SHARP
RISE OCCURS
OF TEAS
PRICES
Costs Have Advanced From 50
to Nearly 100 Per Cent.
CONSUMER TO FEEL EFFECT
Heretofore, Dealers Have Absorbed
Advances, but From Now On
Prices "Will Be Based on Costs.
present price most dealers are of the opin
ion that trading will be more active and
consumption will increase.
Ranch Eg Arrivals Very Small.
Receipts of Oregon ranch eggs at the
present time are equal to only a frac
tion of the city's requirements, and there
Is no chance for much lncreaae In the sup
ply for several weeks yet- . Prices were
firm and higher yesterday at 68 cents for
candled stock.
Cube butter was very firm with cube
extras again selling at 63 H cents.
Poultry receipts were large and the under
tone of the market was weak. Ore seed
meats were also easier, particularly bogs.
Teas of a!l sorts and descriptions are
climbing in price. The consumer has felt
some of these advances, and from now on
will begin to . feel more of them- Up to
the present time many retailers have had
old stocks, and to a greater or less extent
have sold them on the basis of old costs,
but now this will change, as teas have ad
vanced in cost all the way from 60 to prac
tically 100 per cent.
The teas most in demand on this Coast,
Japanese teas, have practically doubled in
cost since before the war, but the importer
and retail grocer have until now been ab
sorbing more or less of the difference. From
this time on, however, the consumer must
expect to pay on the basis of the new costs.
The reason for advances in tea are the
same as prevail in this country which have
caused advances on all goods, but beyond
that Is the enormously increased cost of sil
ver. Teas are paid for in the country of
production with silver. "When silver costs
double what it used to it Is easy to see why
teas advance. Besides that, freight that
used to bo 2 cents per pound has gone up
to as high as 14 cents per pound.
The consumer up to this time has been
very well treated by the retailer, but in
the future must expect to pay a price based
on the cost of the goods.
tVASHrNGTOX CHOPS CXDER AVERAGE
Weather Conditions Kesponsible for Small
lelfls of heat, Oats and Barley.
The "Washington state crop report for Oc
tober, issued by E. T. Marchetti, field agent
of the Department of Agriculture, says:
"VVlitat The wheat crop is 2,7SS,8i.5 bush
e!s less than the unusually small crop of last
year, in spite of an average increase of 333
000 acres. The quality is somewhat superior
to last year in the Palouse and Walla Walla
sections excepting that smut is more gen
cral. In the Big Bend and adjacent coun
ties the weights per measured bushel were
under pre-liarvest expectations.
oats Oats on the La Conner Flat In
fc-kagit County yielded considerably below
average, and in the Palouse, Ferry and Ste
vens counties the crop is much lighter than
the unusually small crop of a year ago. The
Quality, generally, is below average.
Barley The barley crop, located prin
cipally in Columbia, Garfield, Walla Walla,
Asotin and Whitman counties, is the small
est in the history of the state on account of
unfavorable climatic conditions and aphides
damage. Occasional fields were abandoifed
uue 10 ngnt yields, ana in many sections
where a surplusage is normally produced
barley has been imported this year for feed
Owing to hot weather damage, the weight
per measured bushel is lighter than usual.

Broomhall's Argentine cable says: "Weather
has now turned fine and crop outlook Is
maintained. Recent rains in the northern
sections proved beneficial. Movement of
wheat to ports is on a more, moderate scale
and shipments are tending to decrease.
Corn is being offered in larger quantities
with prices declining. Exporters have been
absorbing fair amounts, but their purchases
hale not been sufficient to offset the liberal
offerings. Oats continue in better request
and prices consequently are firming.

ave ample evidence of extreme nervousness
on the part of a majority of traders, but
n the end the advantage remained with the
bears.
Oats swayed with corn, although steadied
