touching $1.14 a bushel; club went to
$1.12, and fortyfold to $1.11.

of the available wheat in this vicinity,
for those who are holding expect to see
it go higher.
Barley and oats owners also are pre
ferring to risk good profits for the pos
sibility of getting more. Barley climbed
to $33 a ton and oats to $31. The boost
followed the rapid rise in Portland.

Old Sailing Craft.

portation of wheat this year, accord
ing to advices received here and the
famous old flipper bark Antiope has
Deen nxea to load a cargo at Timaru
for South America. This, it is said,
will be the first wheat cargo shiDDed
from New Zealand, to an oversea port
tor many years.
The scarcity of bottoms is indicated
by the fact that a vessel like the

should be booked for handling wheat.
The Antiope was sold in 1914 to one
of the New Zealand coal companies to
be converted into a hulk. .

tne f ox it was ascertained that the
cost of fixing her up would be almost
prohibitive.
The Fox is a vessel of 164 tons. She
may now be purchased and put in com
mission as a carrier, although her size
would greatly limit her usefulness in
that respect.

Tenders for Oats and Hay Are
Opened by Quartermaster.
PORTLAND FIRMS BIDDERS
Offers for Wheat Are Unchanged,
Xotwlthstandliiff Decline in Chi
cago Market Advance) in
Flour Prices Postponed.
Bids were opened at the local office of
the Quartermaster, United States Army,
yesterday morning, for supplying the Gov
ernment with 8000 tons of oata for ship
ment to the Philippines. The specifications
called for double-sacked oata, all graded
and cleaned, and for delivery throughout
the year.
Bids were submitted by two Portland
firms. The Albers Bros. Milling Company
offered to furnish the entire amount at
S35.40 a ton, and the Northern Grain A
Warehouse Company bid (36.40 on the full
quantity.
Tenders were also received by the Quar
termaster at Seattle, where the Albers com
pany bid $35.40 and also offered to furnish
3000 tons of Montana oata at a schedule of
prices f. o. b., Montana points. There wero
two or three bids by Montana firms on 1500
tons ot Montana oats at slightly lower
prices.
On the call for 8000 tons of hay. a Se
attle bid was submitted for timothy at 97
cents a hundred, while another dealer of
fered 6000 tons of wheat hay at 87 cents.
All the bids will be forwarded to Wash
ington, D. C, for final decision.
The wheat market was strong yesterday.
notwithstanding the decline at Chicago. In
the country bids was about the same as
late Monday afternoon, farmers being of
fered $1.19 for bluestem, $1.15 for fortyfold
and $1.12 for club. There was no rush to
sell at these prices and the supply offered
was decidedly under the demand.
At the Merchants' Exchange the, presence
of a local bull was responsible for advances
of 2 to 4 cents In wheat bids, $2 In oats bids
and $1 in barley bids.
There was no change in the local flour
situation. One Portland mill has raised Its
flour price to $6.20 and another to $8.40.
while a third mill is still offering to sell on
a $0 basis, and as long as it does. It is en
abled to hold the general market down to
this level. The time seems near at hand,
however, when an all around flour advance
will ha,ve to be recorded.
Commenting on the course of the Chicago
wheat market, a news bulletin. Issued by
Renskorf, Lyon & Co.. says:
"That the market should rule exceedingly
nervous after what has occurred la per
fectly natural; yet we consider It only a
foretaste of what Is yet to come. With the
confirmatory advices being dally received
as to the short yields Indicated for the
United States and Canada and with Euro
pean crop outlook and the practical tying
up of supplies In the Southern hemisphere
by scarcity of freight room, we think a
frenzied condition in the wheat markets
must follow. The world has started on Its
absorption policy, action which never takes
less than four or five months for Its ful
fillment. After a 45-cent advance profit
taking caused a quick recession of 12 cents
and leaves prices ready for their next
legitimate upward move. We believe in very
high prices."
The visible wheat supply In the United
Kingdom Increased 330,000 bushels this
week.
Foreign crop conditions are summarized
by Broomhall as follows:
United Kingdom Harvesting is making
good progress In early districts and Improve
ment In wheat is confirmed. Recent rains
benefited fodders and did no harm to cereala.
France Harvest well advanced. It is be
lieved that wheat deficit will be smaller
than earlier expected. Outlook for barley
and oats is good.
Germany All advices point to a good yield
of all grain.
Russia Official advices are to the effect
that yield of wheat will be good and other
grain large. , Harvesting Is general with
weather favoring.
Argentina Beneficial rains have fallen.
Wheat business Is enlarging. Larger corn
exports are expected aoon.
Australia Weather and crop advices are
more favorable. Ninety vessels have been
chartered to move wheat.
India Monsoon has Improved the gen
eral outlook for seeding. Wheat sales to
exporters have further Increased.
Italy Latest threshing returns are satis
factory. Drought continues to damage corn.
Spain and North Africa Outurn reports
are good.
Balkan States Weather and crop advices
are generally favorable.

