Surplus Butter And Storage May Change Prices PORTLAND, Apr. 26 W - Cold storage movement is taking whatever surplus butter is nov oeing oiieretl locally. Increase in the number of b tor ago operators has been somewhat greater than normal. Many wno nave never before stored are this year op erating on account of the extreme -low costs. Demand for butter appears suitable to take care of offerings at prevailing prices. There is some taiK or a sur plus but tills appears chiefly com Inn from those who are not inclined to look with favor upon the newer op- orators In the storage game. There fore It would not be at all surprising if this element did not force an ar tificial price change within the Im mediate future. General prico of butterfat is un changed and Is practically uniform throughout the territory. General egg market trading con tinues to reflect steadiness. Demand for cose count supplies appear able to absorb offerings and prices are es tablished on a rather firm basis con sidered the market for graded stock. Conditions within tne live cmcken market continues more or less of steady character. Low prices have stimulated consumption with a cor responding increase In the movement. There is a fairly steady tone in the market for dressed turkeys. A few really worth while hens are coming and selling up to 18c lb. while toms show a spread of 15 & 18c for the bet ter grades. Mark-jt for country killed spring lambs Is inclined to slip a trifle with sales' of the better stuff generally around 13c although a few late sales have been made to 13'Ac. Yearlings are around GV.10c, Demand for ewes is good around 4c for best. Market for country killed calves ap- peurs a trifle easy with the bulk of tho tops moving Oc and only a lim ited supply going out at 0'2c lb. Hogs are steady with best light blockers (Ji,0 lb. Market for strawberries shows a steady to stronger tono with higher prices noted In spots. Sales of boHt Florin stock are reported at $2.50 but Home operators aro asking up to $2.70, lor Sacramento 20s. Both of good quality. One brokerage firm is reported holding a corner In old crop Oregon onions and is demanding tic from wholesalers for supplies which means $8.60(f $0,00 easily that retailers must pay. In face of new crop selling ?u for Cochella, the trade Is pushing the latter. Notos of wholesale trading: Hawaiian pineapple are being of fered. California peas are less plentiful and higher hero as well as In tho south. Sharply lower prices being named for lettuce. California sweet potatoes are about oir tne mantel, uoutnern yams plenti ful. Now potatoes aro firmer to higher as a result of shorter stocks. Market is practically bare of cauli flower and prices are of nominal charactor.

The showing then was about half tho normal output." The report indicates California, will have a crop below tho small showing a year ago and somewhat below nor mal. Recent cold "rains In Oregon arc said to have caused more damage . than first anticipated. Although the blos soming was very .good, the article says, "much of tho fruit did not set becanqo 'of the chill which kept the sap from rising to feed tho blossoms."
