GENERAL IN STATE
Good Progress Made With
Fall-Sown Crop.
SPRING WHEAT BEING CUT
Prunes Are Dropping Heavily in
Lane and Marion Counties.
Potatoes in Xeed of Kain.
Coud progress Is being made In harvest
Ins: tb bis train crop in Oregon. General
crop conditions are summarized by the
weather bureau: n
''Th midweek temperature were ab
normally high, maximum records being
broken In nearly alt localities except coast
counties. There was practically no pre
cipitation and rain Is now urgently needed
for late crops and to put the soli In good
condition for early Tall plowing. In south
ern Oregon the air was full of smoke from
forest fires and two severe wind storms
caused some damage to standing grain In
the central portion of the state. Farm
work was rushed under favorable condi
tions. "The harvest of winter wheat and rye
continued in eastern counties and thresh
ing was progressing In all districts. Bar
ley Is" about all Cut; cutting of oats and
spring wheat is nearly completed In the
Willamette valley and is under wiy In
coast and eastern count iefc, threshing be
coming general In the first-named section.
Corn advanced rapidly under the high
temperatures, some garden Varieties being
plentiful in the markets, but the commer
cial crop has been Injured some by drouth
In Lane and Marlon counties and a good
rain would be beneficial
'Prunes are dropping heavily In Lane
and Marlon counties, due In a measure to
Injury to fruit buds by the cold of last
winter. Bartlett pear harvest is in full
swing as far north as Douglas county. The
weather was favorable for the development
of all fruits, although there appeared to
be a tendency toward too rapid maturity,
owing to the continuous high temperatures
with lack of moisture.
"Alfalfa meadows under Irrigation made
splendid growth; the hot weather Is start
ing the third crop in Malheur and Umatilla
counties and this Crop is now being cut in
Josephine county. Seed clover is ripening
fast in Lane county, where It Is about
ready to cut. New stands of May-planted
clover show up well in Benton county.
Pastures and ranges on low lands are very
poor, but the mountain ranges continue
'good. Stock are about holding their own,
although lh ome localities they ar railing
off In flesh, owing Jto poor feed and the hot
weather.
"Potato digging has begun In Douglas
and the crop is ripe in Josephine county,
but elsewhere is. much in need of rain to
Insure best results. Truck crops on non
irrigated lands are alsq suffering for rain
and being unfavorably affected by the ex
cessively noi weainer ol me yusi ween..
Hops aro coming on in fine condition and
vine crops are becoming more plentiful at
reasonable pricea."
COUNTRY WlilSAT BCTLVG IS LIGHT
Bids Aro Advanced From One to Three
Cents on the Local Board.
Wheat trading In the country was again
reported quiet. At the local exohange
quotations were higher aU around. Sep
tember bids wero raised 3 cents on north
ern spring, 2 cents on hard white, white
club and hard winter and 1 cent on soft
white and red Walla.
Oats bids ranged from unchanged to $1
higher and barley advanced 50c Corn
was unchanged.
Canadian crop conditions are generally
Very promising. Rye-cutting 1s about fin
ished, wllh some threshed; yield and qual
ity aro good. Wheat harvest has started
and will bo general next week. The gen
eral stand is good. Yields may be disap
pointing in sorno sections, due to extreme
heat and lack of moisture, causing shrink
age. Oats are good. Hay and pasturage
are good to excellent. The labor supply is
adequate.
Brooniliall .cables that foreign crop con
ditions aro generally favorable. Import
requirements of France this year will be
very light.
France has resold to Argentina 40,000.000
bushels of Argentine wheat at about
in return for which Argentina has per
mitted the export of 7,000.000 bushels to
France, duty free, according to reports
from commercial sources.
Terminal receipts. In cars, were reported
by the Merchants Exchange as follows:'
Wheat. Barley. Flour. Oats. Hay.

MALAGA RAISIN IMPORTS KECORD
t7nprecedented Movement Is Ascribed to
Prohibition.
Nearly 8.000,000 pounds of raisins
T.S3S.86T have been exported to the United
States from Malaga during the first six
months of 1020. This is more than the
totial export of raisins from Malaga during
the seven years from 1918 to 1919, In
elusive.
The extraordinary demand for Malaga
raisins, according to the American consul
at Malaga, is ascribed by the exporters to
the ISth amendment to the constitution of
the United States, as they believe that the
raisrins are used in the manufacture of
home-prepared beverages and wines. .
Practicably the entire production of dried
raisins from the 1919 crop has been ex
hausted and there are no stocks on hand
It is estimated that the first raisins of the
new crop will appear on the market lit
Malaga between August 0 and 25. The
producers, in view of the great demand
In the United States, are inclined to hold
out for high prices, notwithstanding the
prospect of an increased production.

