HOP OUTLOOK BAD
ii
Big Dealer Holds Out No Hope
for Market. '
MACHINE TO DO PICKING
Xew Apparatus Sow Being Perfect
ed "Will Do Away With Employ
ment for Thousands, Says
E. Clemens Horst.
There is no hope for the hop market
and no hope for the hop-picker. This
is the opinion E. Clemens Horst, of San
Francisco expressed yesterday. As for
the market, he has arguments to prove
It Is top heavy and will continue so
this season. As for the humble hop
picker. Mr. Horst has put him out of
business with his picking machine.
"Clem" Horst is the central figure in
the hop trade of the world. He Is the
largest dealer in America and the
largest grower anywhere, with yards
In California. Oregon, British Columbia
and Australia. When conditions are
favorable his yards will produce 30.000
bales of hops In a year, or about a third
of what the entire state of Oregon
grew this season. He does not confine
his selling operations to the United
States but does a big business in Eng
land, in fact, was the first American
dealer to invade the English market
and sell hops direct to the English
brewers. He is one of a family of
three remarkable brothers, all of them
in the hop business. Paul R. G. Horst.
who Is of a speculative disposition,
bought over a million dollars worth of
hops on the Coast two years ago, pay
ing as high as 20 cents a pound for
some of them. He has got most of
them yet and they are worth about a
cent a pound. In spite of his reverse,
he is still actively In business. Louis
Horst fared better In his ventures and
bought an estate. in Germany. He is
now Baron Louis von Horst and does
a big business with American and Eng
lish brewers. v
New Machine Ills Hobby.
. E. Clemens Horst's hobby now Is. his
hop-picking machine. It is the great
est labor-saving device of recent years,
he says. It is going to deprive thous
ands of persons of agreeable and pro
fitable employment. If-a success it will
destroy the one picturesque feature of
the hop Industry and so far as can be
figured out, will be of no benefit to
anyone except the possessor of the ma
chine and the brewer, who will proba
bly get his hops cheaper because of it.
But the world moves and modern meth
ods must prevail in hop growing as in
other industries.
Mr. Horst talks freely of his machine
but not to the extent of letting anyone
know how It is constructed. He de
clares, however, that It is an absolute
success. The first machine built was
tried last year on his yard in British
Columbia, where he grows hops for
the Canadian trade and does not have
to pay duty on his sales. Then he sent
it to Australia and gave It a second
test and this Summer brought it to
California where it had a final tryout.
Forty machines were built tp harvest
his big California yards.
One of the machines Mr. Horst
brought to Oregon and it Is now at his
yard at Eola. Some changes In the
machinery were necessary to adapt it
to the Oregon hop vine These changes
have been made and the machine will
be started in a day or two on Oregon
hops. No one has been permitted to
see the apparatus, as it is kept under
cover and a watchman with a loaded
shotgun is said to be on guard over It
night and day.
Picks 5000 Ponnds an Hour.
"The machine has picked 5000 pounds of
hops in an hour," said Mr. Horst yester
day. "As one man can only pick 10 to 15
pounds in an hour, you can see that It Is
going to revolutionize the hopgrowing in
dustry. Its great feature is that it solves
the labor problem, the most vexatious and
expensive thing the hopgrower has to con
tend with. In California the labor prob
lem Is more serious than here, as the
Oregon hop-pickers are a better class of
people, but nevertheless the hop-picking
machine has come to stay. All our Coest
hops will hereafter be machine picked."
With hand picking it costs the grower 7
to 9 cents a pound to put hops in the
bale. The machine, it is said, will do the
work for 3 to 4 cents.
Mr. Horst was not prepared to say how
soon the machine will come into general
use. Just now he Is giving all his atten
tion to perfecting It.
Of the future of the hop market, a sub
ject of vital Importance to so many Ore
gon fanners, Mr. Horst holds out no hope
whatever. ,
"There are too many hops in the world,
and that Is all 'tthere Is to 'it," he said.
"The American crop is short, but the
foreign crop la heavy and cheap. The
English crop is twice as large as It was
two years ago, and half again as large
as last year. English 1908 hops are selling
at prices equal to 8 to 10 cents here, the
average qualities of good, sound, clean
hops at a little less than 8 cents. There
are 40.000 bales of American hops now in
England that can be relmported to the
United States free of duty. The exports
of new American hops to England will not
be as large as the Imports of German
hops and the reimportation of American
hops. American brewers are now well
stocked with hops, and, although prices
are low, the prohibition movement deters
them from adding to their present sup
plies. Therefore the short American yield
this year is without effect on the market.
Last year we all thought prices could go
no lower than they were then, but they
are lower now I bought hope today at G
cents which proves that the hop market
has no bottom."
Regarding the agitation started in Cali
fornia for an Increase In the tariff on
foreign hops, Mr. Horst eald:
"The American growers will gain more
by bringing to the attention of our brew
ers the merits of home-grown hops than
by raising tiie duty on Importations. Too
many German hops are used in this coun
try, the German Imports In four years
amounting to more than one year's
American requirements. When the
American brewer can be taught
that our hops are as good as
the German's, it will be Uetter for all
of us. The United States Department of
Agriculture Is now engaged In this educa
tional work."

