PRICES HOLDING STEADY (iidHCrs ;ctiprally Satisfied in View of I.ovt- Prices Prevailing in Other States Ijocal Mills Are r'actor in Valley. Over one-hfilf of the Oregon wool clip has been sold to date. Growers in the east ern part of the state have been generally free Fellers, und t'ne market has held steady at about the- same prices as prevailed at the opening. Very little wool will be carried over when the regular public salea are com pleted, according to the present outlook. The sheepmen are setting less than some of them anticipated before the season opened, but when compared with the prices prevailing in other parts of the country, they seem to have fared well. There Is a difference of opinion among dealers as to the future course of the mar ket. Some merchants and manunf&cturera who heretofore were among- the heaviest op erators, have been feolng elowr so far, be lieving that the market has not yet struck bottom. Tn the "Willamette- Valley wools have been selling at a higher level than similar -wools have brought in some of the Middle States. The prices prevailing hero are as good or better than those current in Michigan and Ohio, where there is only a quarter or a half-cent freight rate to the eastern sea board markets. Local mills have been the main factor this year in establishing the Valley wool market. Idaho wools have been selling actively In the past two weeks. Fully half of the clfp of. that state is now out of growers' hands. Prices range from 12 to 14 cents, for lino and from 14 to 164 cents for medium. Eastern dealers tn the "West, according to advices just received from Boston, have raised their buying limits, so that the new clipa have been more active In the growing sections. Although leading factors estimate that prices prevailing continue- above a parity with the Eaatcrn market, they ara willing to operate at the higher levels to prevent competitors from gaining an ad vantage. The highest prices of the season so far have, therefore, been paid. Another mall report from Boston says: "According to one manufacturer who was In the market this week, 'the wool dealers who have bought heavily ot the new clip aro going to lose money upon these deals. This manufacturer is talking 40-cent wool, but it is questionable whether he sincerely expects this situation. Undoubtedly, there will .be some purchases upon which dealers "111 make small profits at best. This is nothing unusual, however, and any pos sible loss ot this kind will be taken care of hy other sales, in which the profit will be atove the average. The manufacturers who buy their wool direct have been in keen competition with some of the . wool dealers, l ilt the final effect of this will probably be nothing more than a tendency to delay pur- i-itasin the clip, or perhaps, more correctly wpcaklng. to prevent pushing this purchase." I.UI-X, IN JAPANK9B WHEAT BUYTXG i rain-Bag Market Firmer. Owing to Better California Prospects. Trade In the local wheat market was on a ama.ll scale and jrlces were not changed A little export flour business is (passing, but there Is a lull In the buying of early wheat ' for Japanese account.

Cherries were in over supply and the market was weak. Cantaloupes sold at the previous day's fceU;ftsw;but a lower market Is expected next weak.

CHICAGO MARKET EASIER Declines at Close Range Up to Tliree-Elgliths Cent Primary Arrivals Are Heavy Corn and Oats Also Down. CHICAGO. June 20. Belief that rains had fallen at the right time in the greater part of the Spring crop belt brought about an easy fe.ling today in the whtit pit. Closing prices varied from c decline to c gain. Corn showed a fall of c to 'filc and oats a setback of c to c. There was an Irregular finish in provisions, ranging from 7" off to an advance of a shade. Wheat traders, with few exceptions. In clined to the view that, barring some por tions of South Dakota, the Spring sown fields were now In good shape. Trimary arrivals of wheat today were again heavy. 640.000 bushels, against 294. 0OO bushels a "year ago. Export clearances of wheat and flour equaled 462,000 bushels. Prospects of general rains throughout the chief producing states made the corn market weak. Some of the recent large tongs went over to the short side. Oats succumbed to heavy selling, due to an unexpected drenching of the country east of the Mississippi. In provisions the main feature was the course of a leading Western packer changing over considerable holdings of July lard to September. Carriers took the nearby de livery.
