Local Prices Down 21-2 Cents
a Pound.
ALL BRANDS ARE AFFECTED
Mump in the San Francis- Market
Is the Cause of the Decline.
Production on the
Increase.
The f irmnafii that was apparent tn th
butter market last week gave way to
weakness yeterday and price dropped 2
rents alt amund. This brought the city
creameries down to the 35-cent level. A few
Outside brands were quoted at the same
price and others at 32', and 30 cents.
The direct cauN of tiie decline was the
lump that has taken place in butter prices
at Kan Francisco, that market going a
low as 2T and cents. California butter
has been offered here at these low prices,
though It is not known that any has been
ordered, though It is said a considerable
quantity has been taken by Seattle buyers.
The result has been that orders from the
north for Oregon butter have been cut off
and a reduction in local prices was in
evitable. Quotations in thts market would soon
have declined anyway, as the production has
begun to Increase, and from now on will
grow steadily. The high butter prices of
the current season are a thing of the past
and any changes that take place In the
future will be declines.
HOP TRACERS ARK IlfTOl RAt.KD. .
tan Pee No Proniir-e of Improvement In
Future.
The hop trade takes a gloomy view of
the future aa It la practically impossible to
sell hops in the East and their Eastern
advices have to do with little besides the
spread of trie prohibition sentiment. Added
to this Is the news from England of the
progress being made by the advocates of
the licensing bill, which, if successful, will
destroy the only market for the surplus of
the American crop. No hope is held out
of a bettering of conditions, and in all
quarters of the trade the belief is ex
pressed that the 1008 eeason will be an
unsatisfactory one. The only thing that
can cause an Improvement wilt be a light
yield in all the American hop states. No
general steps are being taken, however, to
cut down production, but this will have to
be done before prices will be on a paying
basis.
, The only transaction reported in the local
market yesterday was the purchase by
Ernest Wells from Chester Murphy of 18
bales of 1907a and 30 bales of olds.
Things are no better in New York state
than here; according to the Morrisvllle
Leader, which says: "The outlook tor the
hop Industry at present Is not at all bright
and it is predicted that at least one-fourth
nf the already reduced acreage will be
plowed up the coming Spring. There were
many growths produced last Fall that lack
quality and which still remain In the grow
ers' kllne and cannot be marketed at any
price. From 10 to 11 cents Is about all a
prime article will eell for at present."
PRUNE KFOC'KB IN EAST ARE SMALL.
Active Demnnd for Oregon Product la'
cooked for boon.
' SALEM. Or.. March 2. (Special.) That
tor-k of prunes tn the hand of Ka stern
jobbers are getting low and there will soon
be an active demand for this Oregon product
is the opinion of W. C. THIson, proprietor
of one of the largp parking establishments
In this city. Though the market has been
Inactive frr some time, owing to the finan
cial stringency, Mr. THIson says that job
bers are again taking an Interest and are
Inquiring for prices. While one or two
holders of small lots of prunes have offered
them recently at a S'-cent basis, and have
thus made It appear that prunes can be
bought at that price, both the THIson Jom
jmny and the Willamette Valley Prune As
sociation, which together hold 80 per cent
of all the prunes In the state, assert that
they have offered nothing- at lees than a
3-cent basis. They lelteve the situation
Justifies holding for that price, as condi
tions are rertaln to Improre. Speaking of
the situation today. Mr. TIllRon said:
"Cable advices from Europe and tele
grams from New York during the past few
days Indicate that the stork is rapidly
cleaning uj; that the situation is much
firfner and they are asking for prices on
stock In large blocks.
"1 believe that the low price named
during- the past SO days have been unwar
ranted and have only been named because
of the pressing necessities of either some
of the smaller packers or the growers. We
understand that the two principal packers
of Oregon rontrol today So to ;i per cent
of the unttold stock and at no time during
the recent depression have they sacrificed
goods or felt at all alarmed as to the ulti
mate outcome. They are today holding
their goods at prices commenaurate with
the value of the stork and trade require
ments and it is encouraging to note that the
market Is refunding to their efforts in
their own behalf and that of the growers.
'We heJieve that the recent low prices
were unnecessary so far as supply and de
mand are concerned, as with the exception
of New York, where most of the rejections
occurred, - s-tocks have been extremely light
so liRht that the largest jobbers East have
i-n!r" bought as they have been obliged to
have the goods to supply their demand and
they are now appreciating the fact that
they have got to buy quickly If they want
to get any stock, for with the total hold
Inrs In the state estimated at less than HO
rwrs. and at least six months' of active con
sumption, with May and June considered
the beet of the entire year. Oregon and
Washing-ton prunes, even at toda's prices,
are among the cheapest food products ob
tainable. POTATOES FOR THK BATTLESHIPS
Big Government Order May Be Killed In
Oregon.
There is a possiblity that the Government
order for 21 cars of i-otatoes for the bat
tleship fleet will be filled in Oregon. The
bids were opened at Han Francisco yester
day and the lowest bid was $1.03. The po
tatoes are to be delivered at San Diego
and the specifications call for a quality
that can only be secured at Watsonvllle or
In Oregon. Neither thts order nor the
larger order that will later be placed for
delivery at Pan Francisco are likely to have
effect on the market, owing to the largo
available supply of potatoes on the Coast.
The onii n market was quiet yesterday.
Pome growers sold in a small way at $2. 50
and buyers were willing to pay this price,
but would go no higher. A direct ship
ment of soo sacks of Japanese onions
reached San Francisco yesterday and 300
acks are due in Portland this week on the
Oriental liner.
Potatoes and Butter Imp at T aroma.
TACOM A. Wash.. March 2 . (Special.)
One of the commission- merchants w-as to
day jobbir g .No. 1 White River potatoes
at $15 a ton. w hlch is the lowest price
quoted this season. Potatoes grown around
Koy have dropped from $10. 1.0 to $10 a
ton. There has been no change In the
Yakima potato market.
Eastern potatoes are jobbing at all the
way from 1S to $1S a ton.
Butter took th big slump that dealers
tnid It would When the market opened
today. Washington creamery was being of
fered at cents a pound, which w as 3
cents under Saturday's quotation. Eastern
Creamery storsge butter dropped from 270
29 cents to cents a pound, and Oregon
butter from C.j 37 cents to St cents.
Opening of the Board of Trade,
The commercial exchange department of
the Board of Trade did not open for busi
ness yesterday as w as expect -d, as the
caipentcrs and painters engaged in fitting
up the place had not finished their work.
No date can be fixed yet for the first sa-
aion. but It is likely that everything will
be ready for business about the middle of
the week.

