THE MORNING OREGOXIAy, TUESDAY. JULY 22, 1910. .
CANTALOUPE MARKET -IS
WEAKER 111 THE
Trade Is Overloaded With In
ferior Stock.
IMPROVEMENT IS EXPECTED
Imperial Valley Season Is About
.Finished Standard Turlocks
Meet With Fair Demand.
There was a generally easier feeling in the
local cantaloupe market yesterday, due in
part to the liberal receipts of the past few
days and In part to th relatively poor qual
ity of a good deal of the product sent in
from the south. Front street dealers, how
ever, vero confident that he market soon
would take a turn for the better, for tha
indications are for a somewhat lighter ship
ping movement this week and next.
"Hea-y unloading here of inferior Im
perial Valley stock the last of the week was
In the main responsible for the breaking of
the local market," said a Front street
handler yesterday. "The southern shippers
had considerable stocks to move and they
were obliged to get rid of them as best they
could. It seems that they picked Pprtland
as the most promising outlet for their sur
plus and proceeded to unload here.
"A very considerable portion of tfce Im
perial Valley stock sent here the past few
days was more or less off in quality and
some of it overripe, and this naturally had a
bad effect on a market already none too
strong. The indications for the near future,
however, are more favorable, for the Im
perial Valley season Is about finished. Ship
ments from that quarter from this time on
will be lipht and shortly will cease alto
Rcther. We look for at least a slight im
provement in the market this week. Prices
may not Improve materially, but a better
market tone is promised."
Receipts from California yesterday to
taled 0 cars, including both Imperial Valley
and Turlock stock. Imperials sold generally
at $2 to $2.50 a standard crate, while Tur
locks of good quality met with a fair de
mand at $3.50 to $3.75. Off-grade stuff went
at whatever prices were available, and in
some instances these were very low.
The supply of watermelons was adequate
and dealers generally reported good quality
in the offerings. Prices ranged from $2.75
to $3 a Hundred, and with the weather warm
there was a good demand. The outlook Is
for a heavier movement of watermelons from
.this time on.
COARSE GRAINS SHOW STRENGTH
Higher Trices Are Quoted Locally on Both
Oat and Barley.
At yesterday's session of the Merchants'
Kxchitrige bids were raised on No. 2 white
feed oats and on standard feed barley as
well, the former going up 50 cents and the
latter 50 cents to $l.ro. The advances here
reflected the generally stronger situation in
the eastern grain markets. Chicago reported
advances on both oats and barley.
Broomhall's latest report says" of wheat
and barley in the northwest:
'Drouth and heat are cutting the crop of
wheat severely in the three northern Pacific
states. The outturn will probably be 70,
000,000 and the barley yield will also likely
be about 50 per cent."

Potatoes Make Good Growth.
T.oral potato dealers who have investi
gated crop conditions in various parts of
the state, especially in the country tributary
to. Portland, say that the crop prospect at
this time is exceptionally favorable. The
acreage is believed to b somewhat under
that of last season, but in all sections in
spected the crop is declared to be making
pxcellent progress. Tb5 condition of the
late-planted crop now is said to be consid
erable better than usual at this state of the
season. New Oregon potatoes are coming
to market In a moderate way and selling at
prices around $2.75 a hundred. Old stock
is going at $1.75 to $2.

Strength Reported In All Other Divi
sions, With Quality Beer In
Excellent Demand.
A new high record for hogs was estab
lished in the Portland livestock market,
when a few small lots . of quality stock
-HBed hands at $22.50, 25 cents above last

market m as .attributed to a falling off in
offerings In the face of a continued strong
demand. "

past. Best grade steers were said to be in
decidedly good demand.

CROP REPORTS KXAGCKRATED
Irrigation Districts Will Fraduc. Big
Tonnage of Alfalfa and Hay.
HBt.ENA. Mont.. July 21. Charles D.
Greenfield, state commissioner of agriculture,
said today that some reports regarding
Montana crop conditions are exaggerated.
He has prepared a review showing that
1.075.000 acres Jn tho state will give good
crops. The Irrigated districts do well, he
hsld, and fanners In dry areas do well when
they understand the- dry farm roe-.hods.
"It i unfortunate that the belief should
go abroad that all other parts of Montana
are dried up and that there is no feed In
the state." Mr. Greenfield said. "The fact
I that Montana hts a very large area under
irrigation in southern, central and eastern
Montana which will produce a very larje
tonnage of alfalfa and other hay."

was suitable for the slow, horse-drawn
vehicle of a few years aco. but th

Oats Weakens at Finish.
CHICAGO. July 21. Corn developed new
strength today chiefly as a result of sharp
upturns In the value or hogs. Klnal Quo

2H cents net higher, with September 31.93tt

finished V4 cent to H Vent down and pro
visions unchanged to CO cents up.
Bui. Ista sentiment ruled the corn market
throughout the day. for not only were hold
ing values soaring .again but labor diffi
culties both In the packing; house industry
and In other Important linss seemed to
promise better chance of adjustment than
was the case on fcnturday. with the move
ment of wheat necessarily having prefer
ence. . the arrivals of corn were expected
to ba small for some -time. Profit taking
sales by holders falla1 therefore to bring
about any radical downturns and a fresh
break In sterling exchange was virtually Ig
nored. Hedging pressure weakened oats. First,
however, all deliveries climbed to the highest
prices yet this season. The bulge was due
to predictions that tha 1919 yield of oats
would be less than the average.
Provisions were lifted by ths strength
of corn and hogs.
