sin In itrder nunied. Kxports of1 canned salmon also maintain the same ratio of in crease as did the other commod ities with im tons In 1924 nnd !7 5 tons In- 1123 and 3S3 tons In 1!'22. The Inerease shipped during I he evar 1!24 was caused princ ipally by the Increase In the wtir era I eareo items and not due to any ureal lncreae In'-' the major items exported from this port. Knyliiiul lie-elvel .Most lly ,ouiiiries the largest volume was delivered In the I'nlted Klnt- idoin which during I!24 received r.n.S.Kas tons compared with 271. 7:i! tons In 1323 or nearly an in I crease of 1 oil per Ct-nt. Privet Ic jiillv nil of the items sent to the ll'iilted Kingdom show Increases, tin fl, n-H was mentioned previoiiHly, lite wheat shipments to this r.onn t ry were 1 us.iHiu tons more thnn during the previous year. This ) was even- more than In 1!'22 when Hie larger shipilieuls of wheat were Kent (o this country. .Japan Is the second hti-K'sl customer for Roods from Portland. Their total of :HiS.4!7 tons for the year 1 924 did not compare very favorably with the year previous which .v;ia 47't.r.2ii tons. This, of course, was due io the increase In the lumber and wheat shipments. This how ever is an increa.se over the JH22 lirures. Kxpnrts In China also .show n decrease over l!2'i figures i',r:TA tons In 1!I2.1. This decrease was itceoiinled for entirely by I ho decrease in flour and wheat for Hie lucreasi' in In other to t his country wai noticeable an was mentioned previously us wus the Increase In several other Items sent. Also In the case of China, the exports were larifer than for the year Hi 22. The most noticeable Increases were shown In shipments to Uermany. Belgium. Holland and to th Scandinavian coun tries. Hhlpmenls of lumber to Austrulta Increased the total busi ness with that country. As a whole the increase to European countries was larger, more than making up the decrease to the Oriental coun l ries.

Wheat shipments, however, were not us liirfio ns In't!i22 when they were 71&.22S tons. Wheat was sent to the same countries as the pre vious year but the total ajuounl sent to t he I'nited Kingdom was nearly twice that dispatched dur l'K Iho previous year while to the Oriental countries the amount was considerably less. Lumber shipments amounted to VJi.iiTet tons In 11(24 compared with r37,7ti7 tons In 1!2-1 and 424, i?H4 tons In lit 22. a gradual In crease year by year. Alt hoiiKh Japan was t he largest customer for lumber as has been the case In past years the amount shipped to that country was not as large as the previous year le-ln 243.120 tons In 1 '.i 2 4 and 2S4.ti32 tons In Ili23. This however was not true In the case- (,f china which received 171,2fio Ions during 1!'24 compared with 101.:tS2 tons In 1D23 and !Kt, tuio tons in 1!)22.

The figures for 1 124, however, sliow an increase of 60 pep cent over 11)22 figures. Kx ports of flour to Japan also were less than for the previous year.

FITZGERALD Prop. t f f ? ? ? f f ? ? X ? ? ARABS LOVE BARGAINING ELOQUENCE is the accomplishment on which Arabs most pride themselves. They are continually hurling rhetoric, proverbs, poetical quotations at each other. Of course, there nre many opportunities for speechmaking, but they, enjoy it most while engaged in buying and selling. No matter how simple and staple the article mny be, fifteen minutes is the least that can be taken over a transaction. And then it has been greatly hurried! Just imagine if we had to bargain for fifteen minutes over everything we bought. Yet not so very long ago, every pur chase was a matter of bargaining. It is thanks to advertising that it is no longer so today. We sometimes forget how important advertising is. We do not realize all it is doing for us. Yet, if it had achieved nothing more than to do away with bargaining, it would be a boon to mankind. But it doe3 more. It puts purchasing on a business basis. It protects you against fraud and inferiority. You can plan your shopping according to your pocketbook, and not according to the patience and bargaining ability of everyone you will have to face. When you think it over you must real ize that it pays to read the advertisements. THOSE WHO READ WISELY READ ADVERTISING. f t t t f ? f y y t ? ? - y -f ? ? f y y t - t -I y y t ? y t t ? ? ? y t ? ? ? t " ? ' ? vv. J
