WHEAT AT DOLLAR
Mark Anticipated by Farmers
Has Been Reached.
COUNTRY BLUESTEM SALES
CInb Is Purchased at Interior
Points at Up to 95 Cents Trad
ing on Iarge Scale Jjocal
. Flour Prices Raised. ,
Dollar wheat, which the farmers In the
Tacific Northwest have ben confidently
expecting, made ls appearance yesterday.
This price was paid in the country for blue
gtem for the first time since the exciting
wheat boom days early In 1015. Club wheat
was also bought at sharply advancing rates,
lip to 05 cents being paid et country points.
These extreme Quotations were not gen
eral, but were reported from only a few
points. Other bids - sent into the Interior
were 2 to .3 cents lower than these prices.
Trading In the country was on a liberal
scale.
The market was strong. Influenced by the
abnormal bulge in the Chicago option mar
ket Bids at the Merchants Exchange
were advanced 3 cents over those of Tues
day, which put all Portland quotations at
or above the dollar point except red Rus
sian. In spite of Chicago's showing, wheat busi
ness for Eastern account was slower, as the
cash markets there did not follow the option
markets upward. Bids sent here by Eastern
mills and dealers were, consequently, out of
line with the new prices established In this
territory.
Barley and oats were sympathetically af
fected by the wheat strength and bids at
the exchange were advanced 60 cents.
Because of the higher cost of wheat, an
advance of i!0 cents a barrel in flour prices
was announced, to be effective this morn
ing. Tbe new quotation on patents will be
4o.40. . Export grades are quoted at $.60.
In the past month flour prices have ad
vanced CO cents a barrel In this market.
It is not In the United States and Can
ada alone that crops have suffered. Broom
hatl summarizes the foreign situation as
follows:
France Complaint of .unfavorable develop
- ments continue to come to hand from the
main wheat area. Acreage is lighter and
growth not favorable. Weeds and vermin
damaging. In the south outlook better.
Outlook for oats good. Import needs will
be large.
Germany Harvest has commenced, with
weather favoring. Some reports are opti
mistic. Invaded area is reported as pro
ducing liberally.
Russia Weather is now favorable and
crops improving. Acreage will be short and
yield under normal. Reserves are heavy
and prices low, and this discouraged farm
ers. There is small prospects of but very
moderate clearances during the season.
United Kingdom Weather is now hot and
forcing and crops show an improvement.
Bulgaria Our agent reports harvesting
is good with weather favoring. Yield will
too over normal.
Austria-Hungary Latest reports from
neutral sources Bhow harvest better than
last year.
Australia Weather Is now favorable and
crops improving. Acreage will be i!0 to 2a
per cent under last year. Holders are very
reserved and carryover will be liberal, as
a protective measure,
India There Is more willingness shown
to, offers; but actual clearances are very
light, as freights are limited.
Spain Weather favorable and good har-
rest prospects are maintained.
Denmark. Crops are about an average.
Importation will be liberal.
Sweden. Crops better than last year, but
very late. Imports will be liberal.
Terminal receipts, in cars, were reported
by the Merchants' Exchange as follows:

FAlX GRAIN" HARVEST HAS BEGUN
"Wheat and Barley Crops Turn Out Better
Than Expected.
Following is a summary of the crop con
ditions In Oregon for the week ending August
3. as reported to the local office of the
Weather Bureau by special correspondents
throughout the states
Another week of excellent growing
weather has caused all crops to make splen
lid advancement. k
The barley and Fall wheat harvest is be
coming general, and both crops are turning
out better than expected some weeks ago.
Spring wheat .and oats are heading and
filling nicely. Corn has improved greatly,
but this crop Is still backward on account of
the previous cool weather.
The bulk of the second crop of alfalfa
3ias been secured In fine condition, and the
third crop has made a good start. Some
hay was slightly damaged -by rain in the
northwestern portion of the state, but else
where haying proceeded under favorable
weather conditions. The hay crop which,"
In view of the previous wet weather, ought
to have been unusually large, has not turned
out "so well as expected on account of the
cool Spring, which retarded growth, and
later a large amount was bady damaged
by vain after being cut. The second crop
of alfalfa yielded better than the first, and
altogether the hay prospects, while not up
to expectations earlier in the season, are
fairly satisfactory.
Heavy frost on two mornings badly dam
aged potatoes In Klamath and Lake coun
ties, and fears are entertained that these
frosts also injured grain, which In that
locality is now in bloom. Elsewhere potatoes
and gardens are doing splendidly.
Fruit, also, is making good progress, and
new apples are now In the market from
some of the early sections of the state.

ALL FKCIT CROPS WILL BE LIGHTER
Government Estimates Decrease in Leading
Lines.
The 1916 fruit crop will be below that of
1015 In virtually every class. It was predicted
by the United States Bureau of Crop Es
timates. Especially marked will be the de
cline in the peach crop, if present indica
tions are borne out. In this line the output.
It Is estimated, will fall off 11.000.000 bush
els for the year, the Government experts
placing the probable figures at 42.123,000
bushels.
The National yield in apples, the foremost
fruit crop, will decline, says the department,
from a total of 76,670,000 barrels In the 1915
season the 72.5S1.0OO for the present season.
Loss is also expected in the pear crop,
the estimate being 10,703,000 bushels, a loss
of 500,000 bushels.
The grape outlook is disappointing, a drop
of about 3,000,000 bushels from last year's
figures of 85,400,000 bushels being antici
pated. Wenatchee Apricots Arrive.
A car or Wenatchee apricots arrived yes
terday and the best sold at $L10. ' Oregon

automobile stocks, evidently tbe outcome
reoent -happenings in that industry, was the
overshadowing feature of today'a listless
market. Gross declines of S to almost S
points were registered by Baker, Maxwell
and Willys-Overland. with sympathetic
heaviness in accessories.
Mexicans also denoted further liquidation
on the reported decree of the de facto
government of that country, imposing added
burdens on foreign owned concessions. Mei
lean Petroleum made ah extreme decline
of points, with as much for Texas Com
pany and almost 2 points for American
Smelting, despite tha declaration of another
"extra" dividend on that atock.
Other weak or heavy specialties Included
United States Industrial Alcohol, which fell
4 points with 1 to 8 points for soma of
the sugar, munitions and equipments ana
4 points for Bethlehem Steel on the first
transaction In a week. Coppers were dull
and zinc shares surrendered their gains of
tne preceding day.
Rails were strong during the forenoon
under lead of Union Pacific, but this ad
vantage was lost later on the heaviness of
Canadian Pacific and Reading. Crop ad
vices and tha labor situation wera factors In
this quarter of the list.
Shipping shares, notably United Fruit,
were unusually active and higher for a time,
but lost ground with fertilizers on profit-
taking. Total sales amounted to Sao. 000
shares.
