BULK OF APPLE CROP
IS STILL
No
Speculative Buying
Dealers This Year.
by
MONEY NOTEASYTO OBTAIN
About 2 0 00 Cars Disposed of by
Growers, Motl.v to Kujcrs
Who Have Actual Orders.
Th apple buying season in the Pacific
northwest is late. At this tiinn lat year
the niarKet was well advanced and a larj-c
proportion of the crop had passed from
growers hands, principally to dealers on a
canh ba Credi is were easy then and
money could be borrowed to finance tho
purchases.
This year the . situation is entirely dif
ferent. No purrhasofl were made during
the early part of the season. Restricted
credits, last years Josses and reports of a
iarve eastern crop all tend.d to make
buyers cautious and completely eliminated
spfrulation.
Now, as the picking stH.'on approaches,
more f. o. b. sales are beinc made, but
generally these are confined to dealers
who have actual orders from handlers in
consuming markets. From reports of sales
received by the Spokane office of the
bureau of markets and an estimate ob
tained by personal investigation, from l.ViO
to -000 cars have been actually sold on an
f . o. b. basis. Shi ppinj? organizations
handling apples for the growers' accounts
have under contract a fairly large pro
portion of the crop, but it is safe to as
sume that approximately three-fourths of
the production is still in growers' hands.
Generally speaking, growers seem unwilling
to sell at the prices being offered.
Recently growers throughout the north
west sold their crops at $2.75 for Delicious,
to J-..10 for Newtown and Spitzen
bcrgs. for Wlnesnps. $2 to $J.I0 for
S layman s. Homes and White Winter Pear
mains, and $2.10 for Jonathans. These
prices represent the extra fancy grade,
generally medium sizes. The two lower
grades, fancy and C grade, were sold, re
spectively, at 25 and 50 cents less than the
-extra t'ancys. .
F, o. b. sales to dat for future delivery
have ranged $2.13 to $2."0 for extra fancy
Jonathans, with most sales at $2.25 to
$2.35; extra fancy Delicious. $2.75 to $3,
mostly Grimes, $2.25 to $2.00; New-
towns. $2.15 to $2.25. Few sales of Wine
saps have been made, but reports so far
Indicate a range of $2.25 to $2.50 for
extra fancy. The uual 25 cents- differen
tial prevail for the two lower grades.
Total shipments from the fotir north
western states will be somewhat less than
Ia.it year. , Shipments from the Hood
River and White Salmon districts are esti
mated at approximately 00 per cent of
last year, while the- Rogue River valley
will not have more than- 40 per cent of
what was shipped last season. The Walla
Walla section has an excellent crop of De
licious, but a total yield of only about 50
per cent.
The Wenatchee valley crop is estimated
at about 0000 cars. A late frmze and
shortage of water have combined to re
duce the yield. Because of the water short
age there w ill be a comparatively large
proportion of smaller sizes, but the fruit
la well colored and comparatively free
from disease or insect injury. The pro
portion of the various varieties Is approxi
mately the same as last year. In the
Yakima valley, while the total yield is
somewhat less .than last season, the ab
sence of worms and scale and the good
yield of Wincsaps will tend to increase the
proportion of shipments, and it is possible
that the total number of cars will not be
materially less than last year. Idaho and
Montana have good yields.
WHEAT MARKET HAS SHARP DROP
Bid Are Reduced 4 to 10 Cent on Ixcal
Kxtbane.
The big break In the eastern wheat mar
ket was reflected in the northwest by a
sharp decline In bids. The result was a
tightening up in the country districts and
a practical stopping of all business. There
wre no sales on the local board, but at
lh Seattle exchange 55.000 bushels of club
changed hands at $2.24 and $.25, a de
cline of 8 to 9 cents from Wednesday s
price. Club bids at the exchange here
were reduced 0 cents. Other declines were
10 cents on hard white, 8 cents on Wft
white, 4 certs on hard winter and 5 cents
on northern spring and red- Walla.
Oats were S0cH$..50 lower and brewing
barley was down 50 cents. Keed barley
and corn bills were unchanged.
; nod man estimates the corn crop at
8,213.000,000 Lushels and the oats crop at
1.520,or0 biiFhels. Weather conditions in
the middle west, as wired from Chicago:
'Killing frol reported at Valentine, Neb
-North Platte and Sioux City. Generally
clear, frost in Iowa and parts of Indiana
and at Omaha. Rain in Chicago and
Milwaukee. Forecast: Heavy frost pre
dicted for greater portion of grain belt."

Canadian Offers vArc Lower Argentine
Conditions Are V nchangrd.
Stocks of wheat and flour in the United
Kingdom are large and merchants are not
buying heavily of foreign sorts, cabled
P.roomhall yesterday. Canadian offers are
lower and picked up in small lots. Argen
tine new crop conditions remain unchanged,
with the weather again f ijie throughout
the central and southern provinces, where
the bulk of wheat is almost in the milk
at age. With two or three months until
harvest, it is imponwible to estimate the
likely yield per acre, but some reliable
experts are looking for a decrease com
pared with last year. A later report says
the wheat crop haa greatly improved in
some nouthern sections.
India will export a little over 15,000.000
bur-hela of wheat this season, beginning
October 1.
The government wheat purchasing com-mtst-ton
at Brussels, Belgium, has fixed a
minimum purchasing prire for native
cereals to be effective up to January 15,
.1021, according to the American consulate
there. The established prices are as fol
lows: Wheat, $ 1.00 per bushel; mas-lin,
$0.2U per pound; rye, $1.38 per bushel;
spelt, $0.02 per bushel. The above prices
a re based on rate of exchange prevailing
on September I.

