THE MORNING OREGONIAX, THURSDAY, JUNE 29, 1916. 13 CROP INCREASE BIG Some Dealers Estimate Wheat x Gain at 25 Per Cent. DUE TO RECENT RAINFALL Probable Sftpply of 65,000,000 to 70,000,000 Bushels to Bo Han dled by Xortli western Trade in Coming Season. 3'h wheat market -was easier yesterday, with bids at tbe Merchants Exchange gen erally 1 to 2 cents lower. There was noth ing in the. situation or in sight to encourage buyers. Chicago closed at a decline and operations with. California -were out of the Question. The improvement in the North western crop prospect was perhaps the lead ing factor in . promoting- weakness. Dealers ideas vary as to the extent of the gain In the crop by reason of the re cent rains, somo placing the increase as high as" -5 per cent over the estimates made a few weeks ago. In the opinion of the Portland trade, the coming crop will be between 55.000.000 andit.000,00O bushels. ; A leading exporter declared yesterday his belief that 10,000,000 'bushels of wheat will be carried Into the new crop. iHis figures ! show that- about 20000,000 "bushels were' hipped East by rail. Water shipments, were SO.000,000 (bushels, and with an allowance ; of 20,000,000 bushels for home consumption he estimates the past crop at fully 80, 000,000 bushels in the three states. With j the carry-over of 10,000,000 bushels the Northwest will have a supply of 5,000,000 to 70,000,000 bushels to dispose of in the , coming season, and the prospects for moving It promptly cannot be considered by any means bright. The oats situation was unchanged, yes terday and the market was Quiet. Barley was also unchanged. Terminal receipts, in cars, rere reported by the Merchants' ICxchange as follows: Wheat. Bar. FU.

There Is a fair movement of wool in the Boston market and the strength of prices shows no abatement. Commenting on the ituation the Transcript says: "While manufacturers do not appear to have responded very readily to the strong upward movement of wool prices, this has not discouraged holders In the slightest de gree. The past week has given Indications of more interest In new wools, and the low way In which the new-clip season has started In the East has led to no suspen sion of buying In Western primary markets at top prices. A. fair business Is being done here and the upward trend of values continues. Great Interest Is manifested In foreign developments, though high prices In British or Colonial markets can have no direct effect here. "With all of the allies allowed to com pete at the Sydney sales, . prices were ad vanced to sensational figures. Cablegrams differ as to the actual range of prices paid, but apparently good .combing wools were taken at a. figure which would mean a clean cost here of 95 to Of Cents, with topmaklng grades at 90 cents and Inferior at 83 to 87 cents. Darriver mark, scoured combing fleeces, bone dry, sold on the closing day at 44H pence,' which would mean fully a dollar, a pound landed here. Scoureds were old at 94 cents for combing and 89 cents for carding, landed here, later advancing to the higher figure named above. "Both the Queensland and Sydney cata logues were offered during the Sydney sales. It Is understood, however, that some of the . wools which it was intended to Include ware withdrawn.". RAINFALL IS BENEFICIAL TO CROPS Spring and Xall Wheat Have Made Satis factory Progress. Following Is a summary of the crop con ditions In Oregon for the week ending June 27, 301j6, as reported to the local oiiice of the Weather Bureau by special correspond ents throughout the state: Unusually low temperatures prevailed during- the week and there were several showery days. The rainfall was heaviest in . Umatilla County and it was very beneficial, specially to Spring wheat and pastures. Both Spring and Fall wheat, barley, oats and rye have made satisfactory progress and these crops are now in better condition than expected several weeks ago. Corn is very backward and the nights were too cool for it to make much growth. This crop badly needs warmer weather. Potatoes, sugar beets and garden truck look well, but they are not so far advanced In growth as usual at this time of the year. Pasturage is excellent end. stock is in fine Condition. A small amount of alfalfa and clover that had been cut could not be properly cured on account of the rains, and some of the hay crops are getting over-ripe, but they cannot be harvested until the weather becomes more settled. Apples, prunes and apricots are doing well. The strawberry season Is drawing to & close and ev small crop of cherries is coming into the market. EGOS FIRMER WITH BETTER QUALITY Butter Market Is Weak and Extras Are Quarter Cent Lower. The egg market was strong at the produce exchange, with sales of case count at 214 cents. Trade eggs sold at 19 cents. The egg demand, has been stimulated by the bet ter quality of the stock now coming In. Butter was weak, with, extras selling a quarter cent lower at 25 cents, and prime firsts at 24 cents. Firsts offered at 24 cents, with 2 cents ibid. There were sales of dairy butter at 21 cents. Oregon cream brick cheese was offered at 17 cents, with 16 cents bid. Triplets were offered at 15 cents, with lo cents bid. The poultry market was steady. Hens were offered at 14 cents, with 13 cents bid. For ducks 13 cents was asked and 12 cents bid. FIRST FREESTONE PEACHES ARRIVE Raspberries Are More Plentiful and Lower, Currants in Market. Raspberries were in larger supply yes terday and sold lower at- $1.50 and. $1.75 crate. Loganberries were quoted at $1.50 and 1.5. The demand for strawberries as light and prices ranged from .75 cents to $1.40. Currants were in fair supply and offered at $1 and $1J5 a. crate. - The first freestone peaches of the Early St. John variety arrived from California and sold at $1.23 a box. Other peaches were quoted at 75 cents to $1. Canta loupes and melons were unchanged. Bean Prices Are Nominal.

