DEPRESSION ACUTE
s
run
Sales Are Too Few to Estab
lish Values Here.
TANNERS NOT INTERESTED
Sfin lower Quotations Are Prob
able Slump In Calfskins Has
Been Rapid.
The hide market continues almost at a
standstill and prices are too uncertain to
be q uoted as representing; market value.
The decline In the leatHer and shoe trades
has withdrawn all support from the hide
market. The few prices now and then
made are low, but there is no assurance
that they can be taken as the bottom of
the market.
The same depressed conditions exist ir
all the markets of the country. The situa
tion as to country hides at Chicago Is re
ported by the Hide and Leather weekly as
follows:
"General unsettlement continues, which
keeps the hide market in a very nervous
state. No real trading has been done
for many weeks and there Is no telling
where values are. Scattering small sales
are made at outside points, but the local
market Is practically at a standstill. Of
ferings of hides at what appear to be
bargain prices receive only a passing in
terest. Prices have been on a steady de
cline for quite some time, but where the
stopping point is. no one seems to know.
The market has all the earmarks of con
tinued dullness. Receipts of hides at Chi
cago for the week ending October 16,
wefe 2,629,000 puonds, the previous week
2.360,000 lbs. and from January 1 to Oc
tober 10. Inclusive, 113,822,000 pounds.
"For calf skins; mixed cities and coun
tries are quoted around 13 cents to 15
cents; less is talked for back salting lots;
light calfskins are nominal at $1; deacons,
SO cents less. Four thousand Indiana and
Ohio mixed city and country light calf
and deacons sold at 70 cents apiece flat.
At Kansas City, where calfskins are
quoted at 10ig12c, the market for coun
try hides is reported:
"Present conditions are unexplainable,
Declines have never been so rapid and to
such an extent as at present, and it does
not look like the end has yet been reached.
There are no inquiries for stock; tanners
are positively not interested, regardless of
the price at which hides could be pur
chased. Nominal quotations for buffs.
heavy cows and extremes, late receipts.
U cents to 12 cents; long-haired hides, old
stock, positively unsalable at any price;
native steers, 12S 13c; native bulls, 10&llc;
branded bulls, U'u 10c; branded, hides.
8 10c
The Philadelphia report is even more un
satisfactory: "The market is weak In all directions.
Prices are nominal. We learn from tan
ners of New York outside packer steers
offered as low as irc. No takers. Calf
akin are without value.
6MALL CHANGE IN WllliAT MARKET
Only Club and Soft White Bids Are Altered
on Board. '
Although Chicago was higher, wheat bids
an the local board were unchanged or
lower. Offers for soft w hi be wore reduced
& cents and white cJub was down 2 cents.
The other bids were the same as Thursday.
There mere no changes in coarse grain
bids.
Cables from Paris stated that the wheat
market, was easier. Influenced by the Alls
tralian offerings.
Australian exports have become a factor
again and the past week the total was
1.272.0OO bushels wheat. Exporting was
cesumed when It was discovered, that the
Argentine crop was likely to be a large
one. The new crop In Australia has been
estimated as high as 14-1.000,000 bushels
of wheat, which would give about 100,000,
000 bushels for export.
The Argentine crop Is being damaged
by frost. A lighter frost is reported in
Buenos Aires, but not considered very seri
ous, end the weather is warmer.
London estimated that Uniited Spates
whrjt could bo landed here at Site Id per
40 pounds under . the normal rate of
exchange, but the present exchange rates
raised the cowt to HDs Gd.
The Liverpool corn market was easier
n the expected large Argen-tine shipments.
The week's shipments from Argentina were
304.000 bushels of wheat and u55 bushels
of corn.
Terminal receipts. In cars, were reported

