PLENTY OF- EGGS
Portland Wants None From
- San Francisco.
LOCAL SUPPLY IS. SUFFICIENT
Eastern Orccon Flour AVI 11 Advance
Soon Citrus Krult Shipment In
January Portland Pro
duce Quotations.
Ein Fnuiclsco egg dealers arc trying; to put
some of their surplus product on this market.
The California market has broken under the
excessive supply, and the bis handlers there
uyxrying to find a shipping outlet. They were
not successful so far as this section Is con
cerned. for Portland has all the eggs needed
here, and If tbe weather turns' -warmer, the
local market will hare eggs to spare, as. com'
mission men believe stocks are large In the In
terlor. Last year a few lots of California eggs
were received, but none have come up lately.
One lot of 100 cases picked up on Front street
by a broker was shipped to San Francisco
about two weeks ago. The local market is
Quoted weak, with an. ample supply on hand.
Single cases sold at 25c, but on larger lots, 24c
was quoted. It Is believed, there are no Eastern
eggs now on the market, except a few In re
tailers' hands.
A correspondent of the Chicago Packer recent
ly visited Petaluma, the .California egg town.
He found there several poultry ranches, ' with
6000 to 8000 chickens and several hundred poul
try ranches within a radius of ten miles of the
city, each of which have from 1000 to 8000
grown chickens. In the Summer season there
has been as much as $5000 ald out In one day
by buyers for eggs, and the amount has never
been less than $1000 a day on business days for
several j ears back. Among the banks and busi
ness men of the city the rise and fall of the
egg and- poultry market regulate the business
of the town the same as the fluctuation of the
stock market on Wall street In New Tork or
the wheat market In Chicago or the cotton mar
ket la New Orleans.
The poultry business became so prominent Jn
"Petaluma that a few years ago a company was
organized with a capital stock of $50,000. Over
100 acres of ground were purchased and one of
the best-equipped poultry farms on tbe Coast
was built, it Is now known as the Wlllow
brook "Poultry Farm, with IL D. Presser -as
manager. It has an Incubator capacity of 1(X
000 young chickens, and has Its own gas plant
for heating, and Its own water pipe for water
ing the fowls. Chickens and ducks thrive by
the thousands.
The poultry business In rctaluma has grown
to such an extent that the next state Legisla
ture will be called "upon to pass a bill for an
appropriation of $C00O for a site of five acres of
ground, with the necessary Improvement In the
way of buildings for the study of the poultry
'business, food, eggs, fat. feathers and flesh.
This will all be under the direct control of the
California Agricultural Department.
William T. Simpson, of Cincinnati, proposes
starting the largest hennery on earth near Du
Pont, lnd. He has bought 2.000,000 eggs, at a
cost of $18,000, and they will be placed In 100,
000 Incubators to hatch.
Two thousand million eggs are the figures
furnished by the census men for the year 1002
In the United States. At an average of ISc a
do-en they are worth $250,000,000. To this
must be added the hatching eggs, or better,
the Latched birds that are sold as Spring or
other poultry. Last Tear this amounted to
$220,000,000. Thus the .annual egg and poultry
market crop amounts to $570,000,000. This
showing enhances the Importance of the chick
en and makes the poultry yard a strong com
petitor of, the stockyard.
(FLOTJR. WILL ADVAXCE.
Eastern Oregon SUUers Will Put tip
Prices Soon.
An Eastern Oregon miller who was In the city
yesterday said that tbe price of flour In his
part of the country will be advanced soon.
Several of the mills there will close down, as
they cannot get enough wheat to keep grind
ing, Tnere is. very little wheat left, and what
remains Is mostly In the hands of speculators,
who can hold until they are ready to let go.
Strong competition between buyers has kept the
price jjp. Some club wheat was recently
bought on the basis of 80s Portland, and It
.was reported that 78e was paid yesterday, but
exporters say they can All their requirements
at 76377c The country millers, who have a
good, steady local demand, are enabled to jay
better prices for grain than those In the same
locality who are making flour for export.
Canned Fruit Trade.
The San Francisco Trade Journal has the fol
lowing on canned fruits:

the year. Stocks are light and broken. It Is

Citrus Fruit Shipments.
A dispatch from Los Angeles, dated February
8. says:
The shipments of citrus fruit forthe month
of January amounted to 4505 carloads, of which
673 carloads were lemons. For tho same period
last year the figures were: Oranges. 4305 cat
loads; lemons, 378 carloads. The lemon crop of
this year is larger than that -of last v- n.