Government Monopoly lKolveI and Prices
No Longer Regulated.
A good opportunity exists for introducing
America n flour and cereals, especially
wheat, into Sweden. according to the
American consul-general at, Stockholm.
The flour monopoly in Sweden was dis
solved on August 31. leaving commerce in
flour and cereals entire I y free and wi th
ou t regulations governing prices.
There is also a good market for Ameri
can flour in Brazil, according i a report
of the American conaui at Bahia, Brazil,
UN50L Di
dated August 11. 1120. During the first fri
months of the current year, 1'J.212 bags of
flour were imported. 502i bags coming
from the United Slates. These bags each
contain 07 pounds of flour. The require
ments for the conring six months will
amount to about 100.000 bags. The present
retail price of flour In Bahia Is between
$10 and $10.50 per bag IT. S. currency).

Mr. Jewett declared .that the farm

NEW YORK. Sppt. :;n. In Its essential
characteristics today's stock market trav
ersed the ground made familiar by the
last fortnight. Industrials extended their
h-sses, wh Me rails and utilities were rela
tively strong.
Further downward price revision and
curtailment of operations were noted in
several important lines, especially the auto
mobile industry, and advices from steel
Ct liters strengthened the Impression of im
pending price concessions by independent
manufacturers. Selling agents of tne lead
ing cepper companies were reported to be
c fferii.g -the refined product at a fraction
unriet recent prices and other base metals
were quotably lower.
Eq utpment shares eased w ith steels,
despite belief that the transportation com
panies are com p biting plains for purchases
of large quantities of materials in the
final quarter of the year and oils were
les; resilient than usual.
The only noteworthy feature was an
-arly drive against the shorts in ruetble
Steel, which carried that stock Si points
to 135. the net gain, however, being only
1 points.
Kails made their highest quota t ions In
the last- hour on a brisk inquiry for sea
soned issues of the Pacific and granger
di visions at net ad van-es of 1 to about
2 pf-ints. wh ile secondary rails also hard

K.mh'1 HuUi Meets Willi,
' Serious Setback.
" cjj ICAtSo, spt. ."hi. -ntg puri'iaing of
fa nadian w heat by m illcrs In 'the United
States had a good deft I to do with a
severe break in wheat here today. The
market closed heavy. 7 Vs toUAC net lower
with Dec t m b r $2.TiM 2.17 and March
$2.1o4 '2.11 .' Corn finished 5'.:c down
to 1:0 advance, oats off Jii-lRic to 2'i0
and proi?ion6 unchanged lo 50c lower.
Selling premrure In wheat came largely
from houses, with northweatrn connections
and this appeared to give special emphatic
to word that further large amounts of
Can ad ian wheat had been bought to come
into the Cnited States, besides the quan-!
titles announced yesterday. At the unie
time, export business from thi country i
was said to have met with a rheck. Swiss,
tierman and French buyers asserting they
werefc ofiered wheat cheaper elsewhere. ;
India wa said" to have rolcasd 14,00.oo0
hue he is for export, notwithstanding recent
advices of widenpread starvation there.
Estimates that the l:20 corn -crop would
exceed - the government forecast by S2,
U00.OOO had a bearish effect on corn and
ho did big refeipts and apparent absence
of frost damage.
Oats rell w ith other grain.
Provisions were depreed by the weak
ness of hogs and cereats.
The Chicago market letter received yes
terday by overbeck &, Cooke company of
Portland said:
Wheat Except for scattered accumula
tion of buying orders over night, the sup
port in the market was poor and the
elling or surricient volume to Dring anoui
l decline of more than lo cent from
top price. The demand Tor cash wheat
waj also plow and premiums easier, due
to the tact that millers are receiving a
good part of their requirements from
Canada at lower prices. Advices from
the seaboard nuftgested liberal buying oi
Canadian wheat by exporters, but. no de
mand for our wheat because of the rela
tively high price. The Italian government
was reported to have withdrawn from the
market entirely. It was announced that
India had released 14.000,oo0 bushels for
export, which accounted for the British
commission not being in the market. With
an active export demand In this country,
the holding attitude of farmers could hut
find reflection in higher prices, but with
the foreigner see-king stSpplles elsewhere,
it la' apparent that we must necessarily
readjust to a basis with other exporting
countries.
Corn FroJH the outset this morning the
market was a disappointment to those
who expected higher prices due to frost
damage. To begin with, the frost re
porta this morning were not as general
as predicted, and with a few exception,
th-e frost wasnot of a killing kind. Mu.Ti
selling was indulged 'in in anticipation
of a severe decline in cash corn tomorrow
with the September no longer a sustain
ing factor. Rallies were numerous but
served only to reduce -t he outstanding
short Interest the vulnerable portion of
which apparently covered on yesterday s
bulges.
Oats This market was under pressure
with other grain-s and not only futures but
cash a well suffered sharp reduction.
Receipts were estimated at 100 cars, a
small increase, and met an insufficient
demand. This market is In a weak posi
tion and the fact that prices have broken
In two since ea.rly summer is of no con
sequence.
Provisions Weak eanly on the waukness
In grain arra decline In hog prices. Trade
averaged Light until toward the close, when
a demand sprang up. causing a sharp re
action and short covering.