TURKEY ORDERS BEING PLACED
Buyers Show Interest In Coming Holiday
Trade.
Inquiries are coming in from the trade
for holiday dressed turkeys, and dealers
are calling on shippers for Information
as to the extent of the supply. As usual,
opinions are far apart as to probable
Thanksgiving prices, but it Is not thought
the market will vary much from last
year's. Thomas G. Farrell has sent this
letter to country shippers:
"It would seem as if good turkeys will
be none too plentiful. It looks like a
rather light crop and a good demand They
.wlll.rule high-priced for fine stuff, there
can be no doubt as to this, but how high?
Well, some few lots of good birds have
already bren marketed at 50 to 53 cents
for tops. There is, of course, but a very
limited market as yet. A few more would
block the market, as it is too early. Some
few can be used almost any time, but
not many. There is always a good mar
ket about a week or ten days prior to
Thanksgiving, for shipping orders, say
about November 17 or IS: but the bulk
should reach market by express always
on the 20th. 21st and 22d. We feel that last
year money conditions and .employment
conditions were a little better than the
present, and last year the best dressed
turkeys sold for 45 (350 cents. It Is our
belief that with a light crop, the best
birds this year will bring about 50 centa
They may bring more, but remember, 50
cents wholesale means 57 3? 60 cents retail,
with credit and delivery.
"Chickens are but fair sellers (dressed)
for Thanksgiving. They go better at
Christinas and New Tear. Fancy dressed
geese should be good sellers and should
bring 3540 cents and ducks as much. Kill
and dress nothing but prime fat poultry;
unfit dressed will not bring as much as
live. This Is very important ; also, keep
from feed, before killing, 12 to 24 hours.
Dry-pick turkeys, scald geese and ducks.
Pack, when thoroughly cold, in light cases
or paper-lined burlap bags if you have
no cases."
PRINT BUTTER MARKET UNSETTLED

IMPROVEMENT IN RETAIL BUYING
More Attractive Prices Stimulate Trade In
florae Markets.
NEW TORK. Oct. 29. Bradstreet's to
morrow will say:
The trade and price movement Is more
irregular, but on the whole rather less
one-sidd than in the preceding week, fur
ther retrogade movements in wholesal
trade production, employment and prices
seeming to be partially balanced by sligh
improvement In retail buying and a fairly
distinct hardening in prices of farm prod'
ucst, which may or may not presage a turn
in the hitherto ebbins tide of trad-e dis
tribution.
On what might be termed the construct
ive side of the situation is to be cited
eiight increase in buying at retail -a quit'
distinct gain from quiet to fair being
noted from the apparent oead low point o
last week the cause of this being, appa
rently. the advent of lower temperature;
or prospects of more normal weather con
ditions West and. south, tn-ougn more
tractive prices at retail are cited a;
cause In some few markets.

