WEALTH FQ! STATE
PREDICTED IN HOGS
Mr. Sproule Pleased by Gain
in Industry and Growth
of Oairy Herds.
FEW HORSES ARE FOUND
Southern Pacific President Sees Ke
fciilts of Itailroad Campaign
and Believes More Money to
Be Brought to Oregon.
"I am glad to sec the increase in
hosraising in the Willamette Valley,"
eaid William Sproule. president of the
Southern I'acine, upon his return to
Portland yesteraay after a week's tour
over the company properties in Oregon.
"Hograising will be one of the bi;r
industries of the valley in the future,"
continued Mr. Sproule. "it will give us
more real money and less stage money.
"The hof; industry, well managed,
does its own boominsr. While it is not
as picturesque as some of the other
activities of the farm, it produces one
of the staples of life and there is not
likely to be any glut of the market.
"A striking thing about my travels
through the state is the evidence of
the effects of the Kuropean war, in the
et range lack of horses in the fields.
The only horses that I saw were work
animals and growing animaTs.
fiooil Dairy Herds Found,
"Another observation that pleased
me was the tine herds of horned cat
tle. There will always be room for
dairying and always will there be room
for beef.
"These and the standard agricultural
staples should make the territory south
of Portland a rich country."
But Mr. Sproule was mo3t impressed
with the hogs which, he believes, will
bring a new era of development into
the wetaern part of the state.
"They were good-looking hogs. too.
he commented "They are the kind that
will turn many a farmer's mortgage
into a prolit."
llograising in Oregon was of addi
tional interest to the Southern Pacific
president because the presence of hogs
now doubtless is the direct result of
the campaign of education and dem
onstration that the Southern Pacific has
been conducting for the last two years.
( amiiaisn'x Results Evident.
Two years ago the Southern Pacific
operated a demonstration train over all
its.ines in Oregon for the purpose of
impressing upon the farmers the im
portance and the advantages of raising
hogs in connection with their other
agricultural activities.
"Many of the hogs that we saw on
our recent trip were the direct result
of that campaign," observed Mr. Sproule
proudly.
Mr. Sproule left last night for San
Francisco. He will travel leisurely
over the company lines in Western Ore
gon, observing the development along
the main line. He has been in the
state more than a week.
On his recent trip over the branch
lines he was accompanied by John M.
Scott, general passenger agent; H. A.
Hinshaw, general freight agent, and F.
ti. Burckhalter. superintendent.

VANCOUVKI;, Wash.. Sept. 13. (Spe
cial.) A special election will be held
here tomorrow to bond the City of
Vancouver for $3..0ou to take up 'out
standing warrants and some old sewer
bond..
it the bonds carry and are permitted
to run -0 years, as provided, t be in
terest alone will amount to 14:1,000. The
ity lias the privilege of paying at
the end of ten years, in which case
the interest will be $-1,000 and the
principal ooo.
The Pity Council has included a levy
of six mills for the coining year, which
will make the taxes for the city about
lt mills. If the bonds are defeated,
the Council will attempt to prune the
operating expenses still more, eo the
levy may be less than 16 mills.
Hy making a levy of six mills this
year to take up this indebtedness, the
levy ne,xt year will be about two mills,
which will take up the remainder and
the debt will be paid.
ir the bonds are carried, the interest
of Jl'IcO a year, with about a tenth of
the sum for sinking fund, the sum of
ti00 will have to be raised by taxa
tion for the next ten years.
Many are in favor of making a little
efiort next year and pay off the debt
and evade pajins possibly $42. 000 in
terest, which would be more than the
debt itself now is.

OI-YMPIA. Wash.. Sept. 13. (Spe
cial.) Adjutant - General Maurice
Thompson appeared before the Wash
ington Board of Equalization today,
asking an increase in the state mili
tary levy from eleven-huniredths to
one-fifth of a. mill to enable the state
to bear its part in National prepared
ness for defense. The indicated in
crease, if allowed, would provide the
next Legislature with a 500.000 fund,
double the amount available in the
past.
To illustrate the financial need. Gen
eral Thompson told the Board he had
been notified by the War Uepartment
that "Washington required to bring its
militia organization to full quota, nine
companies coast artillery, five field
batteries, one cavalry troop, two com
panies of engineers, one field hospital
and one ambulance company, all in
addition to present organizations.
Washington is short to this extent
already, and requirements certainly
will not be reduced, and probably will
be advanced by the coming Congress."
said General Thompson.
The Board took the request under
advisement, but Chairman Clausen,
State Auditor indicated opposition.

FARMERS HOLD BACK
Limited Orders for Wheat Are
Hard to Fill.
DEMAND AT GOING PRICES
General Selling Movement Xot Ex
pected While Markets Are in
Present Uncertain Condition.
- o Export Barley Demand.
There is a little demand for wheat in the
country, but dealers report it almost impos
sible to buy at going prices. The amount of
wheat wanted at present is limited, but
even the small orders can with difficulty be
filled. Wheat farmers. Judging from their
present attitude, seem determined to keep
their crops in their town possession and are.
no doubt, getting what financial accommo
dation they require, but their refusal to en
ter the market is keeping the volume of
trade in the Northwest at a low ebb.
It Is considered probable that October 1
will see a little more free selling in order
to meet harvest expenses, and November 1
may also bring out more wheat to settle
current bills, but nothing like a general
selling movement is expected while the
worlds wheat markets remain in the pres
ent uncertain condition.
In the meantime, there is no inducement
for buyers to. enter the market in anything
iiko ineir otu-tirae form. New export busi-
ness cannot be worked now on a satisfactory
basis and the condition of the flour trade
also keeps mill buyers quiet. The Califor
nia trade occasionally shows Interest in
xsortnern wheat, but for very small parcels.
The barley market Is affected, like the
wheat market, by a lack of export demand.
What foreign barley requirements will be
are not yet clear, and for the present the
nariey trade is in a waiting attitude.
Oats values are weighted down by the be
lief that there will be no export trade at all
in this cereal, such as- put prices up so
strongly last year. Farmers' offerings are
sufficient to keep the mills supplied, and
the demand, otherwise, is not great.
At the Merchants' Kxchange all lines were
inactive. Bids for October fortyfold were
reduced 2 cents and October Russian was
down 1 cent. Othefwlse, offers were un
changed from Saturday.

Crop In Germany ands Bohemia.
California wires received yesterday noted
the ears of 100 ba'.es of new Sacramento tiopn
at 10 cenla. There w as nothing doing in
the Oregon market.
An Interesting letter from a ileaier at
Prague, stated that the Bohemian crop will
be only half as large as last year's and that
the quality will be mixed. The same writer
estimated that the German crop would not
exceed 60 per cent of that of 1914, with the
quality uncertain.
.Sugar Will Be Lower Today.
A lO-ccnt reduction in refined sugar prices
will take effect in the local market this

The News in '
Advertising
A "'live wirB" who was getting
new- subscribers for a live news
paper like The Oregronian turned in
an unusually larcre number of aub
scrlptions at the end of one week.
"Good work." said hia chief. "How
did you do it?"
"Well." eaid the live solicitor. "I
showed them the great news service
we pave them and the interesting
special features, and then I talked
about the advertisements. It's sur
prising how interested the women
were in the advertisements. They
found real news in them every day."
So it is. The advertising in The
Oregronian ia one of the greatest
news departments.
