THE MORNING OREGOXIAN. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1917. 10 AIM S3EE0S FIRST Terms Under Which Govern ment Buys Canned Foods. OFFICIAL' PRICES NAMED "Dale of Final Settlement Set For Martl to October 1 5 No 'Twos" Will Be Accepted on Tomatoes. The ee-operatlv committee on caused foods of th committe on supplier of the "U'ar Industries Board has Issued a bulletin iinouncln the terms under which It Is buying and paying- for canned goods of the current pack. By this it appears that the Government prices, based on returns filed by the Cunt Accounting Bureau of the Federal Trade Commission, will be substantially as follows : Peas Kancy $1 .20 Standard , , ........................... 1.1 -I S&esns Fancy ......................... 1. " Standard l.lu Kxira standard fLUO 1.3d iiailons, extra standard 0" Ccrn Kxtra standard Kanry l.: Tnmatofg Threes ..................... ! -" Oa lions ........ ............. ...... 4.ZJ There are many other points of interest In the circular besides the mere matter of price. For instance, the Government has decided not to take any of the No. '2m. which, can ii era have been reserving for lis needs, and such packers a have made reservation accordingly are likely to have such avail able for spot sale. The date of settlement of price In Its finality has been set forward ti October 15. owing1 to the lateness of the season and the unsettled condition a The Government has agreed, where certain can rers have been In the habit of turning their ales over to commission bouaes wholly, to recognize such commission houses la Us transactions. The circular specially treats the matter of prorating deliveries to Jobbers due to possi ble corn shortage and necessity for filling the Government orders for IS per cent of their pack. The circular recites that some canuers are trying to shorten deliveries to jobbers by the amounts delivered to the Gov ernment, and the circular flatly states that such action Is not Justified; that the Gov ernment orders must be filled in full and that the balance must be prorated to Jobbers. Another interesting feature Is that since the last bulletin the Government has raised Its specification from 32 and 26 ounces for Nog. 3 and 'ixm cans to 3a and 2a ounces, . respectively. KCROrE'S KEEDS WIU BE LARGE If ea vy Importation of Wheat Made Neces sary by Small Crops. Crop conditions abroad are reported by Smomhall as follows: France Weather is unfavorable for late harvesting and threshing, and this work is delayed by scarcity of labor. Yields are ffood on area seeded, but the crop Is small as compared with normal. Import needs will be large and foreign wheat is la mod crate supply, as consumption has been lib rul. Italy Harvesting Is about finished end threshing is progressing slowly, with weather unfavorable and labor scarce. Yield of wheat moderate and under earlier expectations. Quality of all grain is fair. Importation will be large, despite economy, and foreign arrivals are- moderate. United Kingdom Weather Is unseason ably cool and wet.

Argentina All advices received her by leading Interests confirm a highly favorable outlook for wheat and oats. , WHEAT MOVEMENT IS STILI SLOW Oats, Barley and Corn Higher on Bid on Local Board. Grain dealers are not buying much wheat nd as the Government Is not In a position ymi to take over supplies here the farmers are compelled to wait, for the present. There appears to be a growing disposition to let go of wheat as soon as the millers and grain corporation are in shape to handle it. The oats and barley markets were firmer with bids at the Exchange 50 cents to 1.50 bigher on Monday. Bids for Kastern oats and corn were also firmer. Weather conditions la the Middle West, as wired from Chicago: "Minneapolis. Winnipeg, cloudy; Duluth. clear; Decatur, Chicago. Peorta. St. Louis, clear and fine; Kansas City, partly cloudy; tt.
