Make of Butter
Shortage Fails
To Change Price
' PORTLAND, Apr. 23 JP) There
continues an unexpacted shortage in
the make of butter at Pacific north
west points. Both city and country
manufacture Is reported slightly de
creased . for tho week, following tho
previous liberal expansion in churn
ing. , j ( - -t
Cold weather has put a crimp Into
tho increasing flow ;of milk Into
creamery channels, this being noted
not only In the Pacific northwest,
but along the coast generally.
There was no change in egg mar
ket conditions for the weekend trade.
Prices were unchanged in all posi
tions. UndersEl-ing by outside inter
ests and unattached growers keens
values at a wide spread.
Advance of 1c is being quoted by
some killers for heavy hens. Medium
and light weights remain unchanged
generally. , . '
Market Is still surprislnnlv loaded
with -ripe apples that need a home
badly;, therefore despite tho lateness
of the season, an unusual volume of
such offerings keeps the general price
list down.
Full steadiness continues in the
market for country killed calves. Late ;
receipts have been of fair volume with
demand taking everything that came.
Dressed hogs are holding.
There appears determination on
the part of the Willamette valley
trade to force offerings of spring
lamb3 on tho mnrket. Much offgrndo
stuff has been received lately with
sales down to a dime a pound.
Market for strawberries showed a
somewhat better tone for the week
end with reflections of Improved
weather. Quality was better. A gen
eral asking price of $2.50 for 20s was
reported. ,
Demand for prnctically nil offer
ings was" steady during tho weekend
session of the east sido farmers'
wholesale market. Offerings were very
much restricted. Tlufo wns little-
; change In tho price list.
Asparagus was in small supply nnd
sold rapidly at $1 dozen bunches gen
erally; the exception being some se
lect Mosier stock selling $1.10."
Spinnch was firmer. A loT of Se
attle stuff sold 90c with most of the
best local $1 orange box.
Rhubarb was steady .around 50

Rodishos held steady at 20c dozen

Spring Crop Of
Wheat May Not
Be -Very Large
WASHINGTON, Apr. 23 (ff) Unless
generous rains fall this spring in
northwestern states, the agriculture
department belisves the spring wheat
crop may be reduced again because
of last year's drouth.
This was pointed out In estimating
the prospective total wheat crop at
approximately 700,000,000 bushels,
made up of about 450,000,000 winter
nnd 250,000,000 spring.
"Spring wheat yields," the depart
ment said, "show a close relationship
to fall precipitation and weather con
ditions from April to July. Last fall
there was continued dry. weather
throughout some of the spring wheat
area and this points to low yields un
less there is generous rainfall In these
areas during the spring months."
A total wheat crop of 700,000,000
bushels is bout 30,000,000 below the
domestic utilization of the last two
years. Because of a short corn crop
and low wheat prices, farmers have
been feeding large amounts of wheat
to livestock. The usual utilization
would be about 050,000,000.
Supplies of wheat available for ox
port and carry-over on April 1 in tho
mur principal exporting countries, Notice is hereoy given that tho
United States, Canada, Argentina, and f County Court of Union County, Ore-
Australia, together with quantities gon, has appointed tho undersigned

rejected. A limited quantity ' of

lots of 04's nnd finer short combing