NEW YORK. March 2. The slender ag
gregate of business In stocks today was
mostly done during the first hour's session
of the stock exchange. The professional
operators, thought they saw an opportunity
of extending the decline which was in
force when the market left off Saturday,
availing themselves of the complexion of
reports of condition from various branches
of business. The event disproved the as
sumption and again disclosed the Insignifi
cant proportions of the market. When op
erators short of stocks attempted to oper
ate on what they conceived to be unfavor
able developments, they found no offerings
rortncoming. Their buying operations con
sequently advanced prices.
When the announcement was made that
the dividend on American Smelting had
been cut from an 8 per cent to a 4 per
cent basis that stock rallied from its early
depression to a level over Saturday's price,
tending to show the agility of practiced
traders In anticipating the event. The re
sumption of operations in the Montana min
ing camp was a factor of positive strength
and came as confirmation of assertions last
week regarding which there was more or
less skepticism. The resuonee of stocks
affected was, however, moderate. This was"
partly due to the modifying effect on senti
ment of the fall in the price of copper
again today, both here and in London. The
resumption of operations in the Butte re
gion was avowedly based on the expecta
tion of future renewal of demand for the
metal, rather than on any actual absorptive
power of the present demand.
Railroad traffic of officials, however,
spoke in Jess hopeful strain over future in
dications for business than has been the
rule with them, even through the worst of
the depression. The gross decreases of
Pennsylvania lines directly operated, of over
$2,000,000 for January, was held down to
a net decrease of $.RO0. The Southern
Railway system, considered to be at a dis
advantage in its opportunities for retrench
ment, showed a net decrease for January
of only $2.10.534. where the decline' In gross
earnings rsn to $000,021. This tendenry
was regarded as of favorable augury for
security holders. Reports of drastic meas
ure of curtailment of expenses on the
Gould system, however, did not prevent
evidence of weakness In some of that group.
The disallowance of the legality of the
Erie scrip dividend had evidently been dis
counted. The time money market here showed an
easier tendency. Attention was attracted hv
the compilation made by the Journal of
Commerce of new corporate Issuer for Feb
ruary, the total of less than $sn.0no.ooo
showing a decrease of nearly $60,000,000
from the new issues of February of last
year.
Bonds were dull and irregular. Total
sales, par value. $1,710,000. United States
3s declined 4 per cent on call.

