26 CENTS OFFERED
FOR CONTRACT HOPS
Twenty-six cents a pound is being
freely offered for hop contracts on the
coming growth in the Willamette Val
ley and it is stated that some leading
growers have been approached with
offers at 27c a pound.
No business is passing in the hop
contract market for the very good
reason that there are none that want
to sell. Growers as a rule are in a
position where they are not in need
of financial assistance, and for that
reason are more independent of the
contract market than during any re
cent year.
While -26c a pound is easily obtain
able for 1912 contracts, dealers are
not making any special outcry of this
amount hey are making an effort
to frighten growers by claiming that
the market is at a standstill. While
this is true to the extent that no busi
ness is passing, the inactivity is caus
ed by the lack of offers, and not to
any decrease in the demand for fu
ture delivery.
It is only in the spot goods that
the market is really stagnant. All
interests are now of the opinion that
short sellers are trying to force the
hand of growers by withholding ord
ers from the market as long as pos
sible. It is even stated that some
brewers have furthered this move
ment by settling for fresh outstand
ing contracts that could not possibly
be filled with. 1911 goods.
