ONION PRICES ALL
ALONG COAST WEAK
Onion market prices are very weak
all along the coast and sales are at j
present being made at the lowest
price for many years. Best Walla
Walla offerings are being quoted even
in small lots down to 80 85c a cent
al while the price is too low to bring
in California stock; .
On account of the lower figure in ef
fect it is not likely that local onions
will be freely offered for some time.'"!
While a small supply has been avail-
able, the marketing has been nominal,
both due to price and weather contti-
tions. - '
No improvement is noted in tne po- i
tato trade although Front street in j
Portland is selling more than former- j
lv. This is due entirely to the lack
of peddling direct to retailers and con- j
sumers by nearby producers. j
No outside demand can be confirm
ed even at present low prices al
though dealers here have spent con
siderable money in wiring offers to the
southwest. All answers are practical
ly the same, California is offering lower.

Oriqin of Oxtail Soup.
During the reign of terror in Paris
in 1793 many of the nobility were re
duced to starvation and beggary. The
abattoirs sent their hides fresh to the
tanneries without removing the tails,
and in cleaning them the taiH were
thrown away. One of the noble beg
gars asked for a tail, and it was will
ingly given to him. He took it to his
lodging and made (what Is now fa
mous) the first dish of oxtail soup.
He told others of his good luck. and
they annoyed the tanners so much that
a price was put upou them.

The Sardinians.
Sardinia was a wild place in the mid
dle of the last century. A traveler
says: "The men are clqthed in goat
skins, one before and another behind,
without breeches, shoes or ' stockings,
and a woolen or skin cap on the head.
The women have no other habiliments
than a long woolen gown and a woolen
cap" The peasants always go armed
to defend themselves from one an
other, so that traveling in the interior
Is extremely unsafe without an escort.
and it is even dangerous for ships to
send their people on shore for water
unless they are well armed. In short,
the Sardes are the Malays of the
Mediterranean."
