Th combination of brewers, who tn
purchased stock la th K. Clsmsas Horst
Company, for th purpose of raising their
wa hop, was brought about aa a result of
resolotlona adopted at ths meeting of tb
fitted State Brewers Assodatloa, hold la
Chicago last Spring, sxcordtng to S- Frits
Nave, af th eorapaay. who came t Pert
land from Vancouver. B. C H says It la
th plaa ef tha reorganised company t Be
en re tea-year contracts with all phe brewer
of th country, aad to plant only aaouga
bops to supply th needs of tho brewers
with whom contracts are obtained- Ha
declares It haa been ths experience of
brewer who have failed to make contracts
In advance that they are obliged to pay
mors for their bops, and that those thsy
do purchase ere of Inferior quality.
Mr Nave said that tlx company haa de
cided to procure tho set lees of th best
agriculturists la tha country, and that, with
tnslr ssrvtcas. It will b possible to ra
hops oa th Pacific Coast smearing the af
Bohemia.
The E. Clemens Horst Compaay euros
hop only by tho sir-dried msthod. bo said.
By thus curing tasm at a low tempera
ture the soft realns ar. retained, and th
iop ar far superior to ths cured by th
higb-tsmperatur process, vrhsr tb trm-
peratur Is sometimes as high as 140 de
grees. Wa dry them at a temperature of
about SO degreea. Our hops have 20.23
per cent ot resin oa tho averag.
Tha company I represent Is 800 times aa
largs as ths average hopgrower. Last year
w raited 2S.0O0 bales or ths 303.000 bales
of hops raised la North America. Thoea
brewers who purchased hops of ua saved
SI. 300.000. becaus. of the difference la tho
price w made them and la th market
pne.
-Sp"t hops has advanced decidedly In
ths isat few days, and futures are sure to
advancs matsrlally.
Among those who took stock In our com
pany were Pabst, Brand. Ogden Armour.
and Fox. secretary et the Brewers' Associa
tion. Wa has letters from all th big
