THE MORNING- OKEG ONIAN, FRIDAY, ; MARCH 4, 1910. ID HIGH LEMONS SURE Famine Is Lopked for This Summer. AVAILABLE SUPPLY LIGHT Only Six Hundred Cars Are In Store In California and Picking From Now on Will Be Small. It Is almost certain now that there wilt e a lemon famine this season because of he shortage of Summer lenjpns In Cali fornia. The lemon is a more sensitive tree Khan the orange and Buffered severely dur feac the recent cola spell. The growers estl bmate the available .stock In store now at tonly 600 cars and the picking from now on "will be light. In his weekly letter to the trad, B. A right, of lxs Angeles, says: The lemon market to rather weak and prices low, but there appear to be signs of sreactlon and many think it will come soon, he lemon men of California met today in Los Angeles to compare notes and it was Wedded that there are probably not over rX)0 cant of lemons In store in all California. st was lb consensus of opinion that from -this time on the pickings would be light and that the crop would run from 4000 to 4600 cars of lemons as against 6185 cars for last eason. The following points reported, at he meeting with number of cars stored at acti piece: Santa Paula, 10; 6an Fernando. 6: High land and Rlatto, 12; San Zlego County. 225; Santa Barbara, Colegrove, 4; Lamanda, A; Ban Dimes, 86: Aiuro, 8; Fillmore, 2; Corona, 80; Lefflngwell. 85; Upland, 40: iLamlrada. 12; Tustin. 8. A total of 475 oars with a number of shipping points, not represented but allowed to -have enough to make a possible 600 cars tn stove here on February 28 as against 327 a month ago and 1300 at this time last year. There was much complaint at the meet ing that the lemons were coloring on the trees and not sizing up the way they should. Even In thva districts where there was the least amount of frost there Is much tree colored stock. With a light supply of lemons on hand and the pick in sight very Jlght (which was agreed to by all but Lef flngwell? who stated that he would have a ' good supply) It does not seem possible that much fruit would be carried over for Sum mer. Of course there will be a natural In clination to hold but the packers will have to supply their regular customers at mar ket prices and this will keep the stock moving. If Jobbers could buy at present prices and store. It might be a good move, but I have always understood that Cali fornia lemons melt down quickly when taken from the loo. If the fruit could be kept in the East under the same conditions as here they .would hold all right this year but it would take a man who understood lemons to handle them. The prices asked are from $1.75 to $2.25, a proiv.lnent lemon man tell ing me today that very good extra choice . lemons could be had at 42.15, usual terms. r. RAPE KB ITT COMING FROM FLORIDA. Good Supply of California Produce on the Market. With the resumption of rail traffic, the fruit and vegetable market was better sup filled with California produce. Among the receipts were two cars of oranges, one car of lemons, two cars of sweet pofatoea and a unjxed car of cauliflower and celery. A car of Florida grapefruit is In transit. The ' .Front-street merchants enjoyed a good day's business. There were no material changes An prices. The trade is advised by dealers at Jack sonville, Tex., that shipments of Bermuda Jsynlons from Mexico will start immediately. ,They will consist of Crystal wax and White 'Bermudas. Bermudas will begin to move ,rom the Laredo. Tex., district, according hso the circulars, in the latter part of March. TOO LOW IX THEIR BIDS. California Buyers Want Wheat, But Will Not Pay the Price. Business in the local grain market yes )feorday was of small proportions. Inquiry from California was reported by wheat stealers, but the Southern buyers' ideas of Lsrices were not such as to allow business to !ta worked. There wan, for some reason, a sharp ad vance in barley at San Francisco, but it had 9ko effect on the local market. Oats were lso quiet and unchanged. Local receipts, in cars, were reported by rthe Merchants' Exchange as follows: Wheat Barley Flour Oats Hay Monday 25 2 20 5 IS Tuesday 23 ... . 7 4 3 .Wednesday ........ 5 .... 1 Thursday 20 1 5 s 8 Tear ago .... 9 S 2 1 2 Season to date. 8108 11S3 1812 12.V2 2072 Sear ago U923 1433 U'J7 677 213a Butter Market Is Very Firm.

