WHEAT BIDS RAISED
White Gradss 2 to 3 Cents
. Higher at Session.
CHICAGO RISE FOLLOWED
Txporters Bclice Xo Benefit Mill
Ite&ult From Anglo-French Loan,
as Demand Is I, nek in and
Freights Are JToo High.
Tliere waa a marked improvement in local
wheat prices yesterday, bids for white grades
at the Merchants Exchange being raised
to 3 cents. The market in the West was
cumulated by the advance at Chicago, which
was caused by rumors that .Eastern bankers
are reaching a settlement with the Anglo
French financial commission in the matter
f the billion-dollar loan.
Tt is conceded that the succesp of the loan
ivtll stimulate wheat prices in the Ameri
can markets, but grain men hi re are not so
ure it will help trade. What ails the mar
ket more than anything else in the Pacific
JsTorthwest Is the inability of exporters to
sea reheat In England. This lack of de
mand, coupled with the abnormally high
freight rates, makes business at present im
possible at current prict-s. The Northwestern
market, with yesterday's advance, is fig
ured to bo fully 5 cents above the export
parity.
This advance w as brought about by a
limited demand which, it was said, does
not represent new .bueinc ss. Country sellers
have been showig more disposition for a
lew days past to meet buyers, but it is
though likely that the advance that has
Just taken place will have the effect of
Checking sales in the interior.
At the Merchants Exchange session bids
lor bluestem were raised 2 cents and forty
lohl and club bids were advanced 3 cents.
Offers for red wheat ranged from un
changed to 2 cents over Wednesday's. There
was a spread of 3Va to 0 cents between
buyers' and sellers vlewa and no business
resulted at the session. A moderate busi
ness was reported as transacted in the
country. ,
Prices for new-crop' patent flour have not
l.cm definitely fixed. Some of the millers
are talking $4.00 or 14.70, but it is said no
contracting Is being done yet by tho lars
buyers. Old-crop patents are quoted nom
inal at if ft. and while the stock lasts will
command tho ueual premium over new-crop
prices.
Terminal receipts, in cars, were reported
by the Merchants Exchange as follows:

AT STANDSTILL
FARM AVOKK IS
Owing to Dryness, Little Plowing Can Be
is a summary of the crop con
ditions In Oregon for the week, as reported
to the local office of the weather bureau
by special correspondents throughout the
state:
Cool weather obtained during most of the
past -week, and there was considerable
cloudiness. Local showers fell during the
latter part of the -week, but tney were not
sufficient to help Fall plowing and seed
ing, although they assisted in reducing the
danger from forest fires to a minimum.
Threshing continued and most sections
report yields nearly, if not quite, up to the
original estimates. Hoppicking is going
rapidly on and prune picking and drying
are in progress. Corn Is ripening and a good
yield is expected. The weather was very
lavorablo for late fruit.
Krost formed in eastern counties the end
of the week, but did little reported dam
age. Farm work is practically at a standstill
on account of the dryness, as little plowing
can' be done, and the sowing of grain in
most localities Is Impracticable at this time.
The ranges are in very poor condition,
many water holes, streams and springs are
dry. and Fall grazing In some eastern coun
ties is so poor that many cattlemen .are
bringing their stock in for Winter. Roads
are becoming badly rutted and deep with
dust. Rain is much needed.
Seasonable fruits are In the local mar
kets In abundance, and the quality is good.
MORE INTEREST IN APPLE MARKET
Active Season Will Opeu When Soft Fruits
Are Out of Way.
Apples are selling a little more freely,
but the movement will not be active until
peaches and other soft ftuits are off the
market. Higher prices are asked in the
shipping districts and at present there is a
deadlock between jobbers and interior
sellers.
Peaches were in moderate supply and
firmly held. Grapes of all kinds sold well,
and casabas were also in . good demand.
There was a fair trade in cantaloupes.
Prices of fruit in general were unchanged.
NEW Y03K HOI MARKET ADVANCES
No Business Reported Vet in Pacific Coast
Sections. ,
No business was reported in any of the
Taciflc Coast hop markets yesterday. De
mand Is lacking and growers are not yet
seeking buyers.
The New York market is firm and
higher, the prevailing prices of 3913 states
being 22 to 2S cents. When the quality of
the cheaper grades of New York hops is
considered, the 22 -cent price quoted there
would indicate that choice Oregons should
command a better figure than some of
the buyers here are talking of.
Poultry Receipts Are Large.
Poultry receipts were again liberal. Tho
demand was chiefly for small Springs and
large hens. Prices generally were un
changed except in the case of hens, which
were half a cent lower. Dressed meats
w ore steady.
There were no changes in the egg or
butter markets, x In both lines the under
tone was firm.
Hide Market Is Lower.
k The hide market is weaker and quota
tions are half a cent to a cent lower. Pres
ent prices are likely to hold good for the
next two or three weeks at least. Tallow
is in very poor demand and only the best
will bring 43 cents. Sheep pelt are in
good demand at former prices. Caacara
bark Is very hard to move and only the
choicest lots will now bring 4 cents deliv
ered at Portland.