a A x- UDiVCIfiPO Sunt 95. Accord
ing to announcement made today, seven
Atlantic steamship companies ana tnree
lines operating on the Pacific Coast have
concluded a traffic agreement for the
handling of freight direct from San Fran
cisco and other Pacific Coast points to
Europe by way of the Isthmus of Tehu
antepec in competition with the trans
continental railroads.
The steamship companies have begun
their contest for a portion of this busi
ness by declaring a schedule of rates
from 15 to 30 per cent lower than those
previously In force. Freight from San
Francisco is to be distributed at Euro
pean points in from 30 to 45 days, which
it Is maintained, Is quicker service than
can be had through railroad companies
compelled to transship at New York.
On the Pacific side the trade will be
carried by the American-Hawaiian line,
the Cosmos Company and the Canadian
Mexican lines. Freight will be delivered
to vessels of the West India Atlantic
conference lines. Including the Com
panle Generale Trans-Atlantlque, Cora

under the new agreement have already
been shipped.

USE AND RECOMMEND
Newbro's Herpicide
TTnnn'rPrlr.f ladv scalp specialists and hairdressers use and recommend Newbro's Herpicide, instead
'J5 t lttm upon which a much larger profit could be made.. They claim that
Herpicide makes friends for them and gives much better satisfaction. Some hairdressers use Herpicide
for obstinate cases only, but why not use the best first f . .
Heruicide is a delightful dressing that can be used when there is no disease of the hair or scalp, and
as an actual remedy for dandruff, itching scalp and falling hair it stands in a class smgularly its own.
Afanv ladies obiect to a gummy and sticky hair dressing, or one that is full of sedimentary chemicals
intended to dye the hair. The marked preference for a clean and dainty preparation particularly one that
overcomes excessive oiliness and leaves the hair light and fluffy, is reflected m the enornf.ms sale ot
Newbro's Herpicide. Discriminating ladies become enthusiastic over its refreshing quality and exquisite
fragrance. It stops itching of the scalp almost instantly.
Two sizes, 60c and $1.00. At Drug Stores. Send 10 cents in stamps to The Herpicide Co., Dept. N., De

CURES ECZEMA QUICKLY
New Drug, Poalam, Now Obtainable In
Small Quantities.
Since Its discovery one year ago the
new drug, poslam, has successfully
cured thousands of chronic cases of
eczema and other distressing skin af
flictions. Heretofore poslam has been
icnonaa nnllv for the benefit of
eczema patients in large jars sufficient j
m - 1 1. ' d t.oulunl This WaS i
found to bo an Inconvenience to many
thousands who use it for minor skin
troubles, such as pimples, blackheads,
herpes, acne, scaly scalp, complexion
blemishes, itching feet, piles, etc, which
require but a Bmall quantity to cure.
To overcome this, and in response to
urgent appeals, the dispensers , of
poslam have been obliged to adopt. In
addition to the regular two-dollar
package, a special fifty-cent size, which
in future may be found on sale at the
Skidmore Drug Co., and other leading
drug stores, in Portland, or may be
ordered direct from the - Emergency
Laboratories, No. 82 West 25th Street,
New Tork City. In all eczema cases
poslam stops itching with first appli
cation, and proceeds to heal Immediate
ly chronic cases being cured in two
weeks. In less serious skin troubles,
results are seen after an overnight
application.
Samples for experimental purposes
may still be had, free of charge, by
writing to the laboratories for them.
Headache?
If it does, you should
try Dr. Miles' !Anti-Pain
Pills. Why, not do so.
They mil relieve the
pain in just a few min
utes. Ask your druggist
There are 45,000 druggists
in the U. S. Ask any of
them. A package of 25
doses costs 25 cents. One
tablet usually stops a
headache. They relieve
pain without leaving any
disagreeable after-effects
isn't that what you
want!
"My son Frank Snyder has used
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills for a long
lime. He never had anything to
help him eo much for headache. JL
year ago he came home, and I waa
down sick with such a dreadful nerv

the Antl-Patn Fills, and after while
I took another and was entirely re.

MEN
The great multitudes of men who have taken my
treatment have not been disappointed. They
know that I do not promise more than I per
form. To them I have actually illustrated in the
cure of their own cases the truth of what I
claim, namely, that my treatment is as certain
to cure as it is that the patient engages my
services and follows my directions. My success
is due not alone to education, experience, skill
and scientific equipment, but to the fact that I
limit my study and'practice strictly to diseases
and weaknesses of men. To male maladies atone

years of my life and on them all my faculties
are concentrated.
