Jfow General.
The hop market bu taken another up
ward spurt. It is now firmly established at
the 18-cent mark and wagers havs been
made that It will touch SO cents by August
, T,m. bti nvr world are
ateadllr climbing as a result of the poor
crop outlook In Europe. Foreign eablea re
lvmA vtitirdaT were extremely bullish and
aa a result there was a general exodus of
borers from tula city. Most or lam ousineas
done latelr baa been In spot hops, though
a few 1909 Oregon contracts hs-vs changed
band between dealers. There have been
Aaals ef thks character at 17 and 1T cents,

fused. In California, there liavs beea

At no time this season hss the Oregon
hop market been aa strong aa It la today.
Vp to the present time the buying baa been
largely speculative for local account, but
It Is stated that Eastern and foreign orders
are now coming In.

Adolf Heller, of Prague, Bohemia, writes
under date of June 2S:
In the Bohemian hop districts those gar

show no hope of a material recovery. The
heavy rains have washed away the honey
dew but did not diminish the vermin, which
Is very persistent, and as thick as before.
The reports from the o'her Austrian hop
districts are more favorable, although some
speak of the ap-pearance of fly In some parts.
Those growers who washed their gardens

Effect of the Grocers' Picnic oa Front Street
Business.
Front street yesterday showed the effect
f the grocers picnic, but In spite of this
a very fair smount of business was dona
Stocks of fruit were not excessive, except
In the case of watermelons, and the warmer
weather has caused these to move more
freely. The express was late and no fresh
Southern shipments were offered.
Apricots and peaches have cleaned up
well and the cantaloupe market Is also In
good shape. Blackberries axe beginning to
come In. but are still high. Cherries held
their own. Lambert selling at 10 3 11 cents

SHOUT STRAW BOTHERS FARMERS.
But One Rancher Has Snceefnlly Solved
the Problem.
ECHO. Or. July Z2 (Special.) Short
straw is taa ng ti-.e InKenuity of the farmers
here. The grenter portion of the wheat and
borlev s:raw In this vicinity l so short that
the heatlers and combines seem unable to
pKk up biit a rortton of the grain.
W. W. Penry Is a local rancher whose
Ingenuity has solved the problem, at least
to his own satisfaction. Taking an ordi
nary mowing machine, he attached a reel
and an aoron. on l:te principle of a lawn
mower, and he game- every spear. The
i-arrvlng capacity u suif'.cient to make one
round of the r"d. wh--n l'.-.e praip is trans
ferred to a wagon, 'f course, this is s'.ow
as compared to tit rcmhine or the heati. r.
l.ut he gets every 'ntr.g. down to w;th1n thn-e
Inches ef the ground
Another feature of this device Is that It
catches every st'aw that Is cut. something
the combines do not do. The writer travel
ing over a field a short distance from this
place Just behind a combine found great
quantities of wheat heads that had been
cut. but subsequently dropped upon the
ground. It Is possible that In one field at
least as much grain had been left as was
originally sown With the present price of
the wheat It would seem the slower method
of Mr. Penry would be the wiser.
BUTTER PRICES WTIX ADVANCE SOON.
Production la Steadily Decreasing Eggs and
Poultry Slow. .
A general advance In butter prlcea Is
probable before the week Is over. A few
of the city creameries are reported to have
raised their quotations, but the majority of
them remain at 2 cents. Tho make la
steadily decreasing and In the trade an
other advance Is believed to be Justified.
Egg receipts are large for the midsummer
season and with a restricted consumption
the tone of the market Is easy. Only fresh
ranch stock Is in demand.
The poultry market was not brisk yester
day, but most of the receipts were moved
at former prlcea
Short Output of Yakima Vlnrcar.
NORTH YAKIMA. Wash.. July 22.
(Special.) W. D. Smith, engaged In the
vinegar business here and In Toppenlsh,
estimates that not more than 500 barrels of
vinegar will be manufactured In the Yaki
ma Valley this year, lees than half the nor
mal output. Apples of the Ben Davis and
similar varieties have suffered this year
and these are the ones that usually find their
way to the cider mills.

