DEMAND FOR SPOT
1
HI
There is a growing demand for
spot hops. With stocks of speculat
ors practically cleaned up, buyers
have been forced to go grower-holders.
The latter are exceedingly
strong in their views regarding the
price and for this reason no business
of importance has pessed recently.
With a lot of March deliveries to
be mada and yet unbought, the mar
ket is in a waiting position. The fact
that no hops are available abroad
has stimulated interest in the Oregon
market, where the only first class
hops remaining unsold in the world
are said to be held. While Califor
nia is reported to hold more bales of
unsold hops than Oregon growers,
the south is said to be so extremely
poor that buyers are not inclined to
even bid for them as long as they
can get the better grade here.
There is little doubt in the minds
of the trade that the price of hops in
Oregon would be soaring at the pres
ent time were it not for the fact that
contracts are so badly wanted. The
payment of higher prices for spot
goods would stimulate the strength
in futures and this is one strong rea
son why brewing interests are inclin
ed to go slow just at the present.
While prices are unchanged in the
contract price, 15 cents being offered
on all sides. Everyone seems to be
interested in contracts but the price
available is not meeting with the
views of growers generally.

Sport In Which Many Delight.
GREAT SPEED POSSIBILITIES
Several of the Skeleton Craft Have
Traveled Faster Than a Mile a Min
ute New Jersey and Wisconsin
Greatest Iceboating Centers,
The recent cold blasts gave the ice
yachting enthusiasts ample opportu
nity to enjoy their favorite sport.
To the enthusiasts, and they are
many, keenest suffering comes from
the fickle elements, which one day
promise a perfect one of wind and ice
and the next day bury hopes in snow
and calm.
Ice yachting is enjoyed in every state
in the Union where the ice forms reg
ularly each winter, but it is especially
popular on the rivers and lakes in New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Mich
igan, Wisconsin, Illinois and Minne
sota. - The Shrewsbury river, which rises

flows into New York bay at Sandy
Hook, js the greatestjce yachting cen
ter. Upou this shallow river scores
of the fleet craft are seen, and the
swift racers shoot by faster than the
fastest trains that ever rolled on rails
Luke-Wiuuetingo. Wisconsin, is an
other ice yachting center. The Lake
Winnebago Ice Yacht association is a
highly prosperous organization with a
tremendous fleet. Winnebago is thirt; -five
milps 'ong and sixteen miles wide
in places. Its surface usually remains
hard for three mouths in each year, so
there Is unlimited opportunity for ice
yacht sailing.
Few persons except those who have
ridden in one. have an accurate con
ception of the appearance of the ice
boat. Save for the tall masts and sails
it bears little resemblance tothe ordi
nary yacht.
The body of the boat is shaped like a
cross with the top part forward. The
beam is barely wide enough to bear a
couple of figures lying at length.
On the underside extends a long run
ner, which is usually the keel in the
sailboiit. The ends of the cross are
shod with steel runners about a yard in
length. The rudder acts on the same
plan as that of the ordinary boat, but
is also re-enforced with a steel runner,
which cuts into the ice in swinging the
yacht around.
Owe started the boat travels very
easily, even in a moderate breeze. Its
course is a series of leaps through the
air. iu each of which the boat rises sev
eral inches from the ice and shoots
through the air like a flying machine.
The return to the ice is so even and
easy that there is not the slightest jar.
It is this continual rising and falling at
high speed which make ice yachting so
4ttrnctue. .
Willi all its so called dangers ice
yachting has a fascination that cannot
be deuied. and it is a glorious pastime.
With the racers wrapped up in warm
clothing and speeding faster and fast
er, with the air full of electric- sparks
and the ice sparkling ahead, the glow
ing cheeks and the flashing eyes of the
participants in this sport attest its
wJiolesomeness To steer in a bitter
wind and to stand on the windward
side of an iceboat is one of the joys of
life.
For some boats records of a mile a
inimrte and less are easy, while in a
heavy-wind with perfect ice a speed of
eighty miles an hour has been accom
plished. In fact, there is a wonderful
record on the books of five-eighths of a
mile in fifteen seconds, or at the rate of
a mile in twenty-four seconds, two and
one-half miles in a minute, faster than
any automobile, aeroplane or any ma
chine has ever annihilated space.

A BIT OF KINDNESS.--"The
greatest thing," ays iome
one, "a man can do for his Heav
enly Father is to be kind to some
of his other children." I wonder
how it is that we are not all kinder
than we are. How much the
world needs it! How easily it is -done
! How instantaneously it acts!
How infallibly it is remembered!
How superabundantly it pays itself
back, for there is no debtor in the
world so honorable, so superbly
honorable, as love. Henry Drum-mond.

not quite comprehending what the boy
said, asked:
"Then do I understand that your