BUYING SUGAR
Cause ot Recent Decline In Prices in This
Country.
The recent decline in the price of sugar
has been largely due to the action 'of the
entento powers In discontinuing the pur
chase of sugar In this country and Cuba.
Great Britain has been buying Java sugar
paid for with treasury bills and Dutch ex
change has Improved, going in England's
favor. During July Java sent 122,000 tons
to Europe; 0000 to Vancouver, B. C, and
93.000 to Asiatic ports. Great Britain will
also get most of the Mauritius crop, but this
will not be available for consumption in
the United Kingdom until November or
December, and before that time both Eng
land and France may be forced to re
enter the market In this country. The
stock of sugar In Cuba Is decreasing, being
now 445.829 tons. This in the face of the
fact that recently exports to Europe have
been very light. Thus far the weather has
been very favorable for the growing of
the 1816-17 Cuban crop. Renskorf. Lyon
& Co.. of New York, say:
"While there has been enough of a decline
to permit wholesale grocers to cut their
prices a little, there is no chance ot sugar
going down much as long as the war lasts.
and if the bill now before Congress is passed
with the "anti-dumping clause" it will
tend to hold prices when peace cornea In
the past It ras been at times possible to
purchase sugar in this country cheaper
than the sale price for consumption In the
producing countries, this being brought
about by bounties and cartels, if the pend
ing measure becomes a law this will not
be possible after the war."
POTATO CROP IS ABOUT AVERAGE
Farlfle Coast and North Atlantic States Will
Have More Than Last Year.
Potato crop prospects in the United States
are summarized in the Government month
ly crop report as follows:
The August 1 condition of the potato crop
forecasts about an average production, tak
ing the ITnlted States as a whole. The fore
cost Is 36 '.000,000 b ishels, which is 5.000,000
less than the July 1 forecast, but 5,000.000
more than last year's production and 3.0O0..
000 more than the average of the preceding
flv.-- years.
During July prospects Improved moder
ately In the North Atlantic States and the
Pacific Coast States, but declined in most
ot the Central States, where there has been
insufficient rainfall and abundance of po
tato bugs. The crop in the North Atlantic
States Is not likely to be particularly large,
although somewhat larger than last year's
short crop. The same might be said of the
Michigan and Wlsccnsln prospecta In most
other Central States, from Ohio to Nebraska,
the Indications are for moderately smaller
yields than last year.
In the Pacific Coast sections prospects are
for somewhat better yields than last year.
Potat- prices declined during the past month
but continue higher tran usual, the aver
ago for the United States on August 1 being
95.4 cents a bushel, compared with 56.3 cents
a year ago. The foreign trade In potatoes
is seldom more than 2.000,000 or 3,000,000
bushels insignificant in comparison with
the production.
Later in the season the Bureau of Crop
Estimates will estimate for the first time
the production of potatoes in the United
Ststcs classified by times of harvesting and
disposing of the crop, so as to show what
portion of the crop is "early potatoes and
what portion is "late."
TO GRANT DIVERSION PR1V1LGE
Northwestern Frultmen will Be Benefited
hy Grand Trunk Ruling.
Fruit shippers In the Northwest will wel
come news which has Just been given out
by F. L. Norman, general agent of the
Grand Trunk Railway at Seattle, to the
effect that his company will publish, effec
tive as soon as possible, the privilege for
diversion of fruit shipments after arrival
at destination on their lne.
California shippers have been permitted
to divert shipments originating in their
state, after arlval et destination on the
Grand Trunk Ralway and have the through
rate to final destination protected, while
snippers of the Northwestern states were
denied the right to divert to any point
beyond, after arrival at destination without
Demg compelled to ray a local rate from
point of diversion to final destination.
This decision should be of great benefit
to shippers who export to Eastern Canadian'
points reached by the Grand Trunk Railway.

THRESHING IS NOW UNDER WAY
Linn County I arniers Say Rain Does but
Little Damage.
ALBANY. Or.. Aug. 22. (Special.) After
a tew days delay because of rain, threshing
ontl'lts In this section ot the state, have re
sumed work. Unless more rain comes the
crops will be harvested successfully. Farm
ers report but little damage from the rain.
Thowarm weather of the past few days
has -ripened Spring grain rapidly and farm
ers are busy cutting it. The lateness of the
Fall grain and the fact that Spring grain
is. in many rases, ready for threshing,
means no break In the threshing season.
