CALIFORNIA READY BUYER Ijoeal Market Is on Firm Basle With Quotations Unchanged Crop Reports From Interior More Favorable. Oriental wheat buyers are still dickering in the market, but they are & cent or two under sellers' prices. There Is no likeli hood that quotations will be lowered, and it 1 probable the buyers on the other side will have to come through- California millers continue to take wheat at current jwlcea, and this is helping" to keep the mar ket firm. No change has ben made In local quotations this week. Weather reports from the Inland Em pire yesterday were mors favorable. The weather was cooler, and it is believed no material damage was done. The only com plaints have come from the late sections. There were the same complaints from there last year, yet the crop came through fine. According to reports from farmers in some sections, the three or four days of hot weather has been the making of the grain, in the Oregon river counties the crop Is not looking as well as last year, when It was eToeptlemally good, but elsewhere in Eastern Oregon the reports are favorable. The East ern Washington crop, as a whole, seems to be coming along fully as good as a year CO. In Idaho the prospects are better than last year. Local receipts.

Although only one outright sale has been reported, more than half of Wallowa Coun ty's 1013 wool crop may he considered aa having been marketed. The bulk of the clip win be consigned direct to Boston houses and held to await developments in the-Eastern market. This business Is being handled on agreements under w lilch ad vances are made to the growers. The one sale made was by R. F. Stubble field to Bicknell & Oxman. Mr. Stubblef ield old 11.000 fleeces, estimated to produce about 88.000 pounds. This Included the wool of Omar Stubblefteld and a number of nmaller sheepmen whose clip is handled with the Stubblefteld wool. The price was 13 cents for the fine wool and 14 cents for the coarse. The largest part of the consigned wool Already engaged goes to Halliwell. Jones A; Donald. The clips are as follows: Fred W. Falconer, flOOO fleeces, or 72,000 pounds, Including the Ramsey and Moxley wool; Jay H. Dobbin. 21.000 fleeces, or 16K.O00 pounds; '. Tl. Daugherty. C00O fleeces, or 24,000 pounds; N. C. Longfellow. 5200 fleeces, or 41.600 pounds; C L. Hartshorn. 5200 fleeces, or 41.AOO pounds. A consignment agreement for Peter Beau doln't 16,000 fleeces was made In the Win ter by E. W. Humble, of Joseph, represent ing Ortmmlus &. Peirce, of Boston. None of this wool has moved yet. No announcement has been made in regard to the clip from the 1S.0OO or 19.000 sheep of the David & Michellod Company. Last year this wool was bought by Julius Dufour for the French manufacturers. The Lltch fc Graves, the I. C. Johnson, the Luther Ptumbaugh and some other good-sized clips are still on the market. Results to date have given an agreeable surprise aa to Winter range sheep. Pro tracted cold weather and snow in the Win ter pastures along Bnake River, the Imnaha and Joseph Creek caused considerable hard ship to the flocks. It was feared the wool would be inferior. But while the fleeces are light, they are of decidedly better qual ity than had been expected. The shearing plant at Johnny Johnson's, on Pine Creek, began work the first of the week. Eight new machines were installed, making this a 20-machine plant. GRAHAM FLOUR OFFICIALLY DEFINED Department of Agriculture Reports on Its Investigations. The bureau of chemistry of the United States Department of Agriculture has been conducting an Investigation of graham flour, concerning which product there is great confusion in the milling trade, with the idea of establishing certain standards with which all graham flours shall com- i)y. Statements made by many millers show that a very large percentage of the so-called graham flours on the market are mixed products, or Imitations made from feed brmn. together with low-grade flour, or 10 per cent cracker flour and in many instances contain the sweepings from the mill. True graham flour, according to Bulletin 131. Just Issued by the bureau. Is "unbolted wheat meal made from sound, clean, fully matured. airdried wheat." This may al3o be calletf whole wheat flour," or "entire wheat flour." Mixtures, or flours from which part of the bran has been removed, should be labeled Imitation graham flours. Bread msd from whole rhoat meal was much esteemed among the undents for its medicinal properties. Tt was reintroduced Into general use early In the Ittth century hy Sylvester Graham. Bulletin 1G4 gives a brief history of graham flour. It also contains physical and chemical analyses of the graham flours found on the market. BF.RR.rES SF,IX AT LOWER Tmrraere Consigning to Outside PRICES Markets With Cnsatisfactory Results. Conditions in the strawberry market ware not raaterlaly changed yesterday. A rood many of the arrivals showed the ef fect of the recent hot weather. The best stock sold at $2 25 and poor berries went as low as $1. The demand from outside markets has been hurt by farmers in the Valley con signing sunburned or green berries there They are not only getting poor returns, but have closed an outlet for the surplus of this market and thereby weakened local prices. Additional shipments of loganberries were received from California. They offered at J 1.50 a tray, but were In small demand. J'herrtes and apricots were unchanged. Lemons were quoted a quarter higher at $S.C5 for fancy. Three cars of bananas arrived. A car of new potatoes was received and quoted a quarter cent higher at I cents. Peas were firm at 9 cents. Other veg etables were unchanged. CHEESE MARKET IS TENDING ITWARD . California Bnytng Freely at Tillamook The Local Supply Small. The cheese market Is firm and will prob ably be quoted a half cent higher at the opening of the coming week. Local stocks are small and Tillamook reports good Cali fornia ordei-s. No change was reported in the butter situation. There was a good steady demand for poultry at former prices. Hens were moved at 15 cent and broilers cleaned up quickly at 25 cents. Spring ducks are still bring ing a high price. Dressed veal was firm at 14 cents and pork was steady and un changed. The egg ma rk et is in c ood shape a nd dealers look for no change in the immediate future. Hank Clearings. Bank clearing's of the Northwestern cities yeetsrday wre as follows: Clearings.

