The output of poultry arm products
Jn Oregon last year exceeded fS.000,000
In value, and the Industry is growing.
According: to the figures of the lust
census, the average value of eggs per
dozen In Oregon In 1SM was IS cents,
compared -with ICS cents In Washing
ton and 18.6 cents In California- The
average for the United States was 11.2

The poultry market for a week past has been
snusually arm. Receipts have been heavy,
but for some leason the demand has exceeded
the supply. Prices, conseqeuntly, have-moved
up. except for Springs, for which there Is less
Inqulrr.
Although the poultry market Is usually
ilower during the mld-Summor months than
at other seasons of the year, a good business
renerally has been done In this line on Front
itreet this Summer. Taken all In all. poultry
Is one of the most profitable Industries In
tills part of the state. Prices, except at a few
period?, such as following the Tranksglvlng
and Christmas holidays, are uniformly good.
nd the Fame may be said of the egg market.
It Is evident that the production of chickens
nd eggs has not followed the increase In
population.
It Is difficult to arrive at accurate statistics
of the Industry, but It Is known that the
product of the poultry farm in Oregon last year
exceeded $3,000,000 In value. No strictly reli
able figures can be gathered on the baslnesn.
as the census people did not gather statistics
of this kind from the suburbs of tho cities and
It Is apparent that a large part of the product"
came from such localities.
That the Industry Mn territory tributary to
Portland Is on the Increase Is proved by the
growth In the demand for poultry supplies
from houses carrying such articles. A' few
years ago there was no Inquiry at all for egg
producers and now the stores oan hardly carry
enough grit, shells, ground bone and the like.
Some months from 10 to 20 carloads of this
r-.atej-Jal lm 4rocght to Portland.
Intelligent pouluy-ralEtrs, are bending ti!r
efforts to Improve their stock, and In this lies
the success of the Industry. E. J. Ladd. of this
city, an expert In the business, is one of those
who believes In reducing poultry-growing to a
science. He says:
"The main Idea Is to educate the grower to
scientific principle. This Is the object of
the State Poultry Association which is doing
& great good In pushing the Industry to the
front. Last Winter they held a series ot
monthly meetings in the Chamber of Com
merce, and as some of them were attended by
250 growers. It Is needless to sav they were
popular. The meetings this Fall will begin
on the first Tuesday In October, when Ed Car
lisle, the light Brahma man, will lecture. On
the first Tuesday in November C. D. Mlnton.
of Salem, will Fpealc, and others will be ar-
rang"d for at the following meetings. These
meetings aro to ivoultry-growers what the
Institutes are to the farmers."
Mr Ladd declares that there is more money
in roultry-ra!slng than In dairying. The local
supply Is far below the demand and the In
dustry has a bright future before It.
Conditions that apply In the poultry and egg
trade here are good for other points In the
Northwest. Seattle and Taoorha draw largely
on this market for their supplies, and buyers
for I'uget Sound houses are frequently oper
ating throughout the Valley. In California the
situation Is about the same and It Is well
known that San Francisco Is one of the high
priced egg markets in the country, the enor
mous output of the Petaluma district falling
far short of the demand. In the East poultry
crnJlti ns are peculiar and Illustrate the mar
velous control of the market obtained In re
cent years by tog packers of the West. A New
York commercial paper of recent date said:
"ith:n the past few years there has been
a marked chattge In the poultry market of
-c" iorK. rormeny all poultry came from
Individual shippers. IlefcivM? harf th.ir- nt.
from whom they received supplies, and there
come ireeoora I choice. A list of poul
try shippers was a valuable asset"for a Arm.
ao go tunner oacK, the bulk of the sup
plies came from what may be termed Eastern
sources. New England points. New York
State, Pennsylvania and possibly adjoining
states were heavy sh!ptcrs, and different lo
calities built up reputations for their products.
'"Fjur or five years ago Armour and Swift
went Into the paultry business. The result
is almost astonishing when one stops to con
sider It. There are few Individual shippers
now. Eastern poultry-raisers have been forced
cut of business, and one sees the boxes from
tts large concerns everywhere. The bulk of all
poultry -which comes to this market is from
the Wert. There are still a few special totals
like Philadelphia, which sond comparatively
sma.l quantities, but they scarcely count in
the totals. The West Is supplying New York
with jjuitry and most of it comes from the
la-ge packing houses.
ia years past New Jarsey produced excel-lt-t
r.u.try and stripped H to New Tork. Now
very . ttie Is bred for this market. When
l-vs; tied about It, a leading receiver of
IK u' try said that the oompetttkm of the West
ern Amis who could toy down poultry In New
York il.eaper than the New Jersey grower
had cauted the Jersey producer to go out of
business. There are a few pctalttes pro
duced nearb which rank higher than thr
average run of poultry awl which bring high
prices ;ut the small receipts Co sot aftect
the r..a.a .viiuwt it is, on the whole, im
pcssll ,e . . ompete In this market with Arm
cur aad Swift and do business in a large way.
AncUicr reason assigned for the disap
pearance of Jersey poultry Is the fact that Hoe
tr uble the fowls and continuous inbreeding
has weakened the strata. But prokftMy mere
c: rr.t - t.tkn leos severe, there would be ssore
v.k:t efforts to overcome those difficulties,
vrt. h -re but minor ones, alter all.
licet vers in thte city mmt generally con
text themselves with such poultry as Armour
and Sv!!t send them or go without asy. While
the situation is not exactly to the ltkiag of
some p i-p.c, there is no likelihood sow of any
reversion to former condltloa."

