Hold at "Lower Jjerel, as They Cannot SeU at That ' Basis World's Supply Not . Short. After a more or lesa exoited opening, the prune market ha developed Into a flat affair, ao far aa actual business la con cerned. There la no Inquiry for new prunea either in the Northwest or In California. Dealers have apparently made up their minds that prices are too high and they are ahowlng a disposition now to stand back and await developments. Instead of a acarclty; there appears to he plenty of prunes -all over the world. The crop In Oregon and Washington, of course. Is light and will da well If It runs over 10.000,000 pounds, but "elsewhere the esti mates that are. being made are more favor able. California authorities are gradually raising their figures, and the French and Bosnian crops are making good progreaa Under the circumstances buyers are In active. They are averse to taking the ex treme aide of the market now aa growers were, alow In accepting bid prices earlier In the season. Northwestern prunes can be bought from growers at the present time for 1 cent less than a month ago, but as sales cannot be made even on that basis, packers are not In the market. XEW WHEAT DEMAND IS SI.OW Lower Prices Offered by Dealers Do Not Appeal to Farmers. The course of foreign and Eastern wheat markets la not atlmulatlng operations in the new crop In the Northwest. Buyers have prices out around 78 and 79 cents, but growers are Indifferent to these Quotations and dealers are also showing little Interest on the buying side. The spot wheat market continues steady, with a moderate California demand. Local recelpta.

Worsted manufacturers in the East appear to have plenty of orders on hand and their machinery seems to be well occupied but they are still complaining of advancing wool prices and small profits or none at all. The woolen mills are not well occupied as a whole, according to reports, although some mills seem to have a fair business. Demand for wools suitable for woolen mill purposes is not heavy and Is more or less erratic As a result of the prices of raw material further advances are reported In the past week by certain mills on serges and the lightweight season promises considerable rises over the prices named last year.

HOP CONTRACTS ARE FIRMLY HELD Orders on Market for New Crop, but Grow ers Will Not Sell. Oregon hop growers are strong so far as the new crop Is concerned.

Consular advices state that there are nearly, or quite, 1000 varieties of rice in the Philippine Islands. It la probable that aome of these will prove nearly duplicates, but tne actual number of varietlea la very great. The Bureau of Agriculture has been earry- lug on work looking toward finding out the beat dozen or so varieties from this great number, and progreaa enough haa been made to make it certain that If the work is con tinued it will be poaalble within one or two years more to send out these chosen varie ties, and title make poaalble an increase of from 10 to 20 per cent in the rice crop of the Islands.
