Hold Up In Market
NEW YORK, Feb. 10 () The
stock market tried to rally today, af
ter zlre sessions of sinking price, but
tripped over another dividend reduc
tion, and gave up moat of Its ad
vance In the final hour. Bmall frac

lose, but the late tone was heavy.
The turnover approximated 1,400,000
shares. i
After sagging 1 to 3 points in the
early trading, the market turned up
to show numerous gains of like ex

of that character along the coast ac
cording to a surrey of the situation.
However Indications now point to
general storage operations and es

confirmed by the storage report.
There was no change In the local

Owing to the lack of enforcement

In Wallowa Co.
By G. C. Meek
(Observer Correspondent)
WALLOWA, Ore. (Special) With
the recent steady upturn In egg
prices, poultry keepers of this com
munlty feel somewhat encouraged
with the outlook for a better year In
this Industry. During the past two
weeks prices on fresh eggs here have
advanced around 7c per dozen, with
some of the local stores paying 22c
per dozen. Production from . the
greater part of the flocks In this
community has been below normal
for this season of the year but with
the milder weather of the past week
many of the farmers report that
their bens are beginning to lay fairly
well.
Seme of the county road grading
equipment has been in use recently
in clearing the snow from some of
the market roads In this county.
During the early part of the week
one of the large graders made a
couple of trips over part of the Leap
market road clearing off the deep
snow. Some of the farmers living
near the road hare been able to use
their cars again after being snowed
in for the past several weeks. Sleigh
ing is still excellent on most of the
roads of the community and a con
siderable amount of wood hauling Is
still being done. Reports from some ,
who have been hauling dry logs from !
the Whiskey creek district state that
the snow Is about three feet deep
there making It quite dlflcult to get
out logs.

SUCCUMBS TODAY
(Continued From Fage One)
so poor they had to leave him in the
care of a public boarding school.
Sold Papers at 10
At ten he sold papers' on the streets
and his education in school stopped
at that age. At eleven he engaged
himself as cabin boy on a trawler
which later cruised the North sea.
When eighteen, he enlisted as a
private soldier and saw service in
South Africa for the period of the
Boer war. During his six years of
active campaigning he developed a
latent talent for writing.
He began first by patterning after
the man he most admired, Kipling,
writing vigorous poetry of soldier life.
This attracted the attention -of vari
ous journals throughout the world
with the result tthat Wallace had a
ready sale for his material.
Accumulating enough money, he
purchased his discharge from the
army and covered the rest of the
Beer war as a special correspondent
for Reuter's news agency and the
London Daily mall.
Founded Newspaper
After the Boer war, he founded
the Rand Daily Mall, the first Eng
lish newspaper in South Africa.
While editing the paper he began
writing adventure stories which were
eagerly sought by publishers in Lon
don. '
During his career, he wrote approx
imately 200 hovels, between 1300 and
1400 short stories' and 20 plays.
Wallace was gray-haired, portly and
claimed to be as lazy as he looked.
He smoked continuously, four full
packages of cigarets a day. and said
he had kept up that rate for 30 years.
"Whan I'm working. 16 hours a
day lsnt unusual. The difficult
thing Is to get started. I sit and
think about work for an hour or so,
then plunge ln. When I get started,
I can't slop." "
"On the Spot" Most Profitable
His most profitable piece of labor
was the play "On The Spot He
wrote It In two days and received
$ 1 00.000 for it.
Mr. Wallace was twice married, in
1900. while he was 4n South Africa,
to Ivy Maud Caldecott. and in 1921
to Ethel Violet King. Two sons and
two daughters were born to him.
Funeral arrangements probably
will await the arrival of Mrs. Wallace
who sailed from England today Just
before her husband's (feath.

EAST SIDE MARKET
PORTLAND. Feb. 10 ff) There
was an unusually heavy Increase of
offerings today on the east side farm
ers wholesale market. It looked like
all of the old timers were out and
as only one door was available for
stalls, some were unable to get into
the place. The remamder of the space
is taken up by the auto show. Such
an Increase In the supply, which was
unexpected', caused some recessions
from recent high prices.
Carrots were down to 45 50c doz.
bunches with lugs mostly at the same
price. The same quotation spread
was shown for turnips.
Parsnips showed a fairly good call;
mostly 50 a 60c lug.
Green onions sold well 40c dozen
bunches.
Apples were In supply and sold
fairly well within the low price range.
Cabbage was steady at 81.75 crate
for best.
Potatoes were slow; mostly 60 cents

Sprouts were In good supply; mov