Botid Trading Dull.
NEW TORK, Aug. 11 The session of
the stock exchange today differed in no
essential particular from the listless and
reactionary treiHi of recent" days. Shorts
again controlled the market and exerted
fresh pressure against many of the more
volatile issues.
European affairs, as expressed by the
Russo-Polish crisis, were once more an
overshadowing influencey although this was
perhaps less perceptible iu the desultory
movements of foreign exchange. Sterling,
lire and marks were irregularly "lower, but
the Paris rate strengthened.
Local monetary conditions also provided
the bear with fresh ammunition. Money
continued to flow to crop centers, with
Consequent depletion of time funds, Ihd
call loans rose to 9 per cent In the final
hour after opening at the prevailing rate
of T per cent.
Prices of stocks were mainly higher at
the outset, but gave way under selling
movement. Motor, metal, leather and
sugar issues were most frequently singled
out by the shorts, oils and shippings re
trieving part of yesterday's losses at the
Irregular close. Sales 375,000 shares.
Trading in bonds 'was progressively dull,
but embraced an unusual number of Is
sues. Many active domestic groups, in
cluding liberty bonds, eased slightly, but
Dominion of Canada 3s of 1931 made up
yesterday's two-point loss. Sales- (par val
ue) aggregated $7,300,000. Old U. S. bonds
unchanged on. call.

EXPORT TRADE LIMITED
REACTION IX WHEAT 5IARlET
AT CHICAGO.
Early Tone Firm With Buying by
Cash Interests, but Iligh Prices
Are Xot Maintained.
CHICAGO. Aug. 18. Grain trade dls
relayed considerable strength at the start
today, but about mid-Session the maraci
reacted and prices decWned from the day's
high. Wheat closed at net gain or H'Vjc.
With December $2.39 2. 39 and March
$2.40: corn was to 30 below yester
day's final; oats were off 94lc, while
provisions were almost at a standstill.
Wheat showed much firmness with buy
lng by cash interests while there was
Some covering by shorts. There was lltt-le
pressure ahd export business was quiet:
Corn early showed strength along with
wheat, but prices did not hold.
Oats moved In sympathy with corn.
Provisions were easier with grains ahd
hogs and averaged lower, with trade
Blmited.
The Chicago market letter received yes
terday by Overbeck & Cooke company of
Portland said:
Wheat Had a strong tone on a very
light volume of trade. Hedging sales were
less in evidence and scattered buying of
futures by the seaboard took the surplus
off the market. Some lbcal selling took
place Just before the close. Influenced by
the decline In other grains. Export news
is conflicting, some claims being made to
day that there was practically no demand
while other authorities reported a fair
business consummated yesterday and to
day. The British commission, however.
was not In the market. Country offer
ings were said to be very meager, hot
withstanding that bids to arrive were ad
vanced to 14 cents over December for
Aucust shipment.
Corn nilid a firm tone during the early
trading, but developed weakness later in
the session oh scattered selling and lack
of support. - There was nothing in the
news to which the decline could be attrib
uted, aside from reports of rain in parts
of Kansas and Nebraska, where moisture
was needed. All cash markets had
'strong tone, advancing to 1. cent and
from 2 to 5 cents at outside points. The
weekly government weather and crop re
port was construed as bullish, showing
crop deterioration in many sections due to
drouth. We fail to see the wisdom of sell
ing December corn at this discount with
the crop still an unRnown quantity.
Oats Started firm but developed
sagging tendency which maintained up to
the close 01 t'he market. There was lit
tie of interest in the general news. Cash
oats were unchanged to 1 cent lower, ship
ping demand was pinall and country of
feringa fairly liberal, with difficulty in s
euring cars the main interference. There
is nothing in sight at the moment to re
vive confidence on the long side.
Rye howei firmness early, but
Acted later with other grains. The feature
Of tiie trading was the purchase of Sep
tember by seaboard Interests, apparently
covering sales to exporters. Cash rye was
relatively firm with sales. No. 2 on track
16 cents over September.
Provisions Trade small and mostly be
tween shorts and holders. Some liquida
tion took place Influenced by the decline
In grain and packors' support at the de
line was light. Cash trade dull. 20,000
hogs indicated for tomorrow and 9000 car
ried over from today.

DEER HIT BY AUTOMOBILE
Animal Leaps Over 1500-Foot Pre
cipice JTear Oakridge.
EUGENE, Or.. Aug-. 18. (Special.)
Mayor Peterson of Eugene and J. A.
McLean, proprietor of the Griggrs
h6tel of this city, hit a deer -with
their car as they were returning from
Oakridge yesterday afternoon and
were rounding a sharp turn on the
grade. The animal sprang blindly
over the 1600-foot precipice, crashing:
on the rocks below and failing into
the underbrush. There is no doubt,
the men said, but that the fall killed
the animal, which was a large doe.
The men stayed near the place for
about an hour trying to devise some
way to procure the game, but because
the descent was so steep they gave
it up.
Highway Stretch Finished.
GRANTS PASS, Or., Aug. 18. (Spe
cial.) The Pacific highway between
Grants Pass and Rogue river has been
opened to traffic, cutting off one of
the worst pieces of road in this part
