The United States Grain Corporation has not yet begun buying wheat, but Mr. Ilouoer hopes to start operations in a few days. There are a number of details yet to be arranged before the Government will be ready to take over the farmers' grain. Milling operations are enlarging and the effect Is seen in an easier feeling In the mlllfeed market. Prices at the mills are un changed, but dealers on the exchange low ered their bids. Offers for local oats were raised at the exchange. The tone of the barley market was weaker. Bids for Eastern corn were ad vanced $1 to $1.75 a ton. Two hundred tons ot Jvo. 3 yellow corn were sold at $53 for February delivery.

Commercial Bank says of weather and crop conditions: "The warm, dry weather that has char acterized the entire Summer was interrupt ed by slight showers on the night of Sep- reraDer 10 and 12. and a. slight frost, do ing no damage, on the morning of the. 14th. The real change came on the 22d, when a rain commenced, during which time nearly an inch of rain has fallen. This 'thorough soaking coming earlv In the Fall should bring up the Fall feed on the ranges and naks Fall plowing possible. Some third cutting alfalfa has been wet. but the dam age Is slight. "Hay Fifteen dollars a ton in the stack eems still the established price, although In & few Instances growers are holding for more. "Grain 'Wheat Is being bought on the basis of the Government price, $2.20 per bushel In Chicago, the Caldwell four mills are paying ?3 per H. with dockage accord ing to the Government Instructions. The grain is sampled and shipped as received, subject to Government Inspection and dock age at terminal points; 2.25 is being paid for barley and the same for oats these grains, especially oats, being scarce locally. "Fruit Prunes have been shipped freely the past week and the quality is good. So far as we know there have been no returns received as yet. but the general market is exceptionally good. Jonathan apples are bout ready and some are being picked. In freedom from worms, uniformity in size and Keneral quality the apple crop is exception ally good. "Potatoes Digging has commenced on the Gems and five cars of these late potatoes have been brought in over the Caldwell Traction Company lines. It is reported that offers of $1.40 have been made for Gems. VISIBLE WHEAT Sl'PFLY INCREASING American Stocks Gnin Nearly Million Bush els in Week.

HOPS QUIET BUT NOT WEAKER Details of Recent Dollar Sale in New York Market. There has not been much doing in hops for several days, and this has caused the bears to proclaim a weaker market, but when dealers attempt to buy they find the market as strong as ever. No hops are to be found in the Northwest under the prices paid last week, and few growers are dis posed to sell even at those prices. Commenting on the dollar market for hops In New Tork, the Waterville Hop Re porter says: "The season of 1917 will go on record as one of the few banner years In the hop- growing Industry in this county, as th hoped-for price of $1 per pound was finally reached Saturday vhen Fred Zwelfel & Son sold their crop of about 100 bales at that figure, sacking and freight being paid for by the Western buyer.