S cents on bayous. 8 cents on-Llmas ana 7 cents on Mexican red. These prices are more or less nominal. . Rains Hurt Bouglas Cherries. ROSEBURQ, Or,, June" 28. (Special.) The cold rains of the past few days hav damaged the cherries materially in, Jjougiafl County,- according tft reports received here today. Some, of the growers were fortu nate, however, in marketing their- product prior to the rains. . Bings, which are the favorite cherry grown in this section, brought 10 cents a pound, while the more common cherries sold for 5 cents a pound. Rain Helps Keunewlck Wheat. KEN NE WICK, Wash., June 28. (Spe cial.) The abundant rains of the past few days have put new life into the crop. Wheat "in the Horse Heaven country is looking fine. With the exception of a few localities there will be a good crop this year, although not nearly so good as last year's. The early rains and the cool weather has brought out in fine shape the grain that was not injured by the extreme cold weather of last Winter. Bank Clearings.

CHERRIES NOT DAMAGED i Picking and Shipping: Continues In Tho Dalles District. THE DALLES, Or., June 28. (Spo cial.) "With tho heavy rains contlnu Ins through tns night a few of tho riper cherries have burst here. Fruit growers, however, do not anticipate any heavy damage to tho crop unless the rains should be succeeded by hot sunshine. Pickles and shipping Is con tinuing in spite of weather conditions, as growers are anxious to set their fruit off the trees. While a few more pickers can be used, there is no serious shortage In the local labor market. The IJbby cannery has received an other par of cherries from Lewlston, Idaho, and one from Mosler, Or, MEXICAN OIL DROPS Stock Loses Seventeen Points in Past Fortnight., ENTIRE LIST SAGS LOWER Prices Yield More From Inertia Than From Actual liquidation. Further Break in Exchange on Germany; Bonds Irregular. NEW TORK. June 2S. Much of the ground recovered from, yesterday's weak market was surrendered today and in some instances more beside. Trading was apa thetic except for the first hour, when some semblance of activity and firmness was maintained. For the balance of the session, the list sagged slowly to lower levels, prices yielding more from sheer inertia than actual liquidation. The Mexican situation was again the over shadowing feature, private advices received by banking interests suggested an early dec laration of hostilities. Mexican petroleum was the only Issue of its special class to be seriously affected, recording an extreme loss of 4 points at 88, making a shrinkage of 17 points in the past fortnight. American Smelting lost only 2 points and Greene Cananea copper mad e an actual advance of more than a point. Motor stocks and equipments as well as munitions, with few exceptions, were 1 to 3 points.-lower on comparatively light offer ings, but coppers and shipping issues were firm when not subject to pressure. Railroads, afforded the basis of early sta bility, such Issues as Reading and L'nion Pacific showing some strength with an ad vance of li points in New York, Ontario & Western on resumption of dividend payments after a lapse of almost three years. This was offset, however, by postponement of action of the common dividend of the Pitts burg, Cincinnati. Chicago & St. Louis, Pan handle road, that stock breaking 5 points in the final dealings. Total sales amounted to 245.000 shares. A further break in marks to 73, a decline of 34 from the middle of the month, was the significant feature of the exchange market. Bonds were irregular on nominal dealings. Total sales, par value, aggregated $2,280,000. T-nited States bonds were unchanged on call, but sales of coupon Ss and registered 4s made at declines of and per cent, re spectively. CLOSING SXOCK QUOTATIONS. . Closing Sales. Hljrh.