RALLY CARRIED FORWARD
ESDICATIOXS OF COMIXG PERIOD OF
SPECULATIVE REST.
Approach Toward a Period of More
Stable EqulllBrinra Is Easily
Perceptible.
NEW YORK. Aug. 2L The lessening range
of the fluctuations In today's stock market, its
Irregular tone and the diminishing volume of
business all indicated pretty clearly the ap
proach of another period of speculative rest,
which is likely to mean small trading and
sluggish fluctuations until some marked change
In conditions develops. Tho rally which de
veloped yesterday afternoon was carried for
ward this morning to the extent of between
one and two points for the active stocks. The
rally was apparently directed against the
aborts and was effective In inducing them to
cover largely. This served as an admonition
to the bears that forces existed to oppose their
efforts to fores prices lower. Just as tho re
action on Tuesday had a warning effect oa
the over-Industrious bulls.
A comparison of prices of 20 active railroad
stocks indicated that the decline in average
prices from the high level of 1&02 to the low
level in the early part of the present month
reached something over 45 points. The only
substantial intervening- rally was In the lat
ter part of last year and the first part of this,
under the influence of what Wall Street has
come to name the "faith cure," consisting In
Intimations from an influential party of bank
ers last Fall, when bank reserves were fall
ing, that they stood prepared to supply $50,-
000,000 of credits to the stock market if
necessary to avert trouble. That measure
postponed the process of liquidation but did
not avert it. The rally In the average price
of the same 20 stocks, up to the culmination
of Tuesday, Is estimated at 11 points. The re
action from yesterday's low point was In the
neighborhood of five points, and today's up
ward movement did not avald to overcome
that. The approach toward a condition of
more stable equilibrium Is easily perceptible.
The early demand today did not go far beyond
the uncovered, short Interest. The actual weak
ness developed oy the United States realty
stocks was a factor In checking the advance,
but it was not effectively renewed after the
Realty stocks rallied. The day's weather
map was reported perfect for the growing
crops, and wheat and com eased off In conse
quence. Copper was strong in London, and
sentiment abroad was more cheerful regard
ing the prerent outlook for Southeastern Eu
rope. The week's receipts of Australian gold
and the fact that the currency movement at
the interior is still in favor of New York on
balance promises well for tomorrow's bank
statement, although the usual doubts surround
the loan Item. These new developments did
not avail to bold the market. Weakness be
came decided In the United States Steel stocks
and In Pennsylvania and quite a number of
leading active stocks were forced .a point or
more under last night's level. A final rally ac
centuated the Irregular character -of the mar
ket, and the close was firm.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value.
$1,109,000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.

GIFT OF POPULATION.
Cchsbs Barcaa Analyzes the Move
ment Toward All Sections.
WASHINGTON". Aug. 21. The Census
Bureau has published, as a bulletin, a
discussion on the Increase of population fa
tne United States as shown by the census
of 1900. The principal results of a study of
these figures are summarized as follows:
ne Increase In the population of conti
nental "United States that Is, the United
States exclusive of Alaita and the recent
insular accessions was 13,046,561, or 20.7
per cent. Only one country, Argentina,
has shown by the most recent figures a
more rapid rate of growth. The present
rate of growth In continental United
States Is estimated as double the average
rate of Europe. It 13 nearly double that
of Canada, and exceeds by one-sixth that
of Mexico, and by one-tenth that of Aus
tralia.
The rates of Increase on the two sides
of the Northern Atlantic differ much less
than they did a generation ago. Among
the five main divisions of continental
United States the highest rate of increase
Is found In the Western division, and the
lowest In the North Central. Among the
11 minor divisions, the highest rate of
growth 13 found in the Rocky Mountain
group of states, closely followed by the
Western South Central; the lowest In the
Northern South Atlantic, closely followed
by tne Western North Central.
In the decade 1S90 to 1900. for the first
time lit our National history, the South
ern States increased faster than the
Northern. East of the Mississippi, how
ever, the Northern States as a group
have grown in the last ten years some
what more rapidly than the Southern, but
west of that river the Southern States
have increased almost 2 times as rap-
Idly as the Northern, and It Is this fact
which makes the growth of the South as
a whole exceed that of the North.
In the North Atlantic division the rate
of increase has risen steadily since the
Civil War, a notable contrast to the trend
In the country as a whole.
The region west of the Mississippi River
is still increasing faster than east of It,
but the difference between the rates of
growth in the two regions, 1S90 to 1900, was
little more than one-fifth of what Is was
from 1SS0 to 1S90. The region west of the
Mississippi Increased more rapidly from
1E90 to 1900 than from 1SS0 to 1SS0. while
that west of the Mississippi increased In
the later decade not much more than
half as In the earlier. The conclusion Is
drawn that the increased growth of the
East and the decreased growth of the
West may both be connected with, a prob
able decline In the current westward ml
gratlon.
The rates of increase in the North and
South during the last 20 years were prac
tlcaily the same. But In the character of
this growth the two regions differ widely.
there being a relatively uniform growth
over the whole South, equalized by a bal
ance In the North between a lower rate
of rural growth and a higher rate of
urban growth. Extensive but sparsely set
tled areas In the western part of Kansas
Nebraska and South Dakota show a de
cline of population in the last ten years,
a fact which It la said may be connected
with the increase of population in many
agricultural counties of Iowa, Illinois and
adjoining states, 1SS0 to 1900.
The most noteworthy result of the en
tire discussion, It is said, is the cumula
tive evidence of the rapid approach to
equality in the rates of Increase of vari
ous parts of the United States. This ap
pears whether North be compared with
South, East with West, or city with
country.