Years Along Main Line of
North. Bank Road.
Crop conditions rn tha territory of the
Spokane, Portland & Seattle, Oregon Trunk
and. Oregon Electric rail-ways are reported
by R. W. Plokard, asaitftant general freight
agent, as follow:
Crop conditions along the main line of
the Spokane, Portland A Seattle railway
are better this tall than tn recent years,
There was considerable moisture early this
season and a Varge amount of fall grain
was sown. The weather has teen iai
and wheat Is coming up and wili hav a
good sta-rt before the winter snow comes
on. Pawturage is Detter tnan in recen
years. Sto-ck in th'is territory is in good
condition. The grain crop around w ash
tucna, McAdamts, Kahlotus, Burr Canyon
and Benge was excellent. The e levators
and warehouses are filled to ca-pacity and
considerable grain has been stored out
side. In the Klickitat valley, which in
eludes Warwick. Centerville and. Golden
dale, the fall seeding is going on in full
blast. Soil is In good condition to work
and the farmers are geXting along fine
with their tall seeding. There Is more
wheat bfing put out this fall than rast.
In th Bickleton, Roosevelt and Alderdal
diis-tricts fall sowing is about half com
pieted, a large acreage being sown an
the soil te In flno condition, due to recen
nains. In the Horse Heaven country, tribu
tary to Paterson and Hover, the fali seed
ing is about completed. The acreage is
estimated to be more than last fall
In central Oregon at Maupin. Juniper
Flats. Tygh Valley and in the Bake Oven
country seeding i anout nail aone
the acreage is about the same aa fast fa.1
The soil its in good condition and a goo
stand is looked for. On the Agency plains,
tributary to Maoras, the seeding is jus:
commencing. There will be approximately
the same acreage as last fadl and probabl
ittie more. Around Metorlus, Culver,
Opal City, Redmond and Bend the seedin
s just commencing,
There will bo about
the same acreage aa last fall. If not
Mttle more. Soil is in good condition, due
recent rains. Around Prineville, fan !
seeding is about half over and there will
be around 90 OO acres put to rQafl grain
this year.
Crop conditions on the Astoria -division.
tributary to Astoria, Rainier, Scappoo.e,
Goble and St. Helens are excellent. The
potato crop is very good, yielding approxi
mately 3U0 bushels per acre; however, Ter
mers were delayed about three weeks In
harvesting, on account of rain, but no ma
terial damage to potatoes. Cabfbage crop
is good, yielding 25 tons per acre, the
cabbage being especially solid and of good
grade. Hay crop good, mostly all cut be
fore rain. Oats crop good, about hair
being cut for hay. PracticaMy ail was cut
before rain started.
The cranberry crop in Clatsop county
was very good, yielding about 80 bu-shels
per acre this year. Picking was delayed
to some extent by ra in during the latter
part of last month and the first part of
this month. The sunflower crop was es
pecially large In this territory this year, ,
total acreage l'S a-cres. Twenty additional
acres of stnawberriea were set out this
year, with an excellent yield. Sixty addi
tional acres of peas and oats were seeded
In thks territory this year, producing a
fair crop.
Fail pi o win g fcs p ro gres3I n g very fast
In all districts along the Oregon Electric
railw-ay.-The farmers are taking advantage
of the fine weather which they have had
during the past week, and are sowing
winter wheat as last ss they can, the
acreage being greater than last year. The
buik of- the wheat of this territory from
this years crop has moved to the mar
kets. The estimated crop of wheat from
the-district between Fayetteville and Pot
ter this year was in th-e neighborhood of
55.000 'bushels. Pasture in all districts is
!n fine shape, due to the wet weather dur
ing the latter part of September and the
early part of October.
Th-e prune crop this year la about one
third of the normal crop in the district
Trora Portland to Eugene, due to the heavy
rains last moirth. Prune packing is In
fun b'ast and the pack Is moving to mar
kets in cood shape. In the Salem and other
va!!e.y districts Oregon growers are finding
ready mark-et for their apples. Canning
plants are working furl force and canned
gooda are beginning to move out In good
shape.
The potato crop thi year la very good
in ail sections and digging la progressing
very fast. The farmers state the crop Is
of good quality and fair quantity. Unless
fair weather continues for the next few
weeks the onion crop will hardly be 60
per cent of normal. The bulk of the
onion-9 have- been pulled and are now in
process of drying on the ground.
The celery crop in the Lake La'blsh dis
trict. Just sotrth of Qulnaby, is very good
and the quality fine.
All hops are picked and padced and the
tm'ik of them are now in storage in ware
houses, the crop being of fair quantity
and In some localities good quality. It ts
expected good prices will be received for
this years crop in foreign markets.

Holding by Farmers Is Regarded

CHTCAGO, Oct. 29. Bulls had the ad
vantage in the wheat market today, owing
largely to frost reports from Argentina and
to views expressed by a well-known trade
authority that tha farm xtrikM in the
United States was serious. The market

More than usual siwniflcancA was at
tached to Argentine frost news. Inasmuch
as wheat crop damage was Implied and
any great Impairment of yield In the south
ern hemisphere would be likely to bring
about a more active European demand for
supplies from the United States. Interest
among wheat traders centered almost en
tirely, however, on developments touching
he holding attitude of farmers. It was
contended that notwithstanding primary
receipts continued liberal, an adequate test
as to the amount of stoppage of rural
selling would require at least ten days.

Provisions were Irregular.
The Chicago -market letter received ves-

the outset eovwlng of short contracts

porting damage to wheat by frost which
was later conitradioted by Broomhall as
well as by a decVin-s of 3 cents In Buenos
Aires wheat prices. Another Item which
iitnuenced the market and also failed of