BUTTER FROM THE EAST SEATTLE DEALERS MAY CAXCEL CALIFORNIA ORDERS. Eggs Easier but in JLight Supply. Potatoes May He Bought in Oregon. SEATTLE, Wash., March 3. (Special.) A carload of Eastern butter arrived, the first since February 23. Several carloads of Eastern butter are supposed to be stalled between Seattle and Spokane, with arrival indefinite. Considerable butter has been pur chased in California, but dealers here be lieve there will be heavy cancellations, in asmuch as Eastern shipments have com menced to arrive. Eggs were easier at 27 cents. Supplies are getting short In some quarters. The floods in the valley have again made it impossible for potato shipments to be re sumed. There was talk on the street to day that cars may be brought In from Ore gon to fill temporary requirements here. Stocks are nearer depleted than at any time since the new crop came on the market. There were no grain receipts today and prices were unchanged. QUOTATIONS AT SAN FRANCISCO. Prices Paid for Prodnce-in the Bay City Market.

STEEL TRADE GOOD Stock Market Responds to Favorable Reports. VALUES TENDING UPWARD Corporation Shares in Denuind at Rising Prices Large Blocks Change Hands - Bond Market Is Firm. NEW TORK. March 3. Operators in stocks still found their advantage today In working for higher prices. The supply of stocks for sale was Increased as the level of the market rose, and the profits on spec ulative holdings became more attractive. United - States steel was the spine . ox the market. The stock was taken in large amounts to the accompaniment of various rumors. Conditions In steel were declared to be improving and large orders from the rail roads Tor new equipment were adduced as specific evidence of this. The news of the withdrawal of John V. Rockefeller, Jr., from the Standard Oil board was cited to prove that his withdrawal from the United States Steel board did not have any sig nificance. Better conditions are reported from Paris, but heavy withdrawals of gold for. export from the Bank of England occurred today. February entries of imports at the New York Customs-house were $11,000,000 In excess of February last year, showing the persistence of the balance of the merchandise movement against this country. The destructive storm blockades in the Northwest were without apparent influence. Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value. $2,780,000. United States 3s declined H per cent on call.

CATTLE ARE HIGHER Fancy Steers Advance to $5.90 at Portland Yards. MARKET OPENS STRONG Orfers ot $10.25 Are Made for Hogs. Oregon Farmers Are Now Be ing Paid the Highest Price in the World. Tho livestock market opened up strong yesterday after a two days' spell of In activity, due to railroad blockades. A lit tle stock came through and so keen was the demand that prices were easily placed on a higher level. This was particularly the case in the cattle market. Four ' lots of steers, all of extra good, quality, averaging from 1188 to 1266 pounds, were sold at $5.96 a hundred. This is an advance of 15 'cents a hundred over the best price previously paid in this market. Some good cows brought $4.75. A few eggs were offered and went at $5 and $6 and a lot of fair Quality lambs brought $7. ' No hogs were sold during the day. A few came in from Eastern Oregon and e sent on to the Sound. Local packers wanted them and bid up to $10.25 for the beat, but Sound buyers got them, though at what price was not learned. . These bids, how ever, firmly established the local hog market on the $10.25 basis. - Had there been any chance of getting them it is probable that even & better figure would have been of fered. The Oregon farmer is to be congratulated on the fancy prices he has been getting for his hoes at the Portland Union Stock yards. The Portland hog prices are now the highest in the United States, and probably In the world. Based on yester day's bids, prices here are fully 20 cents a hundred better than In any other part of the country. Even If local quotations were the same as those ' in the East, Che packers would still be paying more for Oregon hogs, every thing considered, than they pay for Eastern hogs. Fully 95 per cent of the hogs in the Eastern States, according to the best authorities, will yield to the packer from 8 to 4 per cent greater than the best local hogs. This is because they are better finished and better fattened than the Ore gon hogs and for that reason are cheaper to tne packer. The average yield of Ore gon hogs is placed at 76 per cent and that of Eastern hogs at 79 'to 80 per cent. All this is the result of the feeding. However, the moat competent authorities declare that the . Oregon growers, by wheat and barley feeding, can get the same results in their hogs that the Eastern farmers do with corn feeding. The receipts at the Portland Stockyards for the day wore 203 cattle, 54 sheep and 95 hogs. The shippers of stock were: Goodafe & Cassldy, of Gazelle. Cal.. five cars cattle; Frank Wann, of Aurora, one car sheep, and Kiddle Bros., with four cars cattle and hogs from Imbler and Haines. Tla day's sales were as follows: Weight.
