SAILING DATES ARRANGED
Important Announcement Made by
Columbia PaciHc Shipping Com
pany, Local Agents. '
Permanence and regrularity of serv
ice are indicated in the announcement
yesterday of sailing: dates for vessels
of the United American lines from
Portland to the Atlantic coast until
next Bprinjr. It was also announced
by the Columbia-Pacific Shipping
company, which represents the United
Amdon Unosa hr. that vessela-of
this line will include the ports of
Charleston, S. C. and Savannah, Ga.
Sailings from Portland to '-Charleston
are definitely listed for every
month, while inclusion of Savannah
depends upon the development of
cargo for that port in sufficient
' quantity from the Pacific coast.
The steamer Hawaiian, which sailed
from New York October 12, is starting
this resumption of the pre-war inter
coastal service of the American-Hawaiian
line, and has already been
booked to carry 1500 tons of flour
from Portland to Charleston. She is
listed to sail from Portland Novem-
Tn "the opinion of K. T. Dawson,
general manager of the Columbia-; Pa
cific Shipping company, the inclusion
in thj American-Hawaiian service of
the south Atlantic ports will prove a
particular advantage to the milling
industry of the northwest. While the
south Atlantic section has been receiving-
Its flour for many years from
the Minnesota and Michigan district,
the present rail rates enable millers
of Portland and the rest or tne pa
cific northwest to lay down flour at
Charleston -by the all-water route on
a basis of competition with eastern
flours. There is also said to be a
strong demand in that section of the
south for the cheaper grades of Pa
cific coast flour.
The sailings now listed from Port
land in the United American lines
service are: Hawaiian, November 15;
Oregonian, December 10; Sudbury, De
cember 20; Mexican, January 3;
Ohioan, January 17; Texan, Feb
ruary 1.

COXTROL OF GRAIX IN CANADA
Government Not Disposed to Re-establish
Regulations.
" The Canadian government has given out
a statement In answer to the request of
the farmers of western Canada for the
re-establishment of wheat control. This
amounts in effect to a refusal. The Win
nipeg correspondent of the Northwestern
Miller says:
The statement points to the fact that
the United States market fpr wheat is now
wide open, and that the great consuming
markets of Europe are either open or In
process of becoming so.
"In view of these facts the government
cannot see where any good would come
of more control in this country. It rea
sons that If the government undertakes
to control the marketing of wheat it must
stand prepared to take a possible loss on
the transaction, since It would be com
pelled to take the world's price for the
surplus. This risk it does not care to face
and. accordingly, the request is refused.
"The government does, however, state
that if at any time It can be shown that
the market is being- manipulated, or the
free play of the law of demand and sup
ply Interfered with, it will act. It Is
bound to protect both producer and con
sumer against unfair prices."
TONE OF BUTTER MARKET FIRM
Sellers of Cubes Ask Full Prices Eastern
Eggs Offered.
There were no new developments In the
butter situation yesterday. Prices were un
changed, but there was an undercurrent
of firmness In the market. Cubes were in
moderate supply and sellers asked 49 cents
for the best.
Oregon ranch eggs were very scarce and
the market was strong at Monday's prices.
A car of freslt easterns Is on the market.
Poultry receipts were of fair size and
generally sold welL Light hens brought
21 cents and springs 25 cents. Receivers
ask up to 55 tents for dressed turkeys, but
there is little demand for them as yet.
The Impression prevails in the trade that
this high price cannot be maintained.

"Wheat prices have been nearly steady
for over a week and flour prices have like
wise shown little fluctuation at the lowest
levels ot the year.
"Few sales of Canadian flour are now
reported, as the decline in the domestic
product has overcome the former's price

CAREY Flexible Cement Roof
ing is still giving good service
on buildings where it was ap
plied 25 to 30 years ago.
How much longer it will last no
body knows. The Emit of its en
durance has not yet been found.
One feature that accounts for its
long life is the quality of the extra
heavy felt that forms the base.
Another feature is tne carefully
refined, tempered asphalt with
which it is built up. This process
is the product of 47 years' experi
ence in roof rnaking.
Another unusual feature is the
burlap top which is saturated and
coated with asphalt cement; and
the Carey patent burlap lap, which
covers the nail heads and protects
them from ever rusting off.
' No other brand of asphalt roof
ins; in roll form has aver given,
or can be expected to give, auch