OFFERINGS ARE SMALLER
Stwk Trading oT Moderate Volume,
With I'rices Irregular War
Specialties Are Still Most
Prominent feature.
NEW YORK. Sept. 36. Stocks moved ten
tatively again today to a moderate volume of
operations In which, specialties fared to the
usual large extent. Trading waa a trifle
broader, however, in that it embraced a
greater numbor of Issues than have recently
been quoted; Forenoon dealings showed
numerous losses ranging from one to two
points, with more pronounced reactions in
the war issues. This condition was partly
readjusted later in t Jks session, when prices
hardened.
Early unsettlement was mainly caused by
thM heavy feeling of United States Steel,
which reassumed Its leadership of the list.
Steel sold off to 74'i, recovered to 74, ana
closed at 74 a net Io8 of Bethlehem
Steel moved in a radius of 12 points and
closed at :t41, a net loss of five. The pre
ferred stock, selling ex-dividend of 34 per
cent, made a maximum advance of 3 2 .
Crucible Steel was under prssur closing
at 92 i, a loss of 1 iz. General Motors was
stronp. r Is Inn 9 to 22:1, and Westing houstv
Allis-Chalmers and American Locomotive
constituted the other active features of that
group.
Railway share continuid to lag far be
hind the specialties and industrials. There
appeared to be little or no inquiry for these
issues from speculative sources. While in
vestment demand remains light, despite the
favorable crop prospects. Minnea polls &, St.
Louis issues, which broke precipitately yes
terday on news of the illness of the chief
executive, retrieved their losses In part. Kork
Island was heavy in the absence -of definite
developments concerning impending inter
est payments. Total sales amounted to 400,
0OO shares.
All parts of the foreign exchange mar
ket were stronger today, sterling improving
chiefly on the smaller offerings of bills,
while francs, lires and marks manifested a
better tendency. London's recent gold ship
ments to this country were reflected In the
Bank of London's loss during the week of
almost $19,000,000.
Bonds weofi Irregular. Total palps, par
value, aggregated $2.455.0oo. United States
bonds were unchanged on call.

