THE MORNING OREGONIAJT. FRIDAY, - JULY 26, 1907.
OUTLOOK FOR HOPS
Various Opinions Differ in
Making Estimates.
VERMIN OVERRUN YARDS
With Many Growers Indifferent and
Cultivation Badly Neglected
Prospect None Too Good to
Kqual Iist Year's Yield.
About this time last year hop dealer were
wide apart in their estimates of the growing
crop, and even at picking time estimate
ranged from 115.000 bales to 140,000. When
I1 rial flfcurea were available and the total
reached the enormoua amount of 160,000 bales.
It went to prove that the best posted men
In the business were not In position to make
anything like accurate estimates.
Today dealers are again apart In their
gusdtng," and estimates on the rapidly ma
turing crop fun all the way from 130,000 to
an equal yield to lasf year.
Returning from a tour of the principal
hop-growing counties, Harry Hart says the
outlook Is none too good for a repetition of
last year's yield. He found many yards badly
cultivated, In some Instances only half done,
and a majority of the growers d lscouraged
and indifferent. In view of low prices. He
report lice present In most yards and If wet
weather happens of any considerable dura
tion between now and harvest, It will be dif
ficult to rid the yards of the vermin. Hot
weather, of course, will kill off the lice to a
great extent, but, on the other hand, ex
treme hot weather is liable to do great In
Jury to burns. Hart reports some contracts
he heard of at around 10c a pound, and ex
pressed It as his opinion that with a smaller
yield this year than last, hops ought to be
bringing over 10c by harvest time. He re
marked the people who are predicting that
thk year's yield will be 175,000 bates are
among those who last year made an estimate
of 115,000 bates, and in his opinion they will
be as wide of the mark in one direction as
they were In the. other this time last year.
Advices from' Sonoma County, California,
Mates that hop acreage in . that county has
Increased this year over last. In 1906 the
acreage was 212t, whereas, this year It 1
placed at US0, or an increase of 740 acres.
A London cnble received yesterday reports
the hop market dull, the weather unsettled
and cool, crop prospects remaining favorable,
which report was regarded here as rather
contradictory, as cool, unsettled weather has
ben supposed to influence rrop prospects ad
versely. COUNT ON GOOD YFELP.
Early Potato Crop Larger Than That of
I,at Year.
It if rather too early to obtain reliable data
concerning the crop of early potatoes, but In
a general way the best informed and closest
observers among dealers say the yield this
year will exceed that of 1JKM. American "Won
ders and Early Rose are in the market In a
limited way and while thiwft Is no demand
apart from local sources, supplies are not
excessive. Price for these early varieties
ranges from about $1 to $1.40, the latter
figure being for extra fancy stock and well
matured. More potatoes moved at 11.25 yes
terday than at any other figure, according to
the opinion of several prominent dealer.
There Is no inquiry from San Francisco for
early potatoes, the production locally evidently
being sufficient to supply the trade there.
Farmers up the Valley are too busy harvest
ing at present to give much attention to dig
ging potatoes and full receipts are not to be
expected until the rush In other directions Is
over.
Three cars of onions are due to arrive in the
next day or two from Walla Walla, and as
the street is practically cleaned up, the ship
ments will meet with good sale. Dealers are
looking for a bare market before Danvers
are ready. '
Use of Sulphur Allowed.
The agitation over a ruling recently made
regarding the use of sulphur in fruit drying
has resulted In an amended ruling. The
San Franck&co Commercial News says:
"Late advices by letter from the East state
that the Department will allow for this sea
son the use of sulphur In drying fruits, but
as little as possible should be used by the
dryer or packer. This sets at rest for this
year at least the use of sulphur, and before
another season It is quite likely that other
methods will be employed in drying and pack
ing fruits If the Department Insists on en
forcing the full text of the pure food law
In this particular regard. It la a well-estab
lished fact that In early days it was found
Impossible to dry apples so as to protect them
against worms, and It was only when a Mr.
Plummer. then living in Oregon, Invented the
evaporator, wUch he brought to California,
was It found possible to dry fruit so it woui
have keeping qualities. Since then the dried
fruit industry on this Coast took on new life
and has grown to Very large proportions."
Among Vegetable and Fruit Men.
A car of Exeter cantelopes arrived yesterday
and a car of Tur locks Is due to arrive today.
