HOLD THEIR WHEAT
Farmers Will Not Sell on the
Decline.
TRADING
FALLS OFF
Condition of Foreign Crops Oats
Market Stimulated by Eastern
Demand Plowing l"p Hop
Yards In New York.
Trading In the local wheat market yester
day wu ot small proportions. The feeling
was eavy and prices a cent under, those of
last nee-lc were quoted. This decline had the
effect of almost entirely checking the sell
ing movement. A good deal of business was
transacted last week and the strong local
demand met with more or less ready re
sponse on the part of sellers. The decline
yesterday, however, did not have the effect
that It sometimes does of bringing out more
offerings, .but on the other hand brought
business almost to a standstill. Farmers are
very Arm and independent in their views,
and practically all the wheat left unsold Is
held by growers who are financially able to
"hold on longer.
Uroomhall's latest foreign crop summary
follows:
United Kingdom Quite large area shows
plant weak, and possibly some reseeding will
be necessary, especially barley and oats,
wheat offerings are small. France, Italy,
Bulgaria, North Africa and Spain Outlook
unchanged ; favorable. Germany Outlook
satisfactory; supplies of native wheat umall
er; this country continues a free buyer of
both Argentine and Pacific Coast. Russia
Notwithstanding improvement In the South
west, one-third crop expected; prospects for
Spring crop good, but Spring wheat is less
reliable; elsewhere there Is plenty of snow
and prospects are excellent; poor outlook for
Winter grain may retard seeding of Spring;
supplies very light. Roumania Weather
seasonable and crop promises well. Hungary
Weather unseasonable; stocks decreasing.
The oats market continues to show a firm
tons because of the demand from the East,
but buying on local account Is light. Barley
Is dull and nominal. Hay Is going slowly Into
cdnsumption. Some growers having a cheap
grade of hay are pressing sales, but most of
the best quality of hay Is In firm hands.
JXK'AL HOP TBAIK QUIET MONDAY
Conditions In New York State as Reported
by Kit stern Papers.
There wefre no Important developments
In the local hop market yesterday. A few
small sales were reported from the country
at previous prices.
The latest Issue of the Watervllle (N. Y.)
Times said:
There la a little business doing here, but
nnt as much as there would ,be if the right
srfrt of goods could be found. As soon as
there Is a crop of the better quality offered
on this market It Is quickly picked up. and
only the scarcity of thin quality restricts the
sales here. There is some talk of plowing
up some of the yards hereabouts, but it U
not so general as over in Madison County,
where there were a good many poor hops
grown which are still left in the growers
hands.
The Cobleskill (N. Y.) Times thinks It
sees the finish of he Pacific Coast grower.
It says:
The hop market remains in practically
the same condition as It has for several
weeks, wherever a good crop is to be found
it Is eagerly sought at prices ranging from
. 10 to 12 cents, in spite of the fact that Coast
'hops are selling at from 4 to 5 cents. This
disparity In price is owing to the recognition
rty brewers that state's have the strength
ajid flavor superior to Coast hops. It Is only
a question of time -when the Coast growers
will have to go out of the business as they
cannot command the price. Their land is
too valuable for . fruitgrowing to long hold
on to a lowing game.
DEMAND 'OR POl'LTRY NOT STRONG
rWoring of Kick at Present Price Not Ex
tensiveButter Active.
There were very few arrivals of poultry
yesterday and the market was more or less
nominal. The trade does not look for a
demand as active as prevailed at the open
ing of last week.
The egg market was flat. The general
quotation on the street was 16 cents, but
round lota were offered lower.. A little stor
ing of surplus stocks has been done, but
not many eggs will be put away until bed
rock has been reached and 16 cents Is not
ronsldered bottom this year. Some of the
largest speculators say they will not store
any Oregon eggs this season, but will de
pend on the East for their storage supplies.
The butter market continues very active
and city and country creamery cleans up
readily. Present prices are likely to be main
tained unless there is a further drop In
the California market.
Light Arrivals of Produce.
There was a good demand for fresh
produce yesterday, but the market was light
ly supplied with green stuff. An assortment
if Southern truck is due on the steamer
today. Arrivals yesterday were one car of
sweeet potatoes and three' cars of California
oranges, one of them from the Eiler ranch.
The movement in oranges Is very good. Ap
ples are In fair supply and sell readily.