Tacoma BEARS RAID MARKET Series of Drives Followed by Rally in Stocks. TONE GOOD AT CLOSE Denial From Washington of: Any Im mediate Trust Irosecntions Is Responsible for Improve ment in Sentiment. NEW YORK, June 4. Liquidation on a large scale, together with a series of bear drives, caured a severe disturbance in the stock market in the first half of today's session. A rally then occurred and trading became quieter, with a decided improve ment In prices. The initial downward impulse came from London, where American securities wore depressed substantially in some instances before the opening here. With the begin ning of business the market was flooded with selling orders, and iuotatlcns were forced down rapidly in all directions. Of 1S7 stocks dealt in about 100 reached new low levels for the year. In some caws the prices were the lowest since the panic of 1907. Denial from Washington that any immedi ate trust prosecutions were in prospect had a good deal to do with steadying the mar ket later, and In the afternoon prices grad ually improved. The upturn seemed to toe due largely to short covering, however. The further decline in stocks today led to the calling of loans, and while the ef fect upon the money market lias not been pronounced, bankers predicted stiffer rates before th end of the month. Time money was somewhat firmer today. The bond market was weak with declines of 1 to 2 points in some cases. Total sales, par value, S2. 850.000. United States bonus were unchanged on call.

CSpeciaL) One of the largest wool sales In Idaho since buy ing opened this year took place at Moun tain Homo today when 600.000 pounds of this year's clip was sold at prices ranging from 13 to 16 cents to Eastern buyers. The clip represented a pool of a number of growers, the largest amount sold by any one grower being the clip of benator Worth Lee. of Mountain Home. The wool was sold entirely on Its merits and as It was of good quality bidding among Duyers was crisp. Growers have about completed shearing and the clip is being stoi ed by many of them to await more favorable prices. They believe that good quality wool from this year's clip should bring a better' price than 16 cents, now apparently the maximum, and as they are confident the buyers will - pay better prices they are. willing' to take their chances by waiting. A number of the large sheepmen, however, are willing to let their clips go at this price. This fact. It la be lieved, is established by the sale at Moun tain Home today. Chicago Dairy Produce.