MAY BE DISAPPOINTMENT
Union Pacific Strengthened by News
of Improvement In Haxriman'B
. Health Rally In Prices Oc
curs Late In the Pay.
XEW YORK, July 22. Tb. principal In
fluence In th. stock market today was the
rroalnj feeling; that speculative hopes of an
increase In the dividend on United States
Steel next Tusday ware destined to disap
pointment. Believers In the stock maintain,
however, that the earnings for th. last quar
ter, to be shown by next Tuesday's report,
and the excellent prospects for future busi
ness will safeguard the market value of the
stock. Reports continued to be recelvedof
the expansion of the steel Industry.
The laooolo explanatlo offered by J. P.
Morgan that 'there are more sellers than
buyers" of the stock at present failed to re
umn seatlxnent. Tne spculative reduc
tion la the level of the support Uvea a sug
gestion of syxtematlo liquidation that disturbs
speculative confidence.
The market started strong by reason of
bear covering of shorts put out yesterday In
fear that the Texas storm might develop Into
the pro port tone of another - disaster at Gal
veston. The passing of the danger today
prompted considerable rebuylng of stocks. The
market bad another rally late In the day.
Union Pacific showed some strength and was
helped by news of the Improvement In E. H.
Hani man's health. One explanation of the
strength of various stocks, which Is expected
now to come forward frequently. Is the as
sumption that Union Pacific la reinvesting the
proceeds of the sale of. Its Atchison preferred.
A contrasting rumor which was also heard
today with regard to some stocks was that
Union Paclflo is liquidating Its holding of
other stocks than Atchison preferred. A
higher price for copper helped that group of
Industrials.

WESTON THREShTNO RETURNS GOOD.
Best Barley Record So Far Reported Is SS
Bushels Per Acre.
WESTON. Or.. July 22. (Special.) The
Price brothers. James end Marvin, have
finished threshing 1200 sacks of barley with
their combine at their farm on Dry Creek.
They had a good yield, averaging about 65
bushels per acre. They are now In wheat,
which Is running between 83 and 40 bushels
per acre, and Is quite free from smut.
A. J. Mclntyre had 150 acres Jn wheat
at his place north of town which yielded
about 40 bushels per acre.
The largest barley yield so far reported
WAa secured by James Rltchey at his placet
north of town, where 18 acres averaged 85
bushels per acre.
A OO.bushel barley yield was obtained
from 25 acres of the L. T. McBride farm
and 30 acres of the T. J. Price estate near
town.
Wbeat on the O. M. Richmond place ad
Joining town, farmed by A. L. Douglas. Is
yielding 40 bushels per acre, as nearly as
can be estimated.
In the Dry Creek district. J. H. Coffman
cropped 1033 sacks of SpTlng barley from
70 acres, an average of 35 bushels per acre.
George W. Staggs had 1050 sacks of Spring
barley from 90 acres, an average of 27
bushels. A noteworthy fact in connection
with both these crops is that no rain fell
after the grain was sown, and the yield
was much better than the farmers expected.
BLIGHT UPON TOMATO PLANTS.
Eastern Multnomah Growers Will Ixso Two
Thirds of Their Crop.
GRESHAM. Or.. July 22. (Special.) To-mato-growera
along the Columbia Slough
and elsewhere throughout the eastern part
of the county report a serious blight upon
tomato plants, which will destroy fully two
thirds of the crop' this season. Tomatoes
usually attain rare perfection along the
Columbia River lowlands and the expected
loss will be a hard blow to the growers,
who have several nundred acres set out,
but which are seen to be withering away
before the blossoms are formed.
The blight resembles frost killing and no
remedy has yet been found that will stop It.
Record Tleld ot Wheat Hay.
COLFAX. July 22. (Special). lu Strevey,
living two miles east of Colfax, today sold
Colfax liverymen what Is thought to be the
record acre tonnage for wheat hay in Whit
man County. Mr. Strewey's wheat was dam
aged for harvesting In heavy winds laying
the grain too low for the header, and from
seven acres 44 tons of wheat hay were
mowed and sold at 810 a ton In the field.
At this prioa the hay paid better than the
yield of wheat would have done.

CHICAGO, July 22. A aevere slump In
the price ot the Jnly delivery occurred dur
ing the first few minutes of trading while
the wheat market was In an almost jde
moralised condition, owing to the general
i selling inspired by the unloading yesterday
by a leading bull of a. line of wneat aggre
gating 4,000.000 bushels. Weather condi
tions in this country and crop news from
abroad also furnished an additional In
centive to sell. The market opened ex
tremely weak with prices c to 23o
lower than the previous doss. July started
at L12 to 1. 14 and September at
$1.08 01.08. Within a few minutes July

market fair support, which caused a rally.
Demand for September was a feature. The
market continued nervous all day, espe
cially for July, but the tone was weak.
The movement of the new crop la still on
ths Increase. Arrivals here today were 199
cars and 132 were estimated for tomorrow.
There was also some export business done
on ths break. Cash prices In the South
west were from lo to 8c lower. Advices
from Australia indicate a record-breaking
crop In prospect for all of Australasia and
reports from Russia claimed that the first
consignments of new wheat had been
shipped from Crimea.
Buying of September com by several lead
ing commission houses was the feature of
the corn market, as a result of which senti
ment was quite bullish. At the close prices
were o to o higher.

closed firm, unchanged to o higher.
