CATJTORVIA HAY GOES TO MANILA
Government Places Second Large Order at
San Francisco.
The California hay market has been stim
ulated by export business. The weekly mar
ket letter of Scott, Wagner & Miller says:
Export trade is fairly good, the. Govern
ment having placed an order In this market
for 000 tons of hay for shipment to Ma
nila, which, together with 2500 tons placed
a few weeks ago, will have quite an effect
upon the export market, which is very
firm. Inquiries for large quantities for other
outside points are beinp received, but up
to date we cannot note the placing of any
orders.
'"Receipts of hay for the past week were
2.V4 tons, a slight Increase over last week
of 2S30 tons. Most of the hay arriving is
coming out of tho warehouses upon which
season's storage has had to be paid. This
necessitates higher prices being asked and
therefore the market has a very firm tone,
with consumers paying these advanced fig
ures to obtain their requirements."

CHICAGO, Oct. 18 Huge receipts at

promised continued heavy movement in the

good deal today to denress the wheat mar-
ket here. Prices closed unsettled, 22c

What little reaction from the lowest level
of the day took place in the wheat market
appeared to be due to the smallneas of
gain in the Lnlted States visible supply.
The seaboard aent word that 1,000.000
bushels had been purchased for export, but
that almost the entire amount was from
Manitoba.
Oorn receded In value as a result of the
break in wheat. The improved weather
tended also to stimulate selling.
Oats followed the bearish lead of other
grain. Cash houses unloaded freely.
Commission houses went to the bear side
of the provision market. The incentive
seemed to be the fact that an early ad
vance in the price of hog-s bad gradually
disappeared.

'No Oregon Girls for Me,
Writes Bride Seeker. '
Fred Braekmas, of Warren, Writes
to Postmaster at St. Louis in
Search for Helpmeet.
WHOEVER thought there was a man
right here in Oregon who couldn't
find an Oregon girl to his liking. Every
body else knows that Oregon girls are
beyond comparison with those of any
other state whatsoever, but Fred Brook
man, down at Warren. Or., doesn't
share in this opinion. "No more Ore
gon girls for me," he recently wrote.
One girl who read his letter suggested
that it might be a case of sour grapes,
but there are no data available to
prove this is true. Indeed. Mr. Brook
man, in his letter, intimates that it
would be easy enough for him to get
a wife right at home if he only would
say the word.
Mr. Brookman says that his mind
has been made up all the time to marry
an Eastern girl. Just who she is
doesn't seem to matter. His letter,
seeking assistance in the matter of
selection, was written to Colin M.
Selph. postmaster at St. Louis, Mo., and
Mr. Selph being willing to do what he
can as an aid to cupid, has had it pub
lished in a St, Louis paper. Here is
tho letter:
Warren, Or.. Oct. S. 11B. Mr. Post
master: Dear Sir 1 am going to write
few lines to ask a favor of you. You will
think It funny, but I will explain. I would
like to know if there Is any young widow
or girl that would like an Oregon man for
a husband. The neighbors here, wanted to
know why I did not get married and I told
them when I got married I was going to
have an Eastern wife, and I am going to
make my word good if I can. 1 am 28 years
old. weight 170 pounds, dark brown hair and
have a small farm. Would like a widow or
girl about my age and fair looking. I have
been married and wife being dead, and no
more Oregon girls for me. If you can do
anything for me I will pay you for your
trouble. Answer soon, xours truly.

NEW YORK, Oct. 18. Higher prices were