BEARS ONTHEALERT
Anticipate Reaction in Prices
of Stocks.
LESS SUPPORT IS GIVEN
Bull leaders Show Ijack of Confi
dence in the Movement Pres
sure on Amalgamated Weak ,
- ens Entire Market.
NEW YORK. March 16. The professional
element in the stock market was alert for
indications of reactions in prices today.
They based their opinion of the market on
the extent to which the rise had already
run. The inducement to holders on this
account to sell and realize profits and the
admitted narrow participation attracted into
to speculation from the outside public. The
conduct of speculation for some time past
has relied on an ultimate awakening of
widespread interest in stocks to afford a
medium for taking the accumulation that
had been going on off the hands of holders.
The revelations of a wavering of confidence
on the part of leaders of the advancing
movement confirmed the confidence of the
bears in working for reaction. They sold
with increasing aggressiveness and offered
prices down to take the market from those
attempting to realise.
lew developments had little reflection In
the market. Some confidence was- added
to the side of the reaction by the new
of the United States Supreme Court de
cision in the Armour packing house case.
The confirmation of the powers for con
trol of railroad rates granted by the Elkin
law was felt to be of serious import to
railroad companies. The passage of ths
dividend on Crucible Steel preferred was
minor Influence against the market.
Railroad traffic officials did not express
fuil concurrence In the views pravalent
last weeK in tne stock market of the im
provement in business conditions) which
has set in, although reporting some slight
growth of traffic. A heavy movement of
soft coal was attributed, however, to prep
aration for a possible strike in that in
dustry.
Foreign markets were not disposed to fol
low eagerly the initiative set by Wall
street last week. The investment situa
tion abroad as well as here is not yet satis
factory to those looking to enlist capital.
The London market reflects, in spite of a
growing accumulation of banking reserves,
d iscouragement over the volume of new
Issues. The reserve accumulation there as
well as here is traceable to declines In trade
activity and is an element In the absten
tion of foreign markets from any recall of
the enormous sums shipped to this coun
try to tide us over our crisis last Fall. The
excess calue of our February exports reached
$88,743,301, compared with $36,5uO,000 in the
same month last year, but the falling oft or
nearly $44,000,000 In value of our imports
Is the vital factor In this showing and is
conclusive testimony to commercial con
traction. Speculative sentiment was especially im
pressed by the pressure to realize profits
in Amalgamated Copper In spite of another
rise in the metal here and in London. This
realizing In Amalgamated Copper was
prime factor in the market weakness of the
late market, and. which continued up to
the closing.
Bonds were Arm. Total sales, par value,
$2,400,000 United Spates bonds were un

eral receipts In the Northwest and by heavy
world's shipments. The amount on passage
showed an increase of 1.010,000 bushels. The
market closed weak. May opened c.to
c lower at 95c to 96c, advanced to 96c
and then declined to 95c. The close was
at 96g9oc.
The slump in wheat depressed corn some
what, but active buying by shorts prevented
any great decline. May corn openedi c
lower to o higher at 66 to 66c old off
to 65c and closed at 65iB05c.
Oats were weakened by the decline In wheat.
May opened c to V,o lower to 6c higher
at 54 to 55c, sold off to 54c and closed

Remarkable Results.
Instant relief and permanent cures
have so Invariably followed the use of
an American prescription lor the cure
or SKin diseases tnat European ooc
tors, always zealous to lead in fields
of medical knowledge, are still direct
ing inquiries as to tne ingredients or
this external vegetable remedy.
The makers of the prescription, the
D. D. D. Company of Chicago, are re
plying; frankly to such European In
quiries that this Eczema remedy is
simply oil of wintergreen compounded
wfith other vegetable ingredients of
known healing power such as thymol
and glycerine.
Apparently no case of no matter
how long standing can stand against
this simple remedy, known as D. D. D.
Prescription. Here is a typical letter
from Mrs. E. Payne, of East Pittsburg,
Pa.: "I had a horrible breaking out
on ray legs and feet, and tried nearly
ell medicines and salves without re
sult. The first bottle of D. D. D.
helped me and I secured a complete
cure. That was two years ago and
I have had no trouble since."
We have investigated the merits' of
D. D. 1. Prescription and believe it to
be the best and -quickest cure for skin
diseases. At any rate, we positively
know that it takes away the itch Just
as soon as you apply a few drops of
the soothing liquid. Call for free
booklet on care and nutrition of the
skin and ask for a cake of D. D. 1.