Among yeEterday's arrivals was a car of Va
lencia oranges that met with good sale, as
stocks are none too heavy. Green apples are
becoming scarce, the receipts from The
Dalles country not being sufficient to supply
. demands of local retailers, and no relief Is
In sight until the next San Francisco steamer
arrives. ' Field tomatoes are plentiful and are
quoted at $1(& l.i!5 per box. Estimates place
the Oregon crop of prunes at 22,000,000 pounds
and Washington at 5,000,000, according to
figures furnished by the California Fruit
Grower. A fruit Ann at Toppenish, Wash
says in a recent circular that there is much
more fruit In Eastern Washington "than pre
vlously reported, and that considerable will be
ihlpped from Waila Walla and the Snake River
country, adding that the Yakima section will
markrt large crops, as much new acreage is
planted every year.
Grain Market Remains Inactive.
The local grain markets continue In a state
of inaction, there being only the small move
ment of vheat to the South that always marks
th:s season of the year, and which Is not
regarded by the trade as of any consequence
In price-making. Rye flour and meal were
advanced yesterday 50c a barrel, on account
of the rapidly-disappearing stocks and be-
sauso toe season U ended, in some of the
Brain counties of California It is reported that
the wheat acreage has fallen back this year.
Owners of lands have found there is more
money to be made in fruits than In grain and
where the fa.Ilng off In wheat acreage occun
an increase to a greater proportion has pc
burred la fruit acreage. .
HOP MARKKT SHOWS DECLINE.
Crop In Washington Yards Will Produce
Monster Harvest.
TACOMA. Vash.. July n. (.Special.)
Employment will be given to 2u,hio men,
women and children in the hop fields of
Washington during the picking season,
which will begin early in September. The
varan of wasmngton are looking fine and a
big crop is .expected. The market is dead
The dealers say there Is no hope for 190rts,
though this does not necessarily mean that
poor prices will prevail for the new hops.
England wilt produce an enormous crop tins
year, according to reports, and if such
proves to be the case, the effect may b
demoralizing The following bearish report
wa received today: "Weather Is unsettled;
cooler. Crop prospects are still improving.
Est I mate 430,000 500.000. Market unset
tled ; prices irregular. Market showing
rather a declining tendency. Continent
prospects are very favorable."

ACTION IS DELAYED
Harriman Directors Postpone
Dividend Day.
GIVE GUARDED STATEMENT
Wair Street Pretty Well Satisfied
That Rate Is Decided f pon by
the Executive Committee
and Is 6 Per Cent.
NEW YORK, July 23. Speculative opera
tions fell Into abeyance today with the an
nouncement that the Southern Pacific directors
had adjourned for a week without taking for
mal action on the dividend. Superficially the
halt in the market might be construed Into
doubts as to what the dividend rates will be.
As a matter of fact. It was allowed to be
understood that the executive committee of the
directors had decided to recommend a quarterly
dividend of 1 per cent, thus raising in.
rate of disbursement from 5 to 8 per cent.
Whether the removal of something of the
mystery in the dividend decision diminished
the attractiveness of the stock from a specu
lative standnolnt was a bruited question, but
the hesitation of the market seemed due rather
to doubts over which speculative programme
might be portended by the singular procedure
regarding the dividend question.
Last year there was excited speculation in
the Harriman stocks up to the meeting of
the directors on August 15, at which time the
dividends were declared, and the street be
came frenzied before the public announcement
of the action was made on August 17. Yet It
was established by the testimony before the
Interstate Commerce Commission in the Harri
man investigation that the dividend rates
last year had been discussed and presumably
determined at a meeting of the executive com
mittee on July 10.
The price of the stock went to 81 today in
the early extension of yesterday's movement,
but the amount of sales to realize at. the
higher level became so portentous as to dis
courage further attempts to advance It.
On the day last year when the announcement
was published that the stock had been placed
on a 5 per cent dividend basis it sold .at 89
and In the weeks following up to 97. the
record figure. Since that time it -has sold at
64.
Southern Pacific dominated the day's market
and when it reacted from the early advance the
rise in Reading was ineffective to hold the
market. Other factors were of little influ
ence on stocks.
Monli on call continued to rule easy, but
rates for time loans were marked up .again
from six months. Sterling exchange rates
were maintained today In spite of dullness in
that market.
The fresh decline in the price of copper In
London hurt the metal stocks. In spite of the
taking of the amount of the dividend off the
price of Amalgamated Copper.
The Harriman stocks both closed today with
small net declines and the market did not
shake off the heaviness which developed after
the adjournment of the Southern Pacific direc
tors. Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value,
$1,388,000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.