Slovr toN Respond.
Tbe local produce market docs not respond
as promptly to price changes at primary mar
kets as some Jobbers wish. Testcrday oranges
were adranced 25c In California, but no change
was made In the local quotation. If It had
been a decline, buyers here would have Insisted
on the Front-street trade meeting It. As It
was an advance, of course thejj were not In
sistent. This Is very satisfactory to the buyer
and the consumer as well, but the jobber does
not think It fair. In the grocery line It Is
different, prices being advanced or lowered here
the minute word Is received from the. East of
a change. -

their more demonstrative bidding for stocks,
which have been a feature of this week, were
lacking today. When It was perceived that
this support was relaxed, room traders ham

The selling was sot urgent, and the buying to

Cost of Llvinir Only SllRhtly Ad
vanced Xotable Activity In the
Bnlldlnir Trades.
NEW TORK, Feb, O. It. O. Dun A Co.'s
weekly review of trade tomorrow will sayi
Vigorous vitality Is conspicuous In trade and
Industry, despite the handicap of overstrained
and lamentably lna1rqua)e facilities for trans
portation. Concentrated efforts to redjice the
congestion at a few favored points apparently
Intensified the blockade elsewhere, aad Inclem
ent weather added a new disturbing factor of
an already complicated situation. Every pos
sible method Is being adopted to Improve con
dition", enormous sums aro appropriated for
extensions, yet accidents and losses are fre
quent. Transatlantic vessels tailed to leave on
schedule time, and many manufacturing plants
are clo;ed In part or wholly. Labor disputes
are more numerous, although not prevalent to
any extent In the leading Industries.
As the season advances, there Is notable ac
tivity In building trades, with the customary
acceleration of Inquiry for materials. Retail
dealings In most staples are fully sustained,
especially or seasonable wearing apparel, but
distribution at many points has suffered
through weather conditions. Wholesale and
jobbing trade Is steadily Improving, although
deliveries cannot be guaranteed. Foreign com
merce is keepitnr pace with domestic trade.
Hallway earnings during .January were 0.8 per
cent larger than last year, and 17.7 per cent
In excess of 1901.
It would, have occasioned no surprise had the
cost of living materially advanced during the
midwinter months. In addition to the season
able Influence of low temperature and conse
quent restriction of production In some lines,
there were numerous factors In evidence calcu
lated to aggravate the situation. In the face
of Inflating elements, the consumer was pecu
liarly fortunate, aa shown by Dun's Index num
ber of prices proportioned to consumption,
which was $100,020 on February I, against
$100,333 a month previous, an advance of only
one-half of 1 per cent
Conditions In the Iron and steel Industry are
without essential alteration.
Large consumption of raw, material by the
mills holds wool steady at the recent advance,
despite a somewhat weaker closlng'at the Lon
don auction sales.
Failures In the United States were 269 this
week, against 283 last week, 105 the preceding
week., and 261 the corresponding week last
year, and In Canada 32. against SO last week.
27 Jhe previous week and 23 last year.

SPRIXG TRADE IS EARLY.
Of Larger Volume Than InAny Pre
vious Yenr.
NEW TORK, Feb. 0. Bradstrcet's tomorrow
will say:
Unfavorable weather conditions may retard,
but they do not arrest trade and Industrial de
velopment, which continue In exceptionally full
volume for this season, of the year. Spring
trade, as pointed out'beretotore. Is earlier and
of larger volume than In any 'Previous, year,
and the remarkable steadiness of prices Is evi
dence that stability In present icondltlons Is ex
pected for some time to come. The current
reports from the dry goods trad are among
the most cheerful ever recorded at this season
of the year. Iron and steel Is active for this
season. lumber production and demand are
brisk, and hardware Is In heavy demand. This
progress Is being made In spite of some draw
back!!, but these vary shortcomings are evi
dence merely of superabundant proeperltyf For
Instance, the notice given earlier In the week
by the Western railroad that they would be
forced to refuse numerous classes of heavy
freight, such as gralrv.flour. Iron, Iron ore ami
lumber, and that. In fact, they could take only
perishable and quick-moving merchandise. Is
evidence that the railroad facilities, as fre
quently noted before, have not expanded so
quickly or in as great proportion as has the
volume of business offered.
Intho Iron and steel trade tho fuel situation
Is really but little better, owing to the conges
tion In car transporatlon btween the coal re
gions and consuming points. The late spell of
mild weather has certainly brought about an
Improvement In tbe coal situation.
. Cold weather was responsible for lower prices
for butter and eggs In January, and some hog
products also declined, but cereals remained
steady, and textiles nearly all advanced, as
did severaljilnds of Iron and steel, copper, tin
aad naval stores, offsetting the lower move
ment In quotations of country produce, coal
and coke,petroiuo, hides and some grades
of leather. Owing to the steadiness of the
large majority of prices, the net movement of
prices, as a whole, was only very slightly
downward, less than 1 per cent decline being
noted for the month of January. Chief among