Selling Carries Prices
Downward.
CHICAGO. March & The wheat market
was nervous all day, the range of prices be
ing about 2c on all deliveries. Notwith
standing a sharp advance at all ,the prin
cipal European grain centers, the opening
here was weak. During the first ten min
utes prices declined nearly lc on general
selling-, which appeared to be mostly for
the account of longs. Good support, how
ever, developeil and a quick recovery fol
lowed. The upturn brought out liberal of
ferings from several of the leading com
mission housea and another reaction fol
lowed. News of the day was generally
bullish. The market' closed weak at almost
the lowest point of the day. May opened'
unchanged-to lower, at 99 to 99Hc sold
between 9TVt$Src and 4c and closed
1V1C lower, at TSJ'97ic.

firmness throughout. Trade, however, was
rather light. The close was firm. May

6H,c. sold to eOTic and then advanced to
6l4.c. The close was up He at 61 "4c
Trade in oats was very quiet and the
market was steady. Small farm reserves
had a strengthening influence, but were
offset by developments In wheat. May
opened unchanged at .VI lg 33 He sold off
to 52 4ic and closed there.
Provisions were firm early in the day
because of moderate buying by shorts, but
lost most of the strength later. A 5c de
cline in live hogs had a depressing effect.

EDUCATION IN THE SOUTH
Dr. Claxton 1Ils How School Sys
tem Is Growing.
NEW YORK, March 2. Dr. P. P. Clay
ton, head of the department of history of
education at the University of Tennes
see, addressed a large audience, com
posed principally of women, yesterday af
ternoon, in Earl Hall, Columbia Uni
versity, on the progress of the educa
tional campaign now being conducted in
the South.
"Every Southern State has doubled and
in aome cases more than doubted its
school appropriation over what lt was ten
years ago," he said. "The best buildings
being erected throughout the South are no
longer courthouses, but schoolhouses. We
have come out of poverty and in a gene
ration we have risen from weakness to
strength.
"There was no public school system in
the South before the War, and nothing
that could be called a system, until ten
years afterward. The start was made
about 1873, and by 1S90 we had something
that was beginning to resemble the sys
tem of the North.
"Since 1903 the appropriations for public
schools by the State Legislature In Ten
nessee have' increased 125 per cent. In
North Carolina they have increased 100
per cent and in Louisiana 140 per cent.
Furthermore, the efficiency of the schools
had been quadrupled through the estab
lishment of normal schools and better
school supervision.
"At first we copied the North In the
establishment of our schools, but now we
are creating a new type of education. To
day we are about as wide awake on edu
cational matters as any part of the world.
We have today the best system of agri
cultural education of any state of the
Union. Furthermore, no section of the
United States and no country in the world
does so much by state appropriation for
the education of the women as we-do."

If you were to hark your finger of
scald your Arm, you would Apply some
healing remedy as soon as possible,
wouldn't you?
That would be g-ood common sense
and It would bring the quickest relief.
You surely would never tnlnk of drink
ing medicine or doctoring the blood to
cure a surface affliction.
It's just the same principle witih dis
eases of the skin. Eczema, psoriasis,
salt rheum and barber's itch can be
cured and cured easily if you strike
right at the trouble as you do with a
cut or burn.
The cause of itching, burning skin
diseases according to modern science,
is a germ which feeds upon the weaker
parts of the skin. To kill these skin
bacilli which produce the itching sores
and ugly red blotches, use the famous
prescription of oil of wlntergreen,
glycerine and thymol, commonly known
hr D. D. D. Prescription. This mild
liquid was advocated by a prominent
bkin specialist. Dr. Dennis, of Chicago,
long before it was adopted generally.
This liquid Is called D. D. D. Prescrip
tion. It is a positive specific for all
skin diseases.
Don't dose the stomach. Cure the
skin through the skin. We know D. D.
D. and vouch for 4t. Call at our store