CROP PROSPECTS GAIN
FIRTHKR IMPROVEMENT IN CON.
DITIO.V OF CEREALS.
Record Yield of 'Wheat tit Now A
(iiired Corn Ilcnrrita by Au
Biit Men t her.
WASHINGTON. Sept.-1. Material gains
in the prospects for bumper cereal crops are
disclosed In the Department or Agriculture's
monthly crop estimates published today.
The department says:
General crop prospects on September 1 In
the United states were favorable, being
somewhat above the average. The corn
crop improved slightly during August, es
pecially in Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri.
It went back In condition in tt northern
most slates and in the important states of
Iowa and Illinois. The forecast of total
production, 2.9S5.0O0.O0O bushels. Is 67,000.
000 more than forecast a month ago, and
312.000,000 bushels more than the final es
timate of last year. Tho quantity forecast
at present has b.,en exceeded In but one
year, namely 1912, when the estimate was
3,125.000,000 bushels.
Xhe Spring wheat prospects improved ma
terially during August. the forecast on
September 1 being 322.000.000 biushels,
which is 15,000.000- more than the August
forecast and 116,000,000 buehels more than
the final estimaie of last year.
Applying the present forecast of Spring
wheat to the estimate made last month in
Winter wheat production makes a total pro
duction of wheat Indicated of 9Sl.000.oo0
bushels, by far the largest amount ever
produced in the United States compared
with 891,000.000 bushels last year Itself a
record and 6SS.9O0.000, the average of the
past five months. J
The oats forecast of September 1. namelv
1.408. 000.000, was slightly higher than the
August forecast, and is close to tho record
crop of 1.41S.000.O0O bushels estimated In
1912. Prospects are most favorable in the
most northern states of Wisconsin. Minne
sota and North Dakota, where conditions
are above normel. A year ago the crop was
estimated at 1,141.000.000 bushels.
The Weather Bureau Issued this state
ment: Owing to the generally backward state of
this year's corn crop In many of the north
ern but important growing sections of the
belt, there Is danger of injury to the crop
by killing frosts, the occurrence of which
may be expected at any time. It is. there
fore. Important that every effort possible
be made to secure good seed for rvsxt year's
crop. Where any last year's corn is left it
should be gone over and the best ears
saved for seed. Moreover, as corn matures
unevenly It Is possible to secure seed from
the early ears before the rest of the crop
is matured.
YAMHILL HOP YIELD HALF

M'MIXN VILLE, Or.. Sept. 10. (Special.
With the greater portion of the meager
crop of hops in Yamhill County this y-ar
under cover, a SO per cent yield is indicated.
W. L. Hembrea, owner of a splendid hop
yard near McMinnville, reports that his
yard of 13 acres that last year produced
14.000 pounds, has yielded only tiOOO. This
was the best out of four yard picked by the
same crew.
The Tom Rogers yard, that last year yield
ed 18.000 pounds, will make about S00U
pounds. Other yards have run in about the
same fashion. The George Hall yard, near
Ballston, which usually requires two weeks
to harvest, was cleaned in five days.
A Willamette River bottom yard, ownea
by Walter "Kirk wood, had nine kilns this
year, compared with 14 in 1014.
The old Schumate yard, near Whlteson,
managed by John Hackett, Jr., has 18 acres
of hops, all sprayed early. It ts being
picked and will produce perhaps 75 per cent
of last year's yield, according to hop ex
perts visiting the field.

SALEM. Or.. Sept. 16. (Special.)
Flax acrease next season will be lim
ited by the State Board of Control to

members of the Board. Of the $j0,0OJ

ployment of convicts and encourage
ment of the flax industry all but about

at SHS'ic and May at a09c. - Corn
gained a shade to lc. and oata c to
lffilc. In provisions the outcome was
12 c to 27 c net decline.
September wheat felt the tightening or
prices more severely than waa the case
regarding other options. The reason was
that there seemed to be no limit to the
demand for track lots of wheat available
for spot delivery, and that arrivals here
remained unusually small for this season of
the year. The actual amount of cash con
tract wheat In store in Chicago today was
only 24.000 bushels.
Corn was helped upward by the strength
of wheat. At first, however, the market
was easy, according to the warmer temper
atures prevailing.
In the oats trade wet weather, delaying
threshing anil shipping, was a source of
firmness as soon as other cereals turned
upgrade. Country offerings were small.
Provisions went lower In sympathy with
a de-llne in the hog market. Announce
ment that the British government had con
fiscated most of the long-Interned cargoes
of meats and lard had no apparent effect
upon the market here.
